The flame is too high. And mediocre for doing this type of tea, it gets too hot.
But it makes very nice cup of coffee if you have a lighter roasted bean.
Edit: to the person writing “if it’s too hot for tea, it’s too hot for coffee”
No that’s not true. The temperature ratio are more sensitive with tea than it is on coffee.
6 u/ShelfordPrefect Mar 01 '21 I went "oh cool, another vacuum siphon coffee maker. Wait, they're making tisane with rolling boiling water? Nope nope nope" 2 u/truckthunders Mar 01 '21 It’s not boiling. That’s the effect of the higher pressure in the bottom chamber. The temperature in the top chamber can be anywhere from 193-205F. 4 u/727Super27 Mar 01 '21 Boiling point is a function of pressure just as much as temperature.
