This post also confirms what I have heard other people say about not needing as much for a dose because the tea method pulls more alkaloids out. I've heard some people say that they cut their dose by 50%. Super simple and a very nice post. This is perfect.

Aren't you in the kratom biz and should know this?

I have kind of a long process for tea, but it works for me: I weigh out the desired amount of leaf, put it in the bottom of a cup. Capful of lemon juice on top, mix it up, let it sit and saturate for a few minutes until most of the powder is visibly wet. 190F water over the top, leave it to "steep" for an hour or so, come back and add some baking soda to neutralize the citric acid... let it continue to cool to room temperature, pop it in the freezer overnight. In the morning I take it out and either pop the red bubble "ice cube" into my coffee (which is hot and therefore melts it) or pop it in the blender with some fruit and yogurt for a smoothie.

It sounds more complicated than it is, but so does anything when you write out each and every step, especially when you're verbose like me.

Echoing the sentiment that you need more leaf for tea if you strain it. When I was straining mine through an Aeropress, I had to use 1.5-2x the amount of powder to get anything from it. The red bubble process allows me to use my normal dose, but I don't bother with straining anymore. (I'll take a somewhat-grainy cup of coffee over the naked taste of kratom any day - I tried to throw back my tea like a shot once and almost threw up. It REALLY does not agree with me taste-wise.)

No, No, No... exactly the opposite. As others have said... You need MORE kratom when brewing Tea... not Less.

Those old "tutorials" from 4 years ago, are ridiculous ppl should stop sharing them. Plain water, with no Acid ?? Using only 2.5 grams for 64 ounces Tea ??

So one Cup serving, would be .3 tenths of 1 gram ?? I mean... I've heard Less Is More but his "tutorial" method is silly. Which many people have pointed out over the years... Kratom is a constant fight for Truth VS mis-information.

There are MUCH better "tutorials" on Tea making here on MM.... Use the Search Bar. Try a search on "Aeropress". Really works. Like a million times better than pouring your Tea through a dirty sock!!
