In the past two days, some tea friends talked about the storage of tea and asked whether Pu'er tea should be sealed and preserved? What are the requirements for temperature and humidity? ......In this issue, we will talk about the storage of Pu'er tea.
Pu'er tea stored at home should be stored in a dry and cool place, and should not be placed in a ventilated place, as the tea gas is easy to disperse. Although the transformation is relatively slow, it can maintain the authenticity of Pu'er tea. In order to maintain humidity and tea gas, tea can be stored as centrally as possible. If you don't ventilate, it will automatically leak, and the routine will not be absolutely sealed, and the optimal ratio of space to tea is 2:8 or 3:7, so that the tea has an independent and full fermentation space.
To avoid miscellaneous flavors, tea leaves are most likely to absorb odors in the air, so we should also strive to store them in a clean and free environment. Packed with bamboo hoops. The traditional bamboo basket packaging helps the post-fermentation of Pu'er tea, and has the effect of filtering miscellaneous flavors and ensuring purity. If the Pu'er tea that has been disassembled is tightly wrapped in a plastic bag, when the weather and humidity change, mildew and peculiar smell will easily occur, which will destroy the original taste of Pu'er tea, so the suggestion is: do not disassemble the cylinder if there is a tube, and do not open the piece if there is a piece.
Purple sand pots, clay pots, purple sand pots and Yunnan folk clay pots are very suitable for storing Pu'er tea, and you can also put the disassembled tea cakes into the purple sand jar for storage, one is convenient to use, and the other is to let the old tea have a natural awakening process. Sealed iron and tin tea cans are more suitable for the storage of green tea or oolong tea, and are not suitable for storing Pu'er tea.
In the south, the first and most important thing is to prevent moisture and mildew. "Ten years of Pu'er can be scrapped in a moment" Therefore, we must not rush to achieve success; It is necessary to leave the ground and the wall, and it is not appropriate to put it in the basement, the first floor, and the second floor. Everyone should also remember to close the doors and windows, use lime, charcoal or turn on the dehumidifier to dehumidify!
