Dry Goods! As the Rainy Season Rages, How Should Pu’er Tea Be Stored in Different Regions?
Recently, there has been frequent rainfall in South China, posing a challenge for storing Pu'er tea. Proper handling can lead to better transformation of the tea, while improper handling can cause issues such as mold. Storage has become a challenge, as different regions have varying climates, so is there a difference in storage methods? Don't worry, after reading this article, you will find answers to these questions. The Four Factors Affecting Pu'er Tea Storage When the same Pu'er tea is stored in different environments, the final aged quality will vary. The four factors that significantly influence the quality of Pu'er tea storage are "temperature," "humidity," "light protection," and "air." These play the most significant role in the transformation process of Pu'er tea during storage. 1. Temperature: Temperature plays a crucial role in the transformation of Pu'er tea. Excessively high temperatures can cause the tea to develop off-flavors; in excessively low temperatures, the transformation process slows down or even stops. Therefore, a relatively suitable temperature is essential for storing Pu'er tea. The temperature for storing Pu'er tea should not be too high or too low, and it is recommended to maintain it around 25°C ± 3°C. 2. Humidity: Humidity is also… -
Puer Tea Sealed vs. Ventilated Storage Comparative Experiment
Puer Tea Sealed Storage Experiment Sealed storage of Puer tea inevitably involves the issue of oxygen supply in the warehouse. According to post-fermentation theory, Puer tea requires oxygen and a certain level of humidity for post-fermentation, so the tea storage warehouse needs to be ventilated to allow the tea to undergo post-fermentation. However, many people have found that when tea is stored under ventilated conditions, while the infusion color turns red, it loses its aroma after two or three years, and the bitterness and astringency do not diminish over time. Additionally, under ventilated conditions, the tea's aroma naturally cannot be preserved. In fact, the later changes in Puer tea are influenced by two factors: one is microbial fermentation, which is an external effect; the other is the action of active enzymes within the tea leaves, which is an internal effect. After sealing and controlling the humidity, Puer tea does not require microbial fermentation, but instead relies primarily on the active enzymes present in the tea to facilitate its transformation. When storing tea in a sealed and oxygen-deprived environment, how would Puer tea change? This question led me to conduct an experiment on the effects of oxygen in sealed storage. Experimental… -
Three Methods for Storing Pu’er Tea!
When storing Pu'er tea, it's important to ensure it is sealed, protected from light, free of odd odors, well-ventilated, and kept at a moderate temperature and humidity. Generally speaking, there are three methods for storing Pu'er tea. The first method involves placing the tea in a Kraft paper bag, squeezing out excess air, sealing the bag, and keeping it in a study or tea room. The second method is suitable for frequently accessed or opened Pu'er tea, which can be wrapped in cotton paper and stored in a jar. The third method is for whole bundles of Pu'er tea, which should be stored in their original packaging and sealed in a cardboard box. Three Methods for Storing Pu'er Tea Method One: Kraft Paper Bag For individual cakes or small quantities of Pu'er tea, Kraft paper bags can be used. 1. Take a clean Kraft paper bag, place the Pu'er tea inside, squeeze out any excess air, and seal the bag. Most bags have zip closures for convenience. 2. If you have several cakes, package them individually and store them in a dry area such as a study or tea room, ensuring good ventilation. For areas with excessive moisture, it's best…
