Hot drink, benefit and harm, dangerous than the boiling water
How to choose the right temperature brewing tea
We already know that each requires its own brand of tea brewing temperature. Thus fermented teas require high temperatures, and welding of the whole, not twisted leaves less should be filled with hot water. It operates a pattern: the tightly coiled sheet, the higher the temperature of the water to make it. A less than the saturated color of tea leaves than it is more delicate, the lower the water temperature should be for its brewing.
Thus, you need boiling water to brew black tea, and fermented teas (roasted and leaf puerh, red tea and oolong).
The water temperature for brewing unfermented or partially fermented teas which include tea flower and yellow, should be 85-95 ° C.
A unfermented green and white tea to be brewed with water heated to 70-85 ° C. By the way, these are the usual tea drinking majority of fans of green tea.
The hot water is dangerous?
According to statistics, the majority of patients with cancer of the esophagus and larynx, excluding smokers and alcohol abusers, are admirers of very hot beverages.
Studies have confirmed that hot drink that is beverages, with temperatures exceeding 70 ° C leads to increased risk of developing throat cancer. This is due to the fact that excessively hot fluid damages the mucosal epithelium of the throat, causing the development of atypical cells. And to exclude the possibility of developing cancer of the throat and esophagus must learn to drink the liquid temperature below 60 ° C.
Furthermore, as a result of addiction to hot drink suffers not only the throat and esophagus that has no nerve endings and therefore does not allow to feel that it is something wrong, but the tooth enamel and oral mucosa.
Hot drinks and food weaken the local immune system, disrupt the function of the upper respiratory tract, why can develop chronic tonsillitis, sore throat and starts to bother frequent cough and sore throat.
Of course, the constant burning of the mouth, we will hurt them, and make vulnerable, increasing the likelihood of infection in the mouth. Moreover, the habit of drinking hot and there is a gradual failure of the taste buds, which are already with age gradually wasting their functions.
Also protect unheated food is the fact that the hot food quickly absorbed by the body, and wishing to lose weight it is better to have unheated food to be digested slowly. Exception - ice cream, which is not suitable growing thin.
There is a solution, do not eat or drink boiled water. Let drink (food) has cooled down, and if you wait there is no way to drink in small sips, and should slowly. There is a national way of determining the optimal temperature beverage suitable for you. You just need to take a cup of tea (coffee, etc.) in the arm and hand if the temperature is acceptable, then the drink will not be too hot for you.
How to determine the temperature of the brewing water
If you do not have a kettle that can be set to a certain temperature hot water, then try to determine the stage of boiling alone. Though in terms of the Chinese, and there are 7 stages of boiling water, let us consider only the brightest of them.
The first stage of boiling water, called "fish eye" is the stage of initial boiling point of the liquid when its temperature is about 70-80 ° C. At this stage, the water begins to make noise, and rise from the bottom of the kettle small bubbles.
The second stage of boiling water - "white-key" received its name because of the abrupt change in the color white, which is caused by a large number of rising bubbles. A second part of the name "key" due to the fact that the water is almost in full swing. This stage can be called a boil the noisiest and most short. The water is being heated to 80-92 ° C. Conventional teas (even tea bags) is best brewing water is such a temperature.
The final stage, called "a storm rolls" - this is the stage of active boiling point of water, the temperature of which is approximately 100 ° C. Recognize it is very easy to actively bubbling virtually all the water in the kettle.
If now you do not remove the kettle from the fire on the surface of the water appear bursting bubbles and sprinkles. This water is not suitable for brewing, it will overboiled. And, of course, do not have boiled water to boil again.
Remember that to make tea or coffee is not like overboiled and not a boiling water that has not reached the first stage of a boil.
An interesting fact is that determine the stage of boiling water and it can be the sound that is heard most clearly in the samovar. So the first stage of the boil will sound quiet, subdued, the second - like noise swarm of bees, and the third will be to grow and become lower.
But there is an easier way to get water the right temperature, just cool it to the desired temperature. If the decant water from one cup to another, each time will be lost about 5-10 ° C.
And of course the most popular way to get rid of the bitterness characteristic of many varieties of tea, this is a decrease in water temperature when brewing, even by only 5 ° C.
Secrets of hot drinks
As we have already identified, any hot drink can ruin the water, that is, the wrong brew it. But, moreover, the quality of the water is strongly influenced by the taste and useful properties of a drink. Therefore, tap water, unless you are sure that it is of good quality, it is better to pass through the filter, or at least to defend. Most can be considered as a suitable source of water.
It is also possible to determine the correctness of the brewing process in the brewing of "behavior" of the tea leaves, who will swim right temperature, gradually sinking to the bottom of the cup or teapot. If the water is not hot enough, the tea leaves will remain on its surface. When the water is too hot, they immediately fall down.
Another secret of good tea - a foam that appears at the end of the infusion, it should not be removed, it would indicate the correctness of your actions.
Use hot alcoholic beverages
Here at once is worth to mention that, even hot, with the addition of spices, fruits, juices, etc., alcohol is alcohol, which means that one glass of mulled wine on a cold winter evening will bring more good than harm, and will remain so if one glass .
The warming effect of alcohol is due to its ability to dilate blood vessels, improving circulation. And calculate the allowable amount of alcohol is quite simple.
So the woman is safe for health can drink 20 ml of ethanol, and the man - 30ml. So much alcohol will be mulled wine without cognac (wine only) when the water will be exactly half, that is, the fortress should get about 5-6%. Simply put, a woman, observing all the rules of the beverage can drink it with 400 ml, and the man - 600.
Spices, fruit, honey, juices are a perfect complement to the hot alcoholic beverages. These as well as alcohol have vasodilating activity and possess other properties. Specifically, cinnamon able to reduce the level of cholesterol, giving the drink a distinctive flavor and sweet taste. If you add a drink of ginger, you can speed up the metabolism, and this root would act soothingly. The use of cardamom in a positive impact on the digestive system. Fruits, especially citrus fruits, vitaminize beverage, despite the fact that the heating is not particularly conducive to the process. Do not forget that alcohol is very high in calories, especially if you drink it hot.
