A cup of tea resolves everything, but please don't bring me hot water with leaves!

Another failed attempt for afternoon tea makes me wonder if our coffee/tea brewing machine is too old. Of course, our company uses products from Keuring which provide many different brands of tea and coffee. All I have to do is put the tiny "K-cups" into the brewing machine and watch it go. Few seconds later, a hot tea or coffee will be presented automatically. Sounds simple, easy, and fool proof, isn't it?

Unfortunately, this instant method often makes a mess. I never try the coffee but I notice whenever I want to make some tea from the brewing machine, most of time the tea had some fine cut tea leaves floating in the cup. Sometimes it'll even cover up the cup. It's as if someone prepared tea and dump leaves in it. Now who would want to drink THAT?

With all the supposedly "ideal brewing environment", the "ideal pressure", the "ideal pre-heated water" a brewing machine provides, in my opinion nothing beats the good old tea bag. It's just as fast and I can control the concentration with the control of time and dips of tea bag. Of course, nothing beats the good old fashion regular tea leaves. It requires patience, but it's worth the wait. Nothing provides more joy than seeing those tea leaves absorb hot water and slowly expand. It's as if all of today's troubles were absorbed and vaporized with the aroma of the tea.

Did I mention the health benefit of tea?
