## What is Time for Tea?

Save your teas (giving the brewing temperature and time) and cups (giving the cup volume and top diameter). When you're ready to make a cup of tea, choose your tea and cup and the app will generate two timers - a cooling timer and a brewing timer - specific to the tea and cup. 

The cooling timer counts down the time to wait after pouring boiling water into the cup for the brewing temperature (e.g. 70°C for green tea) to be reached. The brewing timer then counts down the time from when the tea is added to the water in the cup to when it should be removed. The result is a perfectly brewed cup of tea!

## Key features

- Save custom tea brewing profiles
- Save cup dimensions

### 4/5 — Useful and intuitive, would like to add a higher capacity cup

*2024-11-28*

Thank you for making this, it is very helpful! Could you allow cups with higher capacity than 500mL? I have a 750 mL tea pot that I’d like to use this with.

**Developer response:** Glad to hear that you find the app useful! I will look into adding higher capacities for teapots.

### 5/5 — Works beau-tea-fully

*2022-03-30*
