If you're not sure how long to steep your tea for, here's a handy guide. It actually does make a difference to the taste of the tea, as well as to what gets released. (For example, steep green tea in water that is too hot - actually boiling - and it tastes bitter).
Another helpful hint? All the caffeine comes out in the first 30 seconds of steeping. For decaf tea, if it's not already naturally decafeinated, re-use the tea bag or tea leaves!
