I recently picked up some loose chai tea from my local wegmans. I know they have pretty quality foods, so i figured their tea would probably be good as well. So i don't know much about chai, but it smelled good and looked good, so i bought a bunch and went home. I put some in my tea ball (about 1 inch diameter) and poured the hot water over it. After letting it steep the liquid was still very see-through and it tasted terrible. The next day i tried again and the liquid was near opaque and it was delicious. Now everytime i brew a cup i run the risk of it being terrible or great. I can't figure out what causes it. Is maybe the water temperature off? Could it be my tea ball? I even tried using two tea balls in one cup and it was still see-through. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
