Difference Between Pu Erh Tea Cake Press Method

2022-07-04 15:25:59

There used to be a widely circulated concept: handmade must be better. Hand-pressed tea cakes are more "humane", with less strength, better preservation of tea strips, and less loss of inner quality. Is that really true?
To put it simply: of course, handcraft is good, and there is also a unique place in machinery. There is no difference between good and bad. Generally speaking, machine-pressed Pu-erh tea cakes are more tightly pressed by gravity than manual stone mills, but in fact, tea cake forming machines can also be loosely pressed, and stone mills can also be pressed tightly (as long as the stone mills are heavy enough). Generally speaking, 14.15 kg presses 357 grams of cake, and about 10 kg presses 200 grams of cake.
For the same Pu-erh tea, pressing or loosening has a certain influence on the transformation of tea cakes: although the transformation is slower, the rhythm of the throat will be more abundant; Each has its own merits. The medium and small leaf species are suitable for compacting, and the large leaf species are suitable for loosening. The wild type is suitable for loosening, and the cultivated type is suitable for pressing. Pressing is more suitable for areas with high humidity and high temperature. If the muffins are not stored properly, it is easy to mildew. Loose pressing is relatively more suitable for areas with low humidity and dryness, and the transformation of tea cakes is relatively slow. If you want to transform faster, you can store loose pressed tea cakes.
