Why should Pu'er tea be pressed into tea cakes? 2

Fourth, the pressed tea leaves of Pu’er tea have one more step than loose tea, that is, there will be a process of autoclaving. In this process of autoclaving, the correct use of the tea cake press machine to generate steam will make the tea leaves have a very good humidity. And this temperature plus a good and suitable temperature is just the best environment for microbial activity and reproduction, which can accelerate the expansion of beneficial bacteria and kill harmful microorganisms faster, thus providing better conditions for later transformation. . ​​
Fifth, the post-fermentation of Pu-erh tea is a very long process, and this process mainly uses biological enzymes as catalysts to promote the response of microorganisms in the tea leaves, and if the tea leaves are isolated by oxygen, they will be isolated. The beneficial bacteria will die too quickly, then the tea will be carbonized prematurely.
In general, the ancient pressed cake of Pu'er tea is for the convenience of transportation, while the modern pressed cake is supported by science, which proves that the pressed cake has more advantages than loose tea in the process of transformation.
