I personally follow the ISO 3103 standard when I'm brewing tea.

As a collector of knowledge of limited utility and a lover of various kinds of tea you have just made my day.

I'm totally going to start telling people I use the ISO 3103 standard for my tea preparation.

And here I was, thinking that the ISO Standard Cup of Tea from the Jargon File was just a joke.

I hope you're drinking black tea. ISO 3103 ruins most oolongs and just about all greens. :(

Great, now I'll have to check the volume of my cups.
