uSpez , you did the right thing by admitting that you messed up . <| sep |> Okay , someone tell me how the guy in glasses does his rolls like in 050 and 231 I don ' t think it ' s lipclick rolls , and it ' s definitely not fast tk ' s . <| sep |> can someone explain how the mystery crew got into that situation to me ? <| sep |> Hey ! I worked hard for my 3 . 5 at my state school . You sound really stressed though , just chill . It ' s not the end of the world . I ' m sure you ' ll get in and if not with those stats you ' ll probably land something better . <| sep |> about 2 or 2 . 5 teaspoons There ' s your problem . Don ' t measure tea by volume , get a 0 . 1 gr precision scale . Measuring in teaspoons works for stuff like flour , salt , sugar , and only when you have a proper measuring spoon . Tea is all over the place volumewise though . 150 ml gaiwanI would recommend putting 1 gr per 20 ml , which means about 78 gr for this gaiwan . With a lot of teas , Wu Yi as well , you can get away with putting quite a bit more provided you do flash steeps . 200 F waterI ' d just use boiling , especially if you ' re using a gaiwan . Aside from green tea and even then there are some exceptions virtually all teas should take boiling water just fine .
