@supermoon10 @xavier @lazyliteratus @iheartteas @thedevotea I wanted to let you all know that I’ve finished migrating Tea Trade to a new server. I’ll be taking the old one offline next week. This message is being written on the site on the new server.
Everything generally went smoothly. All the sites are working. Geoff, there are problems with…[Read more]

I meant for this to go up last Wednesday, but unfortunately, I lost my draft (due to server optimizations for a better teatra.de; hurray!). This means rewriting my review from memory (could have sworn I had some […]

Did something happen. My logo spontaneously deleted itself, and all of my drafts have disappeared… Including the one I was going to post tomorrow.
-
Perhaps a software update?

Yeah, WordPress seems to have updated at the same time/also the Forums are now missing, I’ve just noticed. I hope maybe the drafts floating around on a server somewhere… Guess I’ll have to redo today’s

@xavier @supermoon10 – I have been doing some optimizations on Tea Trade recently in preparation to move it to a different server. Deleting unused blogs, user accounts that hadn’t been used in years and several gigabytes of unused images. Unfortunately, some used images got caught up in the mix (I was using an automated process – and they don’t…[Read more]

commented on the post, Two Teas from Arunachal Pradesh, on the site Steep Stories 1 week, 5 days ago
Aaah, reminds me of the Simple Leaf, before they closed down; they had a simple Arunachal Pradesh-grown tea named “Dawn”. It was my first love. It spawned a hunt for a replacement tea (when the company shut down) […]

You were always eager to drink mystical teas from mystical gardens (I remember the Goddess one).

lazyliteratus wrote a new post, Two Teas from Arunachal Pradesh, on the site Steep Stories 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Of all the states in India, Arunachal Pradesh is one of the most mysterious and mystical.
I’m not exaggerating. A cursory research glance turned up nothing concrete in regards to an agreed-upon “history” […]

Welcome back.
This book is on my “to find list” and I will wait for your next review of it.

I’m back. I’ve got a lot to write about, I just have to kick myself back into writing gear again. So I’ve finished classes, and I’m graduating in June; I quit my job so I could take an extra heavy last semester […]

Xavier commented on the post, Milking The Tea Clock, on the site Lord Devotea's Tea Spouts 3 weeks, 4 days ago
I barely milk tea and I don’t think I would brew it longer but to everyone its own.
And Happy Birthday to Ms Devotea.

lazyliteratus commented on the post, Milking The Tea Clock, on the site Lord Devotea's Tea Spouts 3 weeks, 4 days ago
Im in the camp of brewing the tea for longer and shorter volume of water before adding to the milk.
But milking a Castleton Moonlight first flush?! Heavens no! Second flush, maybe.

Today is Lady Devotea’s birthday, so there is no better time to talk about the tea issue that sometimes divides us: milk.
I tend not to take milk and she tends to.
Of course, I’m not adverse to a sweet, […]

We moved to England to sell good quality tea. Lasted 3 months. I feel your pain.

Xavier wrote a new post, As long as it is good, on the site Teaconomics 3 weeks, 5 days ago
I often hear or read that tea people are a bit snobbish, asking for loose leaf teas, for specific blends, for specific water quality or temperature.
But what do people mean by that? And is it true?
According to […]

Xavier commented on the post, I want it all, on the site Teaconomics 3 weeks, 5 days ago
For a physical job, it might be a bit more complex as you can’t stock everything and unless you buy a big brand, you don’t have the power of these Internet giants.

Xavier commented on the post, You Say You Don’t “Do” Tea Blends, Huh?, on the site Steep Stories 1 month, 1 week ago
The beginning of your post reminded me of something I read about wine and how some companies were mixing different origins into a single wine (sometimes saying it and sometimes not).
And then the end which […]

“I don’t really do tea blends.”
It’s a phrase that I never thought I’d find myself uttering, but one day—a couple of years ago—I did just that. A blending outfit wondered if I would be willing to cover s […]

I was reading a sci-fi book (not linked to the title of this post as it would be too obvious and by know I think you know me) set in a very far-away future where mankind is no more and what remains are a full […]
