The verdict
Where this pick fits.
No heat required. Drop the leaves in, fill with cold water, refrigerate overnight. The fine-mesh filter holds them suspended and slow; eight hours in the cold is a different steep than eight minutes in hot water: rounder, smoother, nothing that bites. Pull the filter when it is done. The pitcher goes straight to the table.
Cold steep, all night. The bitter notes never wake up. It earned its spot in our lineup by solving the stage it's supposed to solve, without pretending to solve every stage after it.
