How much caffeine is in Germany Rooibos Honig?

Germany Rooibos Honig is naturally caffeine-free, so each 8 oz cup (240 ml) serving contains no measurable caffeine.

What temperature should I use for Germany Rooibos Honig?

Target 100°C (212°F). Below this range the cup tends toward sourness and thinness from under-extraction; above it, bitterness rises faster than sweetness.

How long should Germany Rooibos Honig be extracted?

Extract for 5–8 min using Teapot or Cup, at a ratio of 3–4g per 250ml water, prepared at Rooibos Needle / Cut. Time and ratio move together: a heavier dose generally wants a shorter contact time.

Why does my Germany Rooibos Honig taste bitter?

Bitterness almost always indicates over-extraction. Shorten the contact time, lower the water temperature slightly, or use less leaf. Change one variable at a time so you can tell which one was responsible.

Who should avoid Germany Rooibos Honig?

Pregnancy: generally regarded as safe; standard caution applies. Honey added: those with diabetes or blood sugar concerns should factor added honey into their dietary intake. Kidney oxalates: rooibos contains naturally occurring oxalates; very high intake may be a concern for those with oxalate-sensitive kidney conditions.
