pressing factory tour

Today, we're in Mu Nai He, the industrial park of Pu'er city where most tea cakes from the region are pressed. We visit Yang Bin's factory, who has pressed our cakes since 2016.
Let's have a quick unscripted tour and see how our autumn pu-erh teas are treated there. I hope they won't over-dry the cakes!

It would be great to have a tour of pu'er city and your tea shop

Same here! I’m planning to be in Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam & China next yr. A tea tour 😂

I think the thing that impresses me the most in this is the perfect hand wrapping. When I get new cake, I always needle from bottom, middle out to keep the round shape and diligently try to refold the wrapper after each use as part of the act of being present, but it never lasts long.

Oh yes those girls are so skilful, I make a real botched job of rewrapping my cakes after a session. 😂😂

Ooh, this is so insightful! I always wondered how tea was pressed into cakes. Thank you for sharing!

I have just started to take an interest in the pressing process, I even commented under one of the videos a few days ago on this very subject, and today there is a new video on that matter! Thank you!

Nice，friend！

[@jinjunmei]

That was extremely interesting, I never really thought about how a tea cake is actually pressed.

[@Yongy7448]

Are you using a new camera? This footage looks great 👍

[@eriklheureux7879]

Super intéressant comme vidéo! Est-ce que le goût du thé change suite aux opérations de pressage et, si oui, de quelle façon?

[@farmerleaf61]

Juste apres le pressage, le the a un gout de the vert (un peu epinards), ce qui est normal puisque le the a ete passe a la vapeur puis seche a l'air chaud. L'intensite de ce gout parasite depend beaucoup de la temperature de sechage, c'est pour ca qu'il convient de ne pas trop abuser sur le chauffage quand on seche les galettes, evidemment les manufactures ont des contraintes d'espaces, surtout en periode de pointe, et certaines sont tentees de pousser le thermometre pour secher plus rapidement. Ce gout de the vert s'attenue drastiquement en deux semaines et devrait etre imperceptible deux mois apres la presse. Sur le long terme, les galettes et le the en vrac vont evoluer differement. Il est preferable de conserver des galettes si vous voulez aller au dela de dix ans, elles ont tendance a se bonifier de maniere plus consistantes, meme si plus lentement que le the en vrac. Ce sujet serait matiere a quelques discussions passionantes et surtout passionnees dans les manufactures de Menghai.

@@farmerleaf61 Merci beaucoup pour la réponse détaillée. J'apprécie beaucoup. Ça donne envie de faire une dégustation et comparer les deux!

Do you think you'll ever offer faster shipping (eg DHL) on your website?
