This is bloody interesting, http://www.tested.com/science/weird/451668-dispelling-myth-tea-bag-dipping/ still cant find anything about crushing my teabag though
Ha its all in this thread, I knew I wasn't going mad, and like it says, one or two squeezes to get the excess water out or you get the bitter tannin rich taste http://www.reddit.com/r/tea/comments/118d8o/do_you_squeeze_your_teabags/ I don't actually bash f** out of my tea bags with a spoon, but I do squeeze them, maybe two or three squeezes, no more edit: againts the side of the mug while still submergered
