Do you squeeze your teabags?

   When I make tea, after i'm done letting them soak/dunking them, I squueze the teabag(s) until all the remaining tea/liquid is out. I feel like that last remaining bit inside the teabags would be pretty concentrated/have a considerable amount left and its worth getting it out.

   no dude...
   
   another example of white ppl not knowing how to make tea. they always assume that the strongest flavor would produce the best tea, but this is wrong. if you let it brew too long or extract it too much you'll get a bunch of tannins that taste super bitter and are unpleasant in it. you gotta get the water hot but not too hot, and brew for like 2-4 minutes, then just take the bag out and toss it. don't leave it in your tea. that's the other thing white people fuck up about tea a lot.

   If I’m making a pitcher of sweet tea then yes.
   
   If I’m making a cup of hot tea then no.

    I'll give the bag a good swirl or bob it in the water for a bit if I think it's gonna be too weak. Haven't used teabag tea in a while though.
    
    With green tea if you want it to taste the way its supposed to you should let the kettle reach boiling then remove heat for 2 minutes (or a little less) and the temp should be just right for steeping.

    I will usually press it lightly with a spoon, but i don't squeeze.
