Did you know that black tea needs 100°C but green tea only 80°C? The Quooker is the perfect tea machine — if you know how.

Why water temperature matters for tea

Most people pour boiling water over any tea. But tea connoisseurs know: temperature makes the difference between a bitter cup and a perfect cup.

Temperature guide per tea type

*With a Quooker Fusion or Flex, you can mix the boiling water with cold water to achieve the perfect temperature.

The Quooker as a tea machine

Advantage 1: Always 100°C A kettle reaches 100°C, but the water cools down quickly while pouring. The Quooker delivers water that is exactly 100°C — every time.

Advantage 2: Exact dosing With the Quooker, you can dispense exactly the amount of water you need. No more half-full kettles that unnecessarily consume energy.

Advantage 3: Instant readiness No 3-minute wait. Fancy a tea? Press the button. Done.

Pro-tip: the perfect mixing ratio

For teas that require lower temperatures, use this rule of thumb with your Fusion or Flex:

Desired tempBoiling:cold ratio
90°C9:1
80°C4:1
70°C3:1
60°C2:1

Tea with sparkling water?

With the CUBE, you can also experiment with sparkling tea — iced tea with bubbles. A refreshing variation on classic iced tea:

  1. Brew strong tea with Quooker water
  2. Let cool completely
  3. Fill the glass with ice cubes
  4. Top up with sparkling CUBE water
  5. Add lemon and mint
