2. Store in odorless and dry place since the tea leaves is prone to absorbing unwanted smells like fragrance or moisture especially when dried. Preferably store in separate box or container in a dry and ventilated place with temperature of (24-28°C / 75-82°F). The storage location should avoid direct sunlight and rain. Dispose the teabags if it is accidentally dampened by water during storage since the tea leaves might be contaminated by mold.

4. Use about 100ml (3.38fl oz) to 200ml (6.76fl oz) water per steep depending on your convenience with recommended minimum 500ml (16.90fl oz) and maximum 1 liter (33.81fl oz) consumption per person per day.
5. Best consume warm minutes after steeped. Best to sip a cup of warm tea several times rather than down it all at once. Do not heat up the cold tea water using hot water or any other ways for consumption. Do not consume cold or overnight tea or re-steep used tea bag for next day consumption. This point is especially important for someone that have gastric or stomach problem, eg discomfort or ulcers. Steeped tea will oxidized when left too long before consumption and oxidized tea is less effective to health. Overnight tea or used tea bag(s) can be used for external usage or animal consumption.
