Here’s a clean, repeatable method for you.
How to Brew Crushed Leaf Kratom Tea — Step-by-Step
Gear
- Digital scale (grams)
- Reusable tea bag (cotton/muslin) or fine mesh infuser
- Electric kettle with set & hold temp
- Spoon or tongs for pressing the bag
- Timer
Ratio (baseline)
- The average Kava bar uses 6 g crushed leaf per 12 fl oz water
(that’s 0.5 g per fl oz | ~17 g per liter) to make their Kratom drinks. - Always test the amount you want to use; everyones body reacts differently to different amounts.
Quick scaling
- 24 oz → 12 g
- 1 liter (33.8 oz) → ~17 g
- ½ gallon (64 oz) → 32 g
- 1 gallon (128 oz) → 64 g
Temperature
- Heat water to 165–175°F (≈ 74–80°C).
- Do not boil—This will kill the alkaloids in the Kratom
Brew Steps
- Measure & bag
Weigh your crushed leaf (e.g., 6 g per 12 oz). Load it into a tea bag/infuser and tie/close securely. - Heat water
Set the kettle to 170°F (in the 165–175°F window) and enable hold. This works best in a temperature-set tea kettle. - Steep
Add the tea bag to the 170°F water. - Hold the temp & time it
Keep between 165–175°F for at least 30 minutes. For a fuller extraction, steep 1–2 hours.- If you don’t have an active “hold,” briefly re-warm the vessel as needed.
- Agitate periodically
Every 10–15 minutes, lift and press the bag with a spoon/tongs and give the tea a gentle stir. Re-submerge. - Finish & press
At time, lift the bag and press firmly to return liquid to the vessel. Discard or save the leaf for a second, lighter pull. - Serve or chill
Serve warm, or cool and refrigerate. Label date/time.
Optional (common bar tweaks)
- Acid assist (taste & extraction): add ~1 tsp lemon juice per 12 oz (or a tiny pinch of citric acid) at the start. Citrus binds to the alkaloids, making them more potent. This will also lower the PH making your drink last longer when stored in the refrigerator. Add just right after you’re done brewing.
Storage
- Refrigerate in a sealed container; use within 4–6 days for best quality. Stir before serving—sediment is normal.
Safety & compliance notes
- Do not serve to minors; avoid combining with alcohol or sedatives.
- Check and follow local laws/regulations on kratom.
- This is not medical advice; do not make health claims on menus.
