## Summary

How to coax a full, malty cup out of decaf English breakfast: rolling boil, a longer steep and milk last. Caffeine-free.

## Description

Getting a good decaf English breakfast comes down to body. Decaffeination can leave a brew tasting thin, so this method is built to pull as much strength and malt from the leaf as possible: a full rolling boil, a slightly longer steep than caffeinated tea needs, and milk added last. Teapigs uses whole leaf in a temple bag, which gives you more to work with to begin with.
