Unless you love yourself some goat milk, plant extracts like soy juice or almond juice are NOT milk and in the EU it is outlawed to call them milk. Milk comes from the mammary glands of a mammal. Further the traditional cup of tea and milk in Britain is cow's milk. The argument about full milk, semi-skimmed (2-3.5%) or skimmed (1-2%) is another question.

"What is up with matpat in this picturer? Is he alright?" As a longtime viewer I will tell you, and anyone who watches him regularly will verify... No, no he is not. It's was FNAF that did it, that series changed him. Some say it was demonic possession, others say he found one of the Old Ones buried in that lore. Regardless of the truth, his mental health can be directly mapped onto a chart of how long between FNAF episodes he's gone. That picture is doubtlessly fresh after having to review the FNAF lore to compare against Security Breach.

I believe the milk on the bottom or top making a difference is that milk is denser than tea, so when poured on the bottom you have to stir it up into the tea. Whereas when you pour it on top, it naturally seeps throughout the tea making it a much more consistent stir.

Further addendum: I also speculate that there's more of a temperature "shock" when hot liquid is poured over cold milk causing accelerated curdling (that sour taste mentioned in the vid) that simply doesn't occur the other way 'round.

If he had tested different types of milk, then he should've tested different types of tea. I think they didn't mainly cause people are going to drink the tea they like with the milk they prefer (if any at all), and the points proven in this test can be applied more or less regardless of tea or milk preference, so there was no real point of trying those.

I believe the reason Matpat didn't research different kinds of milk is that theoreticaly things like almond "milk" aren't actually considered milk (according to the FDA). British tea (in it's original way as mentioned in the video) demands milk and therefore replacement products are probably out of the race.

Until a few years ago I actually never even knew that people actually put milk in their tea Everywhere in my country the normal way to drink black tea is with just a little bit of sugar and/or a little bit of lemon and it is supposed to have at least a bit of that bitter aftertaste (but not that much) tea with milk just feels like watered down milk with a weird aftertaste

here’s my guess on why the teapot was cooler than the cup: mat poured hot water into a cold teapot, which cooled the water slightly, then once brewed, was poured into a cold cup, dropping the temperature further than what 3 minutes in an open top cup would cool it, despite the teapot losing less heat from the brew time. by simply adding the hot water to a cold cup, the water temperature only drops once, as the tea then brews in the warmed cup and is drunk out of it. if mat had boiled the water directly inside of the teapot, i would imagine the difference would be much smaller, or possibly hotter than the cup.

as boat said decanting causes a change of temperature because the liquid has to pass through the air in order to reach the new vessel then it has to collect in the new vessel during which it is exposed to the atmosphere around it. so when pouring cool liquids in a warm environment it will get warmer faster then if it was left in one container and hot liquids will cool faster .

@OmegaCKL well said, MatPat clearly did not know that we Brits used TEA COSIES to keep a pot Warm between brewing's for that reasons - Though the Cosy is a relic of History these days... Also, the tea being cooler from a Teapot is not essentially a bad thing - We have to consider how and when Teapots were most often used... When you had Guests! Now, Me as an Individual love my Tea to be as HOT AS LAVA!!! But If I have Guests, Then I would break out the Teapot - As not everyone is going to want to burn their mouths or make a McDonalds LolSuit... It was for Mass Consumption and so that All Guests could enjoy a nice Warm cup of Tea at a reasonable temperature ... And was also a god way of stopping people over staying their welcome! Much as I am going to edit my comment I left for Patters... Tea Drinking and Brewing is a very Individual Thing - Is there a way to make the objectively Perfect "Cup of Tea" - ABSOLUTLY! But do we all follow that rule? NO! We are individuals after all!

And the moral of this video is: Never mess with a British man's tea.

Reason why the teapot was cooler: pouring the hot water in a cold pot, it cools off a bit as it warms the pot while steeping. Then when you pour the tea into a cold cup, it cools down further as it warms the cup!

im so glad that they mentioned the difference between the size of the leaves and the brewing time. 3-5 minutes is perfect if you're using actual leaves but the nearly powdered stuff they have in the bags absolutely doesn't need to be in there that long unless you are gonna sweeten it big time

as far as vessels go just don't brew it in plastic. like any kind of ceramic or glass is fine, metal is fine, no plastic. and that includes "paper" cups because those are usually lined with plastic to keep it water-proof, so it still tastes like plastic. you can transfer it in to one of those cups AFTER it's been brewed and has cooled a bit, but don't brew it in them.

I suspect it’s because a tea pot is ment to hold more water than a cup, so when they put the same amount of water in both you simply didn’t get the benefit of the closed space of the tea cup. Rather the water ended up with a very large surface area to lose heat instead. That’s just a thought though. I usually fill up my tea pot entirely when making tea in it and it always stays hotter than a cup does.

My step-dad boils several teabags in a small saucepan, the mixture in a pitcher, adds a cup of sugar, then fills it with water and puts it in the fridge to drink throughout the week. This isn’t rage bait, this is real, and I never realized how weird it was.

I think MattPat and the gang are using basic ingredients for their experiment because they probably considered that this would be a aon-tea drinker (like me) first step in giving tea a try. Also the specific milk type and how much + tea leaves is down to personal preference. I think they were just going for your big standard basic black milk tea, where someone can teak it on their own if they wanted.

If I had to guess, the reason for the teapot cooling faster is its shape. The teapot is larger and more spherical than the mug, meaning that more tea is exposed to the surface of the pot and therefore more surface area is available for heat to escape through the pot.

Pretty sure the way they put milk and top and bottom was different is because they didn't use a spoon to mix it all together. Hence when drinking with milk on top you will take more of milk on top rather than tea.

The only teas I ever knew were either lipton teabags or literally just water and free-floating bits of tea leaves served in every chinese resto ever. Because of they were always bitter AF I got used to dumping sugar into the tea to make it drinkable. Milk in tea wasn't a thing until boba became popular.

My favourite tea: About 3/5 of the mug is boiled water. The rest is milk. Two to three cubes of sugar. Mix ut up a bit, and presto. Oh, right, and then put the tea bag there at the end. Or pour some quick coffee from a bag. It's interchangable really

6:32 The reason you put milk in your cup BEFORE pouring Tea into it, is because cheaper china cups could crack from the heat of the hot tea, so you put the milk in first to reduce the heat shock from the tea. And as you point out first, this is fine because you've brewed the tea in the teapot first, but if you were brewing it straight into a modern day mug, you'd want to put the milk in last. I'd also suggest that if you add sugar, you should add it before the milk, because it dissolves more easily. Adding it after the milk is also valid, but you shouldn't add it before the teabag, because it hinters the tea dispersion.

I heat my water in a microwave, use no milk, add a little bit of sugar or honey, and leave the tea bag in for the entire time that I am drinking that tea.

You can also do more than just a splash if milk/cream don't gatekeep tea.

Oh, also, they should've looked to the originators of tea, the Chinese.

I have been waiting for this ever since I suggested this video on discord. Really happy you accepted my suggestion Pat.

The teapot might of cooled faster due to the fact that hot air escaping could only escape through the small holes in the contained pot. I.e., the hot air and high pressure jetting out is more faster and hotter meaning more heat loss.

So first off, I'm French Canadian and my grandfather, rest in peace, made what i like to call, due to how it was described to me by my poor mother, "warcrime tea". So he woke up at 5 am roughly measured enough water for several cups in a thick glass kettle, tossed it on the hob and put in 3-4 bags of tea (Over here in my neck of the great white north, the popular brand at the time was Red Rose tea, an Orange Pekoe, for those curious. the brand is still going strong and i do have a soft spot for it). after drinking a couple of cups, he'd put the kettle off the direct heat and left it there to warm throughout the day. later around dinner he'd get home, add more water and a bag or two, let it heat up and get another cup or two. repeat until after supper when he's done work and reading the newspaper with a cup of tea before ending the night. Now, you might be guessing at the sheer warcrimes going on, because my poor mum, bless her heart, was the one who decided when her father had had enough and cleaned out that kettle. The kettle that, by the end of the day had been steeping in some form from 5am to 8pm, constantly, with 7-9 tea bags freely floating, some having been there since the start of the day. Mum described as it the darkest, foulest and most vile leaf broth, strong enough to put hair on your chest. And as someone who drinks their tea with no milk or sugar and prefers a longer steep, i might have inherited my grandfather's distinct taste for stronger teas (though even i fear to thread the roads my grandfather made, for that way looks like the path to madness).

I am a tea drinker but prefer green and herbal teas. I have had the opportunity to try English tea made a a group of 4 English tea drinkers, but still choose an herbal tea with 2 sugars as the better option.

The whole time staring directly into his eyes while I do this whole process. Then when he wakes up.... The glass of tea is still there and still warm....

I don't exactly have a teapot other than a Asian style one with the handle on the side for pouring...but my maternal grandmother had a few teacup sets...specifically one for Christmas (her favorite holiday of all), and one from a dining set called "blue willow" that comes with various sized plates and a teacup and saucer combo..same for the Christmas set..which also came with a butter dish and cover. My grandmother however was NOT a big tea drinker, she just got the cups with the sets cause they came like that, I am the tea drinker in the family for hot tea...I'm from the southern US so 90% of tea drunk in the house is cold sweet tea even during winter..which is still a black tea blend but just sweetened...I've been cutting back on the sugar though and for a gallon of sweet tea I put in..around 4-5 sugar cubes and then about 2 tablespoons of baking soda. If we talk hot teas though my preferred tea is Oolong tea..I've only recently (like THIS YEAR recently) tried black tea with milk..it's not bad but I'm so used to Oolong and Sweet Tea that it's gonna have to grow on me. I wonder if my Irish ancestors on my maternal grandmother's side are screaming at me sometimes for that lol.

this video made me want tea. i didnt have any tea. i went to the store at night to just get tea. worth it

The risk of doing the Cold ~4C, for an optimally kept fridge, milk first is that the shock of the ~100C water can cause the milk to curdle and turn sour, its why you get the floaty white bits...those are milk curds this can also happen with coffee.

I have a mug that like, ok imagine a Christmas mug, now imagine it comically large (the size of a human head) that's the mug I have, and just to be funny, I am going to pour myself a comical amount of tea

Matpat: even National news reported on it. Also News: "in the game, player's shadow comes out looking like a dog

I was taught that milk was place in first came from when we used China tea cup and milk was to cold the boiling water to prevent the cup from cracking.

Part of why the teacup may be colder is because of the pour, allowing more surface area for loosing heat

When I drink milk tea I use about 4 to 1 ratio but I always drink milk tea with some sort of scented or flavoured teas like Earl Grey or Autumnal and brew it heavier let it release more tannen and become slightly darker than when I drink same tea without milk.

Cool, now you need to make a video reviewing the tea they made by following their steps (including the 26ml of milk) to see how similar it is to what you drink, and if it's better

When the subject of putting milk in first then the tea from the teapot it was originally done because the teacups that were use was gone china which was incredibly thin and if the hot tea was place in the cup fist it would crack or break so milk was placed first so the tea would be cool down enough so that wouldn't happen because of course bone china was very expensive at the time??? At least that's what I heard???

You can solve the different of milk on top or bottom by mixing both with a spoon.

Drop everything, the new food theory is super hilarious

I'm from the American South {admittedly Kentucky so barely}, but in my sippy cup was iced sweet tea. No milk & never hot, often on ice for volume even of summer, & with so much sugar mixed in, that for folks around here, if you could specifically taste the "orange pekoe and black" you did it 'wrong'! Long before I even tried to figure out how to make a solitary cup of tea, I learned to make "sun tea", steeping a great big glass jar or jug in the summer sun for a couple hours, toss those old plain teabags, mix in sugar & refrigerate, similar to 'cool-ade'. [Alternatively yet similarly, especially in winter, we might just brew a high-strength tea concentrate in a saucepan, mix in sugar, & chill.] To this day, tea with milk seems weird, but so does coffee WITHOUT milk or creamer!

2:04, ouch that hurts as a Canadian lol.

Ah yes brits the originators and experts. *2000+ years of asian tea culture just death staring ya in the back*

2:05, Me going to make tea: Time for maple syrup

The first and strongest heat transferring occurs not with air but with the tea pot itself... the teapot is cold and the mug is too... but the amount of cold material in the tea pot is bigger... therefore when having the same amount of water as it happened in the test... the same one cup of water was robbed of a full tea pot's worth of heat... Had the volume of water been the full tea pot then the teapot would have been hotter... does not scale up exactly but when you double the size of a cube you get 8 times the volume whereas the area is just incres by a factor of 4... that is because volume has 3 factores multiplied while area only has 2 in very simplistic terms... so more area to spread the heat of the tea pot for the same volume... the colder the tea will be

Teapot, the heat soaks into the ceramic teapot and stays there when you pour, helping keep the tea that hasn't been poured to stay warm. Then, the teacup will soak up more heat, cooling the tea further, as well as exposing a wide surface area to cool off via radiative cooling.

But, again for unsweet, we add nothing to it. It's just water that's been boiled in a kettle/pan (given on if it's a cup or pitcher,) and then steeping it for 15-20 min (cup) or 25-30 (pitcher.)

I make tea pretty much how Patterrz describes despite being an American with no knowledge of the "proper" way to make tea, I basically figured it out myself based on what people I know have told me and my experience making tea

Not British, but I've been drinking tea for as long as I can remember courtesy of my grandparents. I very rarely put anything in it. Just tea and water. Once in a blue moon I might drop a peppermint into a glass of earl grey. I feel like adding sugar, milk or whatever just detracts from the taste of the tea. Then again, I also like it as strong as I can brew it.

the teapot had to be poured so the hot tea had to pass through the cool air. the mug however was in one container and only the top was exposed to the air.

I think that the south of usa is the best for american tea because we make iced sweet tea for the summer and spring and hot sweet tea for fall and winter(at least in texas) and trying to put your tea in the microwave is how you find buckshot in your grey matter

From what it sounds like is that 0 to 26 ml of milk is fine depending on your preference but never more than that.

It's intresting that milk in tea is normal while every person I told that I like milk and tea was confused and suprised I remember discovering milk and tea, it was like: ALL THE MILK. It tasted like weird coffee

I bought an electric kettle recently and haven't felt the need to add any sugar or milk to the twinings I use (I can't find any yorkshire near me). Do they improve the flavor that much?

I drink my tea cold… with sugar… I’m southern, iced sweet tea is in my veins.
