1. Multi-layer sealing: Storing white tea at home, especially in boxes. It is best to strictly "complete" and "fully" use the three-layer packaging method for tea storage. Usually, it refers to multi-layer sealing of cartons, aluminum bags, and plastic bags. The cartons should be standard boxes with 5 layers of corrugated paper thickness, which have a certain support force; the aluminum bags should also be thick and not easily torn and worn, and they should be made of reliable food-grade materials. Prepare all the above materials and start packing. After opening the carton, put on the plastic bag first, then the aluminum bag. Then fill it with tea leaves, put in 2 catties, 3 catties, and 5 catties of complete large boxes of loose tea, and then seal them layer by layer. Only by sealing tightly can we ensure that the good tea in the box does not leak.
2. Do not "casually roll" the mouth of the tea bag: In order to facilitate tea drinking, many tea lovers will take out a small amount of white tea from the sealed large box. In addition, put it in an iron tea storage can. First put a layer of bag inside, then grab about 100 grams of dry tea (estimated to be consumed in about a month). While grabbing the tea, gently shake it to reduce the gaps between the loose tea leaves. Finally, squeeze out the excess air in the bag. Don't let the whole bag of tea look like a pufferfish, just close the lid directly. Otherwise, when the dry tea leaves are in direct and close contact with a lot of air, it will be bad for tea storage.
3. Don't open the box frequently: White tea that was originally sealed in a large box should not be opened frequently. Because every time it is opened and turned over, it will affect the tea in the box. At the least, it will interfere with the aging effect, and at the worst, the whole box will lose air. If it is not necessary, it is best not to open the box. Reduce the frequency of opening, don't let the dry tea be exposed to the air, and it can more effectively prevent water vapor from slowly seeping in.
4. Don't open doors and windows: This is the life experience summary of southerners in dealing with the return of the south wind. In the south wind weather, the wind blows from the distant ocean. It is wrapped with countless warm and humid water vapor, and the air is extremely humid. In this kind of weather, it is a good choice not to open windows and doors less. Moreover, the room for storing tea is different from the daily living room. There is no need to wash dishes and vegetables for three meals a day like in the kitchen, and there is frequent moisture. Even if you occasionally open the window to ventilate the room and bring in fresh air, it is better to choose dry and sunny weather. Moreover, after opening the window for ventilation, it should be closed in time. After a night of rain, a room without doors and windows is bound to be filled with wind and rain.
5. Proper use of dehumidifier: In modern life, "high technology" can be used to store tea to prevent moisture. A relatively simple way is to turn on the dehumidification mode of the air conditioner. After turning on for a few hours, the indoor humidity immediately drops significantly, and the "damp feeling" brought by the humid weather disappears immediately. However, what is more effective than air conditioning dehumidification is to add a special dehumidifier. After turning on the dehumidification mode, water vapor can be continuously absorbed and stored in the water tank. What you need to do at ordinary times is to pour water after the water tank is full of water regularly, and you can continue to work. Spring is humid, so turning on the dehumidification properly can keep the room at a relatively comfortable level.
6. Stay away from the ground floor: Last year, a tea lover in Hengyang reported that he put several boxes of tea in his old house last year. He put them in the storage room at the corner of the stairs on the first floor. However, a year later, he went to check again. The outermost carton was slightly damp when he touched it, which made people worry about the situation inside. When he opened it for inspection, as expected, the dry tea had a weak fragrance. He grabbed a handful of tea leaves and brewed them, but they were not as mellow as before. This was obviously a problem with the storage. In fact, the ground floor is a "dangerous area" for storing tea.
