Did you get the loose or bags? Either way, because I like mine STRONG, I would only use it once.... I steep mine in for 5 to 10 minutes....most of the time..I just leave the bag in the mug/cup until I'm done drinking it all....

Does that help?

I double bag & brew long & strong. I do this with mint, too.
Yes, it works WONDERS! I don't recommend re-using bags or loose tea leaves. Brew fresh & do not hyper-dilute. I go for POTENT!

I started doing this as well- 2 tea bags, steep 10 minutes and leave in until done drinking. stronger is the only way I feel relief with the fennel.

If an 8oz cup then one bag... otherwise if it's a bigger one then I double bag it too!!
