I think it's all a matter of personal preference. For example, on Heather's fennel, it says to use 1-2 T in 8 oz. of water. On other loose teas I get, they usually say anywhere from 1 to 2 tsp. But, Heather does recommend really strong for the benefits. Personally, I can't drink it that strong...I really don't like the taste of fennel though. So, I just mix them. For example, right now I'm steeping a cup that has some peppermint, some fennel, and some chamo all mixed together. I'd say about total there's about 1 - 1 1/2 T in there. (I use the kind that is a strainer that sits right in the mug) If you have a tea ball, don't fill it more than half with tea, because when it gets wet it will need room to expand. And you use the tea one time and you're done with it, you can throw it away.
