rue tannins?

[Parshvik Chintan]

does rue have a high enough content of tannins to warrant an egg white fining?

Try out half brew with egg white tannin removal, half without.. Drink them both on separate ocasions, and let us know, I would be curious on what you report back

so far i have been unable to get 100% of the egg to congeal, leaving a cloudy tea, even after reduction and multiple filtrations.

im gonna let it sit in the fridge for a day or three, see if that helps the egg settle to the bottom.

yea, i am unable to get the egg to fully separate. so it looks like fining is not the way to go for rue...

I sort of feel like the agar agar approach works better and is less gross than the egg white approach.

for caapi and mimosa, egg whites work like a dream.

all the egg gets cooked and filtered, so i don't see how it is so gross, but i guess if you consider eggs themselves to be gross...

As long as there is some bacon and waffles to go with it I'm cool

you don't consume the actual egg... you throw it away.
