TEAMOSA Uses Ultrasonic Extraction To Brew The Perfect Cup Of Tea

Did you know that when it comes to making tea that it involves more than just pouring boiling water over tea leaves and then just drinking it? For the tea connoisseur, this is pretty obvious because if you did not know, different types of teas can be brewed in different ways to extract the best flavor from them.

Also did you know that boiling water isn’t necessarily the best temperature for tea because it can cause bitterness? For the regular tea drinker these are probably things that sound too troublesome, but on Kickstarter a tea maker called the TEAMOSA has been launched which is said to be able to brew the perfect cup using utlrasonic extraction techniques.

According to its description, “TEAMOSA have applied ultrasonic extraction to increase antioxidants yield at 149°F (65°C), compared with 185°F (85°C), which in turn would increase the benefit towards your health.” The device will work with loose tea leaves or TEAMOSA capsules, and users can choose the different types of tea that they plan on brewing so that the TEAMOSA knows what temperatures to use.

In a way you could think of the TEAMOSA as being the Nespresso for teas, so if you fancy yourself an avid tea drinker and want take your tea brewing techniques to the next level, then maybe the TEAMOSA Kickstarter project could be worth taking a look at.

Instagram Makes Changes To The Way Autoplay Videos Are Handled

Instagram introduced autoplaying videos a while ago, but one of things that Instagram did back then to prevent autoplay videos from being annoying is that it muted it by default. This means that users would have to tap on a video to turn on the sound, which is good since we’re sure that no one wants videos suddenly blasting at full volume when they’re out and about.

However it seems that Instagram has decided to make some controversial changes with regards to how audio is handled in autoplay videos. The audio in videos will still continue to be muted by default, however if you were to tap on one of the videos to hear its audio, this will be applied to all future videos in the app until Instagram has been closed.

If you’ve noticed this change over the weekend, know that you’re not alone and according to TechCrunch, Instagram has confirmed with the publication that this is indeed part of an update that they are rolling out across the app. We’re not sure why Instagram has made these changes, but the company claims that having to turn on sound for each video can be “frustrating” for some users.

We suppose Instagram could also be acting on the assumption that if you unmute one video that you’re in a location where playing audio out loud is not an issue, although we would have preferred if users were given the option. Either way it’s something to keep in mind the next time you use the app.
