I put 1 heaped tea spoon (really heaped, because the bark is not dense, so the tea spoon looks funny, it almost disappears under the heap of bark shavings ) into the tea stainer, pour just boiled water and leave to steep it for 12-15 minutes. Then I drink the tisane, or in a peasant language, tea

Joking aside, it is a simple brewing, like any other herb such as camomile etc.
A full tea spoon of the shavings per cup, 100C water, steep for 10-15 minutes.
Look at the last picture below
.
And if there is something that I really like is to follow the advices and examples of simple man you.

Thanks a lot. This evening that will be my tisane/tea.
