Blowing on Hot Tea: Science Behind Cooling & Evaporation Explained
- •Blowing on hot tea rapidly cools it down through 'Evaporation' and 'Convection'.
- •Blowing removes the hot steam layer, allowing more heat to escape as vapor.
- •Cooler blown air constantly absorbs heat from the tea, reducing its temperature.
- •Pouring tea into a saucer cools it faster due to increased surface area for evaporation.
- •Excessive blowing can introduce carbon dioxide, potentially affecting tea's acidity.
