How much tea powder is in this container? It says one pound but the shipping weight is only 12.8 ounces. How is this possible?

I needed more, so waited to respond until it arrived so I could weigh it. Product and package weighs exactly 16 oz. The empty package weighs 0.25 oz.

Before purchasing this tea I watched a Youtube video showing a cup of green tea being prepared and the tea was measured with a Chashaku (Hooked Bamboo Scoop). Two scoops (slightly less than 1 tsp) or 3-4 scoops (about 1.5 tsp) depending on what you're making. One website says to measure ½ to 2 scoops of powder for Usucha and 3 to 4 scoops for Koicha. I also bought a Chasen (tea whisk). I've not made any tea yet, but I'm prepared!! When using the bamboo scoop I would think you'd be less apt to use more tea than you really need, thus getting as many servings as possible.

Hi there,In the description it lists this item as 6.1 ounces (?) & shipping weight 11 ounces. There are three different sizes that can be bought and have been manufactured though. A 2 ounce, a 6 ounce & a 12 ounce size. Good luck to you & take care!!Vermin

21 oz is liquid volume. Each tea has different kind texture. Example some teas are kinda whole leaves such as Ceylan Tea, Green Tea. Some of them has very small leaves such as Turkish Tea. So the weight of the tea will be depend of the leaves. If your tea has big leaves it may hold less than 5 oz, if the leaves are small you can go up to 7-8 oz. There is a easy way to understand how much this tins will hold though. Do you have any measurement cup with fl oz written on it. Find the 21 oz and fill to that line your tea. This tin will hold exactly that much tea.

Personally, I believe that it is a misprint. The container is 2.5 lb. (2 lb. 8 Oz.) of powdered malted milk. If the container held 2.5 gallons, it would be huge and most certainly weigh more than 2.5 lb.I was most happy with my purchase (which is long gone) & will shortly more. I don't know why the local supermarkets don't have it !!!!-Marie

There should be a scoop buried in the powder in the container. I ran out of the powder so I can't measure how much is in a scoop. I use 1/2 of what they say.

It's heavy, but not crazy heavy! It's definitely more than 1.8 ounces. More like 11.8 ounces.

The tea is in 25 x 3 ounce packages as in the photo. It tastes great. Get decaf if you have any issues sleeping if you drink it later in the evening.

The one I bought was a powder, I measured out just the amount I wanted with a tiny spoon. The opening of the bottle wasn't very wide tho, thus a slim spoon. I used a long-handled iced tea spoon.

Ah, yeah I see that, the item weight is 8 oz. They put pounds instead of ounces in the item weight. There are 12 packages in the box, each package is 8 ounces.

It is one pound. The container is well sealed. I bought this a few months ago and the best by info says March 5, 2015.

a tealight candle weighs about .5-.6 oz. So 15-17 tealights per pound makes 150-170 tea lights with 10 lbs of wax.

I just weighed it for you. The actual weight is a bit over one ounce. I think the description was including the packaging as well for the shipping weight.

Not sure if this Mocafe Matcha Green Tea blend comes in a smaller 12 ounce package. This package come in a 3 pound bag and is very cost efficient! not too mention quite yummy!!

I sent an email to the distributor, Mighty Vitee, and they said it was one bag. (It is strange since the shipping weight is 6.8 pounds and one bag is 1.7 pounds). I did include in my email the comment about the shipping weight, but according to their rep it is one bag.

it is loose tea and so it comes packed in a cello bag in a box. I no longer have the box as I placed the tea in a glass jar, but I would guess about 4 oz or enough to make about 25 cups of tea.

Servings are about 1oz, and the container is 28 oz. I think most folks get less than 28 because the powder is so fine and it's easy to overload the scoop. I save powder and money by mixing a half scoop w soy milk, so I still get about 20 G protein and my powder lasts longer. Plus it's creamier.
