The directions are on the bag. If they were not you can go to Essiac on Google and get directions

I put 4 quarts of water in a stainless steel stock pot, add 1 & 1/3 cups of Esiac, stir and bring to a boil for 10 minutes. Turn off, cover, let stand at least 10 hours (till next day), stir and just bring it to a boil once more then turn off, let cool and I store in glass mason quart jars under refrigeration. Take 1 &1/2 ounces with a little water on empty stomach twice a day. It's a great anti-inflammatory alternative and is said to have many other attributes (google to see). Was originally a native American formula. Hope this help answer your questions.

Just read instructions on the back of the bag... dummy. Drink a 1/4 cup before going to bed.

From Teas Etc website: "Avoid over steeping your tea by brewing with slightly less tea and water that is not as hot as normal." I mix black & herbal teas, use just a small amount and water just off the boil; but I put the lid on loosely or leave it uncovered when safe to do so, so it will cool more quickly. I continue to add water throughout the day then add a bit more tea later in the day. If removing the tea from the water is important, I recommend you consider another mug, such as the "Aladdin Tea Infuser Mug."

I usually make it like I make "Sun Tea"......Put them in cold water in the 2 quart container. Let it sit in a warm place all day and then just keep it in the fridge. If I make it hot I make it in a drip coffee maker, so not sure how that affects it.

I'm not sure what is the right way to use but, I just put 1 tea spool of Dandelion root into my tea pot then add hot water & drink for a day. Adding water if you have finished the first once.

I make a small 2 mug pot at a time and put in 3 or 4 heaping teaspoons........it's really just to taste, and I like it strong. Just play with it and find the perfect balance for you. It also is, curiously, the only tea that I don't sweeten.......it is better to me without sweetener. I also brew it for about 15 minutes before drinking.

Oh gosh. If you're just using it to brew a cup or 2 a day, it will last FOREVER!! I'm not kidding. Store it in a cool dry place and you may actually never run out. Incidentally, it is really delicious, but I drink it as iced tea.

Mix water, or milk, or cream, etc., a little at a time until you get the right consistency. It mixes easily and does not lump. It's a good substitute when you don't have fresh, so I keep it on hand.

I believe you just didn't add enough water. It's a bit tricky, at first; too little and it's undercooked, too much, and it's overcooked. Experience is the best teacher. I have trouble reading the little measuring cup, also. trial and error, using a tablespoon, to measure the water. Then, pour that amount in the cup and make a mark, for future breakfasts. Good luck!

I added a cranberry tea to mine saw it on you tube. I boiled the tea and used that water to mix it. Hope this help.

I have a small strainer which I put over my cup. Put on Tablespoon in strainer, put strainer over cup, pour boiling water over strainer, contents and cup. Let them stand about ten minutes, then drink. I have no problem with the taste. It just takes getting used too.

I use it in my coffee and tea every day. You just need to stir it often or the oil will sit on top. I also put it in my oatmeal. Yummy!

I bring 3 qts. of filtered/bottled drinking water to boil, and let it sit for 5 minutes. then add the bag. I'll let it sit for as little as 20 minutes, or overnight. it doesn't matter. I usually see a film on top of the brew, so I'll strain it through a paper coffee filter, then bring the volume up to 1 gallon as per directions. I like sweet tea, so I'll add 1 cup (bulk) Splenda to 1 gallon. I've been drinking it unsweetened lately, and just as pleased.

I drink daily by blending it into my morning routine. I mix it with a cup of coffee (like those creamer powder) and little bit of sugar (or sweetener). To add more rich flavor, I add a little of coffee mate too. Hope this helps.

As it happens, I just boiled water for coffee using my bodium French press which is supposed to be an 8 cup/ Itook about 15 minutes. I am not sure exactly how many onces of water that is, but I should also say it is important not to overfill it. It will still work quickly,

Publicus is dead right - you want water at 190F+ for optimal extraction with the drip process. If you're spending over $10/lb on beans, it's a bit of a waste if you don't get all you can from them. Try it yourself - boil the water in a pan, take it off to cool for 30 sec, pour it through the coffee/filter. I do this right into my mug, which nicely absorbs the excess heat and warms up as it cools the coffee. The hot mug keeps the coffee nice and hot a lot longer. (FWIW, nearly all coffee makers use the same method of heating the water and pumping it out at about 170F. I checked a bunch looking for one that was hotter, to no avail.)

Put in a little water first, then coffee and add the rest of your water. You can find complete instructions in some of the most helpful Amazon product reviews. Enjoy.

I brew 3 bags at one time with the proper amount of water (24oz for 3 bags) and I drink it for half of day then brew 3 more in the afternoon and drink it all by bedtime. I would not have the patience to drink a cup at a time. It has worked amazingly for me. I add almond, coconut or soy milk to mine.
