Raparperiä syödessä kannattaa muistaa, että se sisältää suuren määrän oksaalihappoa, noin 300mg:stä jopa 1400mg:hen per 100g. Turvallinen päivittäinen oksalaattien saanti on noin 200mg. Oksaalihappo ei tuhoudu kuumentamalla, vaan se ainoastaan liukenee osittain veteen kasvia keitettäessä. Oksaalihappo sitoo mineraaleja, erityisesti kalsiumia, mikä on välttämätön mineraali mm. hermoston toiminnalle. Kalsiumoksalaatit saattavat vaurioittaa munuaisia, aiheuttaa munuaiskiviä tai muuta vahinkoa eripuolilla elimistöä. Oksalaatteja on myös muissakin kasveissa, esimerkiksi monet tumman vihreät lehtikasvit, kuten pinaatti, sisältävät suuren määrän oksalaatteja.

Most teas don't expire if stored correctly. Green teas should generally be consumed within a year from the manufacturing date.

Would using a teapot with an infuser have a similar effect to a gai wan?

To brew tea or coffee, you need about four items/things:

  • A method to heat water to a proper temperature
  • A vessel to do the brewing in
  • A method to separate the tea leaves / coffee grounds from the liqueur
  • A cup to drink the liqueur from

If you want to try to gongfu brew it with what you have at home, you can use some kind of smallish vessel (about 150ml), like a coffee mug or small water/milk pitcher (make sure it can handle boiling water). Use something as a lid-like object to keep the heat from escaping and helping to pour the liqueur while keeping the leaves in the vessel. A big spoon might work, if that's all you can figure. If you have any kind of fine mesh filter (or just coffee filter paper), you can use that to keep the leaves from getting to your drinking cup.

From the article:

The data breach started with hackers accessing only around 14,000 user accounts. The hackers broke into this first set of victims by brute-forcing accounts with passwords that were known to be associated with the targeted customers, a technique known as credential stuffing.

From these 14,000 initial victims, however, the hackers were able to then access the personal data of the other 6.9 million million victims because they had opted-in to 23andMe’s DNA Relatives feature. This optional feature allows customers to automatically share some of their data with people who are considered their relatives on the platform.

Project Hail Mary might fit the bill. It's a story of a person who finds himself inside a spaceship, traveling somewhere in space to some location in space. He has lost his memory, so he has no idea why he is there or where he is going. All he knows is, that while he survived, his crewmates did not, and so, he is alone in space with somewhat annoying artificial intelligence as his only companion. He needs to save earth from something, but he doesn't know that yet.

I'm not 100% sure if it is what you are looking for, but it is very highly regarded sci-fi book. Also it's a standalone book (500 pages), not part of any kind of series of books, so it's less daunting to read than something like The Expanse series. There are some violence, but I don't remember how graphic it is.

I want to start drinking tea more instead of coffee

Not sure if you are aware of it, but matcha has pretty high caffeine content. It's less than in coffee, but more than in other types of tea. One gram of matcha powder contains approximately 20-45mg of caffeine. So, if you prepare a cup of matcha using 2 grams of matcha powder, you could get up to 90 mg of caffeine. Tea leaves being naturally grown things, it's impossible to know how much caffeine is in each tea leaf.

In case you want to reduce your caffeine intake even more, you might want to try other Japanese green teas. As you like matcha, your taste buds might agree with other Japanese green teas as well.

Also I have a cold brew coffee maker, could I put the powder in the filter as I submerge it? How long would it last in the fridge (assuming I can)?

One tea brewing method you might want to look into is grandpa style tea brewing. To grandpa style brew tea, you simply put some tea leaves into some kind of container, such as mug or water bottle, and add some water. As you drink the tea throughout the day, you just add more water over the leaves as needed, basically keeping the leaves submerged in water the whole day. Some teas are better suited for grandpa style brewing than others. Japanese tea leaves are usually broken leaves, and broken leaves quickly turns the tea liquor bitter/astringent and as such might not be suited for grandpa style brewing.

There are couple tea communities that might be helpful in your tea journey:

You probably have been drinking matcha lattes, which contains milk. Normal matcha is just water.
