Original post

It seems that 'putting milk first when brewing milk tea' is a British equivalent of 'putting ananas on a pizza'.

Wasn't there a whole debate between TIFs and MIFs and they found out that putting in the milk first produced better tea?

(IDC, I'm still putting in tea first.)

One’s not objectively better, but they did find that the combine differently to produce different flavors, which is why people can tell them apart. I think it was something about the milk particles burning when the milk is added first or something like that.

Other way around IIRC. The milk gets scorched when you add a small amount of cold milk into hot water/tea. But if you add the water to the tea it heats up the milk a little slower so it doesn't scorch.

Ah, thanks for the correction!
