                                For a standard 500ml (approx. 17 oz) teapot, the recommended amount is approximately 5 grams of loose-leaf green tea. Finding the right balance of tea leaves and water is crucial for avoiding bitterness and achieving a nuanced, flavorful brew. The exact quantity needed depends on your personal preference and the specific type of green tea you are using.
