There is actually zero difference. I promise you won’t be able to blind pick the microwaved cup better than chance, assuming all other prep is the same.
Exactly. I usually microwave a cup and then throw in the teabag. If gas stoves were not so inefficient I wpuld heat it on there but it takes about 5 times as long as in a microwave and tastes the same.
Get an electric kettle. Tea should be brewed at an appropriate temperature for its style, and microwaving the water is inaccurate. Electric kettle will get you the right temp every time nearly as fast.
You can fuck right off with your electric kettle elitism. I won’t buy something that will get used 2 times per month if I have everything I need to make myself tea already.
I think you need to clean your microwave…
No microwaved water is just wrong.

The fact the water is boiling will also get you the right temp.
