However, for small quantities of green tea, we recommend the use of medium and small-sized tea rolling machines, so we recomend you use 5 sets DL-6CRT-40 tea rolling machine ( it can put 8.5 kg tea leaves per time ).
After rolling, the water content of the leaves are not change, so the total weight of the leaves is about 80kg.
|
Rolling barrel diameter is 40cm, rolling time about 30 minutes, press and roll for 10 minutes, loosen and roll for 5 minutes, and repeat it until the end of time.
