Cold brew master thread (type, time, temp, ratio)! tea

Hi all,

I figured I would get a thread going with a table of the various teas, ratios, brew times, and temperatures that different users recommend. That way if anyone comes along in the future they can get some ideas to start from. I have started the table by scouring old threads and seeing what recommendations users have had in the past. As people post replies to this thread I will update the table!
