Tea Laboratory
Layered deduction cockpit
Track overlapping tea experiments with a triangular infusion grid, deduction matrix, and annotated ingredient panels so every mix is repeatable from a seed.
Copy a link tied to the current seed for easier handoffs or debugging.
Seeds stabilize your grid layout, layering order, and deduction matrix so teammates can replay the same investigation.
Toggle overlays to reduce clutter; annotations still ride along with each cell so you can pivot quickly.
Result logging hint
Toggle contextual guidance on how recorded brew results narrow the hidden flavor signatures without solving the puzzle for you.

| Clue | Heat | Sweetness | Tannin |
|---|---|---|---|
| Steam carries candied citrus | Medium rolling boil keeps zest intact | Likely from aged peel rather than honey | Low; steep in thin vessels |
| Violet perfume lingers after cooling | Drop to 80°C to preserve florals | Natural sweetness expected | Introduce mineral slate for balance |
| Smoke blooms when stirred | Spike heat briefly then rest | Counter with citrus syrup | Medium; pair with robust leaves |

Actions
Draw, mix, and sell to keep the sleuth loop tight. Actions update your session state without overwriting the seed.
Awaiting your first action.
Taste it for science overlay
Simple tester placeholder; toggle it to imagine sharing brews with a helper before we add penalties.
Seed-linked sessions make remote collaboration painless. Enter a memorable seed, tune overlays to reduce noise, then reuse the same path to replay the deduction.
The triangle grid favors quick annotation stacking. Aroma layers sit up top, texture fills the middle, and heat markings trail along the base so your eye knows where to land.
When you are ready to sell, snapshot your deduction matrix and lock the prep table. The pantry stays untouched so you can rerun mixes without reshuffling your hand.
