English term or phrase: infuse vs brew
Mam takie zdanie, pisane przez Chińczyka, a dotyczące sposobów przyrządzania herbaty.

The main difference was that tea was brewed in Tang [dynasty] while infused in Song [dynasty].

Czy ktoś zna może różnicę pomiędzy brew a infuse w tym kontekście?

Explanation:
No taka propozycja. ,Brewing' niesie za soba uzycie wrzatku, ,infusing' wywoluje konotacje z dlugotrwalym procesem, niekoniecznie przy uzyciu goracego plynu.

agree  Francisco Vare: Może Ci to pomoże: The difference between brewing tea and infusing is actually just the amount of time that you steep your tea. Brewing is usually a boiling of the herbs in the water as it boils.
