Advanced brewing tips: Whilst sencha has a general brewing guide, every type of tea is has its individual character so once you get to know the tea you can adapt the parameters to suit the tea's and your preference. 
Pouring is an important aspect in preparing sencha, especially for the first infusion. Pour very slowly disturbing the leaves as little as possible. Often it can take up to 20 seconds to pour the hot water on the tea. Gently pour the tea out and ensure you get the final drops as this is where the deepest flavours are. 
Note that cooler water will bring out more sweetness/softness in the tea but will need slightly longer infusion to achieve a more flavoursome brew. Following this logic hotter water will bring out stronger flavours faster. Also higher tea to water ratio will give more strength.
Porcelain and glass vessels have a neutral flavour and so you will get the most 'honest' result from your brew and is very suitable for sencha.
Raw clay (unglazed) Tokoname clay teapots from Japan is highly recommend.
