I noticed that phrase in a Dan Brown book.
I've heard of wetting it, letting it draw, and even mashing it, but never that usage.
Is it an Americanism?

When my mum made tea in a teapot with loose tea, she "steeped" it for at least five minutes before pouring. Scottish expression maybe?

I was at a friends house many years ago and she was made chai latte in a tea pot on the stove with tea bags, cardamom, cloves, cinnamon and milk. She boiled it for about 5 minutes. It was lovely.

No. One simple reason - it's racially discriminatory.
