who's bags?
try 8oz cup, boiling water, 1 bag and around 3 minutes, should be enough for most bags of black tea

Hi and welcome!
If this still seems too weak try steeping up to 5 mins. If this doesn't work maybe try some different bags.

Sounds like old, stale bags. Most store bought teabags brew up pretty quickly but also go stale pretty quickly ... unless these are whole leaf bags.
