Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of 2QT Elec Iced Tea Maker
Customer Review: Quick, Simple way to Brew Iced Tea
Summary: 4 Stars
Mr. Coffee's Iced Tea maker is an appliance that I only recently acquired. But in a short time, I have become as addicted to this device as I have to the caffeine contained in the beverage it produces. The reason? Simplicity and speed. With this appliance, all you need are three things found in most any tea lovers kitchen: water, ice, and of course, tea bags or loose tea. You don't need measuring cups. All you do is fill the pitcher to the line marked for water; pour the water into the reservoir; fill the empty pitcher with ice up to the line marked for ice; place 6 to 10 regular- size tea bags in the brewing basket; and press the start button. In about 5 minutes, you will have 2 quarts of freshly brewed iced tea, chilled and ready to drink. On the negative side, there are a few things about this device that could stand to be improved. First of all, there is no sugar dispenser. You can add sugar directly to the brewing basket (sprinkled over the tea bags) but this can get messy and it doesn't guarantee that all of the sugar will dissolve and make its way into the pitcher. Second, you need to know that this appliance doesn't offer any means to control the steeping. The water is heated in the reservoir and is then transferred to the brew basket where it then soaks through the tea bags and drips into the pitcher. There is no way to control the steeping and allow the water to soak up more tea. And third, the plastic pitcher is prone to staining and needs to be cleaned quickly.
Overall, though, this is still a very good appliance. I used to snicker when I would see this device in a store because I couldn't understand why anyone would waste his/her money on such an unnecessary piece of equipment. But now that I have one, I can understand why this appliance is popular and continues to sell so well. It makes a great addition to any kitchen where iced tea is a popular beverage. It's simple, easy to use, and it brews a full pitcher of tea in minutes. Now that I have one, I would never give it up!
