I moved and it was boxed up for several a couple of years. Now I have been using it NON STOP (trying to break the soda habit). I love it, but have somehow messed up my recipe. My tea comes out either to strong and bitter or weak and blah. not sure where I am going wrong. I'd get a new one but I like the style of my old one better.

Its just so much easier to make and no wait like you have with sun tea (I'm impatient). I also wanted to let the Starbucks tea lovers know that they are now selling pitcher-sized tea bags in their stores $4.95 for six - and a pitcher makes about 3 venti teas...so, you can get 18 venti ice-teas for $4.95!!! And they have their passion tea, green tea and black tea versions. Personally, I'm fine using my good old Lipton tea at home, but my husband loved Starbucks passion tea and was going no-caffeine, so this was a great solution for him!

The unit comes with a 2 quart pitcher that you fill with water and then pour the water into the brewing unit. Add a filter and the tea bag, press the on switch, and in a couple of minutes you have a pitcher full of tea. Meg,

I've just made it in a pot on the stove. What's the difference? How does it make it easier? (Yeah, I'm also one of those people who don't get the idea of a rice cooker, either). It might be a good buy, though. For some reason, my husband keeps buying the Publix sweet tea even though either he or I could make it ourselves. That stuff is good. It also helps that it keeps longer. I’ve never used a tea maker. I’ve just made it in a pot on the stove. What’s the difference? How does it make it easier?
