Full Review:

The most interesting part about tea is that you can enjoy it either in hot or cold brew. While the former needs water boiled at the exact temperature for the tea to properly steep, preparing the latter is much more effortless with the right iced tea maker. With this, our SolidSmack Household Appliance and Tool Research Team reviewed 8 entries from various brands. We tested and rated the models based on their features, convenience, ease of cleanup, and quality. And with scores tallied, here is the best iced tea maker this 2021: Mr. Coffee TM75.

TM75 will gradually pour water into the tea basket which will give you a pitcher of iced tea ready for drinking.

Mr. Coffee TM75 is an electrical iced coffee maker that copies the principle of pour-over coffee makers. Unlike the manual models that will require time to let the tea bags/loose tea steep under the water, TM75 will gradually pour water into the tea basket which will give you a pitcher of iced tea ready for drinking.

To start, just fill the included pitcher up to the 1-quart water line and pour it into the water reservoir of the TM75. Then, put back the pitcher next to the reservoir to let it collect the iced tea later. At the top of the pitcher is a huge tea basket where you can place loose tea or tea bags. The strength of the brew depends on you and if you plan to make a strong blend of iced tea, the basket is incredibly large that it can handle a considerable amount of loose tea.

Before pushing the button, you can fill the pitcher with ice up to the 1-quart line. After this, the TM75 will do the work of extracting the flavor out of the tea bags / loose tea. It will take 5 to 8 minutes (depending on the amount of water) to brew the tea and after this, you can remove the pitcher and replace the basket with a lid and enjoy your iced tea. The machine will also automatically turn off

The 2-quart pitcher is just of the right size to fit in refrigerators and the cleanup is easy. Though the parts are just recommended for a hand wash, washing the basket, lid, and the pitcher is not a problem. Lastly, you can simply run the water reservoir with clean water and vinegar a couple of times for effortless cleanup and it’ll be ready for another batch of iced coffee.
