TO MAKE TEA:
1. Place appliance on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.
2. Fill the pitcher with fresh, cold water to the water level marking. Lift the reservoir
lid and pour the water into the water reservoir.
Note: Do not fill above the
“MAX” fill marking. If too much water is poured into the water reservoir, it will
come out of the overflow opening on the back of the Iced Tea Maker body.
3. Remove the filter and brew basket from the Iced Tea Maker.
4. For sweet tea, wet the inside of the sweetener chamber with water. Add up to 1
cup of sugar to the sweetener chamber.
Note: Leave the sweetener chamber
in the Iced Tea Maker, even if you do not make sweet tea.
5. Place the brew basket on top of the sweetener chamber. If using bagged tea,
place the tea bags in the brew basket according to the “
TEA MEASUREMENT”
guide in this manual. The filter can be placed on top of the tea bags in the brew
basket. If using loose tea, place the filter on top of the brew basket. Add loose
tea according to the “
TEA MEASUREMENT” guide.
6. Close the water reservoir lid.
7. Adjust the steeping control knob to your desired brew
strength, mild on the left and strong on the right.
8. Fill the pitcher with ice cubes to the “ICE” level
marking.
Note: If you want to use cold water in place
of ice, fill the pitcher with water to the “WATER” level
marking not the “ICE” level marking as the pitcher will
overflow once the hot tea is brewed into the pitcher.
Or, you can add 1 quart of cold water to the hot tea when the brew cycle is
complete.
