If you want to make tea at home without the extra hassle, then you’ll want a tea maker. Here’s how to pick the best one for your home.
What Is a Tea Maker?
Tea makers are devices that allow you to brew tea more conveniently than you normally would. There are two types of tea makers - those that can brew hot tea and those that can brew iced tea.
Things to Consider Before Buying Tea Maker
Keep these tips in mind when you’re purchasing your next tea maker.
Type
What type of tea are you going to brew? Even though iced and hot tea uses the same ingredients, you can’t use an iced tea maker to make hot tea, and vice versa. Before you make your purchase, be sure that the tea maker makes the type of tea you want to be drinking, unless you want to end up drinking something else entirely.
Automation
Do you really need a fully automatic tea maker? If you’re a novice at brewing tea, you may find it difficult to heat water at the right temperatures and brew tea properly, so you may find automatic tea makers more convenient. However, if you enjoy brewing tea manually, then a simple teapot with a filter mesh will be more than enough to get you started.
Tea Maker Price Range
Tea makers can cost anywhere from a little over $35 to $200 or more, depending on the type of tea made and the features that come with the tea maker.
