When the tea is done steeping,
a

tea into the pitcher filled with ice. The machine will then shut off automat-
ically.
See Figure

cycle is over. Grasp the molded plug and unplug the power cord.
CAUTION: Some residual steam may
escape from the brewer when the cycle

CAUTION: Use care when lifting the
brewer from the pitcher. A seal may
have formed during the brewing
process.
Lift and remove the brewer and
place the lid properly on the pitcher. You
are now ready to serve refreshing iced tea.
Discard tea bags from the brewer. Allow
brewer to cool. Rinse the brewer and lid
with water and wipe out the brewer
after
each use.
You may begin the brewing
process again.
CAUTION: if you have used a tea bail,
it may be HOT. Allow contents to cool

If you have leftover tea, cover the pitcher with the pitcher lid and store
in the refrigerator.
When the machine is not in use, the pitcher, brewer and lid stack for
easy storage.
Helpful Hints
1.
Use more or less tea to suit your taste. Additional tea bags may be
needed when using herbal tea.
2.
Tea may turn cloudy as it chills due to the tannic acids found in tea.
Higher quality teas will contain more tannic acids than others.
Using less tea will reduce the cloudiness.
3.
For extra flavor, try adding several bags of herbal or flavored tea
to your brew.
