hamilton beach coffee makersHamilton Beach 40911 2-Quart Electric Iced Tea MakerMake perfect iced tea and chill instantly with this electric easy to use iced tea makerCoffee drinkers have their automatic brewers, why shouldn’t tea drinkers? Ideal for family gatherings or summer picnics, this ingenious Hamilton Beach machine brews up a pitcher full of iced tea in less than ten minutes. After the pitcher is filled with ice cubes, tea (either loose or bags) is placed in the special paperless filter, and an adjustment for mild, medium, or strong brewing is selected. The lid snaps on. A receptacle slides out from underneath the heating unit which then holds the pitcher snugly in place. Water is added to the heating unit, the power button pushed, and the hot water drips through the tea filter into the pitcher of ice. When brewing is complete, the power automatically shuts off for safety. Complete directions for use are embossed on the slide-out receptacle, which eliminates worries about losing a user guide. Although the iced tea maker looks bulky when assembled, the pitcher inverts snugly over the heating unit for compact storage. Able to fit in most refrigerator doors, the 2-quart pitcher features a hollow, comfortable handle and a thumb release for the lid, but is not dishwasher-safe. Assembled, the machine measures 17-1/2 by 11-1/2 by 4-1/2 inches. –Ann BieriToo low to display$ 29.99http://www.amazon.com/Hamilton-Beach-40911-2-Quart-Electric/dp/B00008VSCO%3FSubscriptionId%3DAKIAJLJB3DQ3GVMG2N7Q%26tag%3Dgpsseeking-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB00008VSCOHamilton Beach 40911 2-Quart Electric Iced Tea Maker
