Nope. That's why I'm on the internet arguing with strangers. If I had anything better to do I'd probably be doing it.Do you not have anything else to do rather than argue with strangers on the internet
Oh makes sense. I like the capuchino drinks as well which is the only reason I would consider buyingPointsHubby wrote: ↑ This
Tea needs to be infused / steeped in hot water … be it by using a pre portioned teabag, or loose leaves.
It also needs to be done in a pot / container that IS NOT ALSO USED FOR COFFEE
As coffee oils are extremely strong and will affect the taste / enjoyment of tea.
Hence WHY any sort of coffee machine also used for tea is a major fail.
I think of it this way … tea is quite delicate, coffee is robust. Coffee will overpower tea, and render the end product undrinkable
So if you use any sort of coffee maker to make tea the dedicated filter system / drip system as well as the continuous use coffee pot … will contaminate the end product.
Might work for green teas but not for black teas. Grandmother had a Zorijushi (or whatever) with that feature but it was never hot enough.lecale wrote: ↑ For tea you need a hot water dispenser like a Tiger https://www.amazon.ca/Tiger-PDU-A50U-K- ... 00QKUJZDC/
It keeps the water just below boiling and you push a button to reboil on demand. Pod systems do not make sense for tea because then you are spending about 50¢ per pod whereas a tea bag runs 2¢- 20¢ at the high end.
Apparently this is a "smart" version where you can pick a temperature, so it would work for black assuming it dispenses at whatever it's set at.thriftshopper wrote: ↑ Might work for green teas but not for black teas.

Just need good tea leaves, right temperature water and steep it for just the right period of time.death_hawk wrote: ↑ They do have them. They're just not all in one units like a Keurig because quality tea (or coffee for that matter) doesn't come in a pod.
What you're looking for is a variable temperature tea kettle because tea likes different temperatures based on what you're brewing.
There's no need for a fancy locked in DRMed consumable machine. All you need is accurate temperatures when making hot water.
What do you guys think of this? Overpriced kettle?shoppingBear wrote: ↑ Just need good tea leaves, right temperature water and steep it for just the right period of time.
Some tea even deserve its own pot.
btw. try a macchiato at a real coffee house. You may like it more than those latte macchiato.

I think you are paying for a soup/stew/yogurt maker instead of a kettle. For tea, you don't need any of the timer function.Heavenleigh85 wrote: ↑ What do you guys think of this? Overpriced kettle?
