I'm sorry but I have never used this product to make tea, only cold-brewed coffee.

I have the Cilio Porcelain No. 2 Filter which uses No. 2 cone filters. I works great with 3 1/2" diameter mugs and works with slightly larger and smaller mugs also. A No. 4 filter holder is really big and unstable (top-heavy) on top of most mugs. Only get the No. 4 filter holder if you need to brew for 2 people at once into a larger container.

The model TM70 is coming up on the Internet as a tea maker; do not know if this filter will work ....

Yes. I'm making tea now in the pitcher. It works out well. I don't use the filter though. I put a little Stevia in with what teas I like at the timeand in a few hours the "sun" tea is ready but I don't the pitcher out in the sun -- just sitting it in the kitchen window with some morning sun works fine forme. Hope I answered your question.

There is a carbon filter that comes with the unit. It fits in the top of the clear container that the distilled water drips into. If you empty the clear container into another storage container, say one in your fridge, the carbon filter just pops out, you pour the water into the other container and pop it back in.

I don't think a coffee filter or a tea sock will fit. The opening is only about 1 1/2 inches across. I brew my tea in a pot then transfer. I preheat the airpot with boiling water while the tea steeps. The liquids stay hot a lot longer when the airpot is preheated.

It is a percolating unit that does not require a filter. You place grounds in a provided metal dish. Just pick a course ground coffee, add water and let it brew!

Yes it does and so does the filter, it is very easy to clean and a tough one. I own a coffee shop and use this daily for all my tea infusions, works like a charm!

Hi Laura......i use 4 to 6 of these two bags to make a single gallon of tea. I use an electric tea maker, so it brews over a pitcher of ice already. So, I don't add any water after it brews over the initial pitcher of ice......

Well, not exactly - it's a bit too small but it does work if you're making less than 8 cups. Any more than that and the grounds will probably overflow the filter - at least that's what happened to me. I use paper filters when I'm brewing 8 cups or more.

I use mine for home brewing and have an elbow inside to draw from the side that I added. It has never clogged on me. There is no filter on the inside included but would be easy to add one!

I invested in a pitcher with the loose leaf tea filter and adding the infuser was a nice addition. It keeps the fruit in the pitcher for more flavor VS it going into the glass. Hope this helps.

Interesting question. I tried it and my opinion is you would not like the coffee it produces. The screen of the infuser is much coarser than filter paper for coffee makers and it lets a lot of fine particles through. I did this using a glass of hot water so I could watch and after a minute the bottom of the glass is covered with sludge.

There's actually a mesh filter just under the cap so you can put the tea leaves right in the the piture to brew.

The Filtron system is sturdier. Our Toddy cracked after about six months of regular use. Both made delicious cold brew.

Before I forget, the Whole Process, is based on the Water! I Britta filter mine, then I boil the water, the first cleans impurities in the water, the second Kills the chlorine, and you will have basically pure water,You can buy distilled water?? But the brewing Process is controlled By You. Myself, as I'm still Learning, I find that I want to know that I am Making Beer the best I Can.When you look at the Ads for Beer, its all about the Water! Spring, mountain, etc.I wish you the best.

This iced tea brewer is a hot brew machine. You do use ice in the pitcher while brewing so once the tea is brewed, the ice cools it down.
