can we make tea in this

I suppose you could, if you want 20 -30 cups. Since it is a perculator, it just forces hot water up the stem which drips back through the grounds (coffee) or leaves (tea). I make tea in my 8 cup drip coffeemaker. I see no reason it wouldn't work in the 30 cup urn. It might be tricky to find the right amount of leaves for the right brew.

Not if you want it hot. We used it for a hot water urn and the water was lukewarm.

Use bagged tea, that is what my wife does. No mess. My daughter made a spicy apple cider. Remember to clean right a way, thoroughly.

I would think you can. Just put the tea in the basket where the Coffee would go. Never tried it though.

Yes, you can. I have made it without ice and just added ice to my glass. I am very fussy about my tea and this makes very good ice tea.

No, This is a thin glass and I am sure boiling water would crack it immediately. I can't tell you for sure because I never tried it and I don't think I will. You can brew iced tea by placing the tea bags in the container and add cold water. Let it sit on your counter top for a few hours. It will be fine tea.

Yes. Plug it in fill water to line inside white part. Then add ice to fill line in container. I add 1/3 cup of sugar to the ice. Put two family sized tea bags in the basket. Perfect tea every time.

I don't see why you couldn't but are you aware that a lot of teas should never be put into boiling water? A lot of teas actually are recommended to be done at lower temperatures. I'm not trying to solicit but I am part of a company that does sell loose leaf tea and there is a tea app if you have an apple or android cell phone that you can download for free. Go to your app store and look up Tealightful It has a lot of great information about all types of tea.

Yes you may. I put hot tea and added water to dilute. Let it cool then put into refrigerator. Make sure the the spout handle is far enough back from the door when closed or you will have a lot of liquid dumped.

You could put tea in the filter but it will not steep your tea. It would make basically just make pretty weak tea. I ues the Keurig without any cup or filter to quickly make hot water and then put a tea bag in my cup. Or loose tea with a steeper.

Hi Kimberly! Of course you can! Use half a tea bag and make half the tea....Always like to remind people how versatile the tea is however - if you have leftovers, you can use on indoor houseplants, home compost pile, trees, shrubs, a neighbor's rose bush (but only if you like them :)Happy Gardening!

So far, no. We use our two pots, -one for coffee and one for tea. The beverages are made then poured into the pots.

I know you can, I put my ceramic tea pot on it too. Temperatures is perfect to keep the tea warm, but never hot.

No, you cannot. This is a tea pot. What you put on the stove is called a tea kettle.

I don't see why not. Just push the plunger down once you put the lid on and it will function as a tea pot. It's a wonderful piece to have!

Yes. I make tea in but I usually reheat the tea by placing the pot on the stove and it's fine.

That's a good question. I never thought about it until now. I put tea in mine.

No. You have to boil the water and then steep the tea. Well worth it though!

I'm not sure, I've never really tried that. I just boil my water in a tea pot. I will tell you that I have purchased this for three people, as well as myself. That's how much I like it.
