Snoop's Take

The Mr. Coffee 3-Quart Iced Tea and Iced Coffee Maker is designed to brew refreshing iced beverages right at home or the office. With a spacious 3-quart pitcher, it can handle both tea bags and loose tea, making it versatile for a variety of drinks. Consumer sentiment on this product reveals a mix of satisfaction and criticism. Many users appreciate its convenient design for tea bag storage, noting that the tea bags fit perfectly in the designated area. However, some feedback suggests that iced coffee often tastes watered down, with one user stating, "I would add in a pot full of ice underneath Mr. Coffee and subtract the water you add to your coffee machine in total." Overall, while the Mr. Coffee Iced Tea and Iced Coffee Maker has its strengths, particularly for loose leaf tea, potential buyers should be aware of its limitations in flavor strength and quality compared to traditional methods. It may be recommended for those seeking convenience, but tea enthusiasts might want to consider alternatives.

What it does well!

Key strengths users can’t stop talking about.

Effective iced coffee maker when used correctly

“Anyone having luck actually making a decent iced coffee with this? All mine taste so watered down with no flavor.”➕

“Love mine! Maybe bigger ice cubes? and I add 2 scoops of coffee grinds.”➕

“Plastic and Coffee- is it safe? I know I'll probably be laughed at with this but how safe is plastic and coffee?”➕

“Almost every plastic releases bad stuff at high temperatures, food grade plastics that we find in our coffee gear are chosen because they do not release harmful substances at the temperatures they encounter, and in our case they are pretty low, always under 100 C.”➕

Convenient design for tea bag storage

“Mr. Coffee maker has a helpful spot to hold your tea bags under the lid.”➕

“I make a pot of tea at a time and just found that the tag on my teas bag fit perfectly in the handle under the lid.”➕

“Many plastics, including those used in coffee gear, are made from petroleum byproducts.”➕

Effective iced tea maker for loose leaf tea

“So far, so good.”➕

“I usually use either english breakfast or gunpowder green.”➕

Where it needs some work!

Areas to watch—feedback on possible improvements.

Perpetual flavor tainting from fruit infusions

“I loved mine until I made a fruit infusion style tea in it and it perpetually tainted all future teas no matter how much I washed it :)”➕

Inferior tea quality compared to traditional methods

“I always thought it made inferior tea to the regular method.”➕

Cloudy iced tea results

“No matter what I do, it ends up cloudy which also makes it taste weird.”➕

“It's a reaction between tannins and caffeine, released with heat.”➕

“I tried cold brewing last night and it was still cloudy.”➕

Iced coffee often tastes watered down

“I would add in a pot full of ice underneath mr coffee and subtract the water you add to your coffee machine in total.”➕

“It's been decent in my experience.”➕

“Get a better brand of coffee that would be my suggestion”➕

Mr. Coffee's quality is subpar compared to alternatives

“Because Mr. Coffee is the absolute worst basic coffee maker on the market.”➕

Tea is usually extremely weak

“the problem with this is that that tea is usually extremely weak, you don't know which particular tea you want in advance, and then you still have to go up and down to refrigerate it, or you can leave it in the room and then it doesn't last a whole day because glass containers are never larger then 32 oz.”➕

Mr. Coffee machines produce inferior tea quality

“they make terrible tea -- they're essentially just a Mr. Coffee with a teapot instead of a coffee carafe, you even use coffee filters!”➕

Using a French press for cold brew tea

Discussion on tea maker pricing and value

Cautionary Callouts

Know the pitfalls before they catch you off guard.

Humorous take on brewing tea

“probably, I mean it's not as if the Tea Police will smash your door down mid brew”➕

“I made this joke before but...:”➕

“Request: iced tea maker I’ve gone through maybe 8 iced tea makers in 10 years. I brew maybe a gallon or so per day. I know there are other ways to make tea but I drink a lot of tea. Thanks in advance 😊”➕

Concerns about coffee quality and machine performance

“Needs to get 4 people in household jacked up on caffeine.”➕

“Right now my quality is Aldi coffee grounds that overflow the filter into the coffee so I have grounds in my coffee every cup.”➕

“My suggestion is to get another Mr. Coffee. If caffeine is your highest priority, make a half-pot with enough grounds to taste, but not to overfill the hopper.”➕

“I really love my super automatic. You load it with whole beans and water.”➕

Discussion on the evolution of tea machines

“Most products are still in the production stage, but are rapidly improving.”➕
