Reddit reviews Breville BTM800XL One-Touch Tea Maker

The best teapot for stoners is the Breville One-Touch Tea Maker, because you never have to worry about forgetting about your tea and over-brewing it. Just remembered you put on a pot 45 minutes later? No worries - it's been steeped for the ideal temperature and time for your particular type of tea, and is now in the kettle at the ideal serving temperature for your particular type of tea.

$250 seems like a steep investment (pun intended, haha), but I'd definitely pay $0.50 per pot ($0.10 per cup) for this kind of precision and insurance against bitter tea, and I've drank way more than 500 pots of tea from mine.

Green tea from this thing tastes way better than soda, even when it's unsweetened. And green tea has 0 calories unsweetened, and lots of things like L-theanine that enhance your cannabis high and make you happier and healthier in general. I highly recommend (pun, haha) this product to any ent.

To anyone looking to spend a few hundred on someone who enjoys food science or just fancy kitchen gadgets I own both of these and LOVE them:

Technivorm Moccamaster coffee maker. Silver color will drop to like $270 for BF likely. The best drip coffee money can buy. 5 year warranty but will likely last a lifetime. One of those "buy it for life" items. Spend $15 on a wifi outlet and it is also programmable/smart.

Breville Tea Maker. I found mine for $125 at Marshals last month, YMMV. Honestly worth full price though. Making tea becomes so easy and fun. I set it up before a shower and come out to perfectly brewed tea every time.

I wonder if they have this for tea?

Edit: Yup, they do. One example. And this is from its reviews: "You put in the water and tea, set the timer, go to bed and wake up to hot freshly brewed tea." :D

Kind of similar, I got an automatic tea maker as a gift and love it: http://www.amazon.com/Breville-BTM800XL-One-Touch-Tea-Maker/dp/B003LNOPSG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1397080801&sr=8-1&keywords=automatic+tea+maker

Completely excessive, and probably not worth the cost, but it is a damn nice tea maker.

Was it a Breville Tea maker?

Edit: there are loads of tea makers, maybe a different brand?

definitely not the world's first of this kind. Quite a few tea makers that are exactly like this already exist (albeit, at high cost) .. for example, Breville One-touch. Now, if this product is actually going to be affordable to the general public, then it would indeed be of interest to many.

What kind of tea is she into? If she likes anything besides just black tea, the Breville One Touch is the Cadillac of tea makers.

To do it all in one (heating water and brewing) you'll probably have to look at something like the Breville One Touch Tea Maker.

What do you mean by automatic? There's something like this that'll brew tea with a button press. I've heard good things about it but it's not worth the price tag in my opinion.

I'd recommend getting a variable temperature kettle (very expensive right now. It falls to $65 on occasion), a timer, and either a french press, steeper, or strainer. They work quite similarly so it depends on what method you find most practical.

If you're brewing tea bags then you'd only need the variable temp. kettle and timer.

Breville has a tea maker that can do that.

My brother has a Breville loose leaf kettle and it's AMAZING. He can either put in the info manually, or in a lot of cases you choose which tea type and it will automatically fill in temperature and steep time. I always loved watching the little basket lower into the water and the colour infuse.

He bought his years ago, but this looks pretty similar: https://www.amazon.ca/Breville-BTM800XL-BREBTM800XL-Tea-Maker/dp/B003LNOPSG

Have you considered Breville’s One Touch Tea Maker? The one I linked is the large, they have a smaller one that’s about $20 less (the large is $218) and a variable tea infuser for $161 (for the large, the smaller is $13 less) along with a couple different variable temperature kettles (ranging from just over $100 to just under $200).

I take the large One Touch on family vacations as well as using it at home (it travels fully boxed up) so I can heartily recommend it. I haven’t used any of the others so can’t speak to them though the reviews on Amazon look good.

Buy an iced tea maker. Maker 2 quarts of tea. Drink it cold or zap a cup in the microwave in the AM.

or you can get one of these and set it up the night before like a coffee maker and wake up to warm tea.

Might not be exactly what you're looking for, and it's expensive, but this one is awesome. I bought it for myself for christmas a few years ago and 2 of our friends followed suit. I think it's worth the money. Boils water in no time as well.

Get yourself one of these and never look back Breville BTM800XL One-Touch Tea Maker https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003LNOPSG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_LGgeAb8PBJ68F

oh absolutely. I love it. I don't think I can drink tea without it now. I get my tea from Teavana so I brew it myself. it's not worth buying it if you like using teabags.

They have tea makers that are kinda like coffee makers and keep stuff warm too. I'm not sure how much you'd want to spend though.

If you want to be ritzy AF then I can recommend the Breville One-Touch. I have had it for ~3 years now and it's doing great but (full disclaimer) I usually just use it for water boiling for my morning coffee.

Of course, this Breville One-Touch Tea Maker is what I really want someday...

They’re not cheap, but they exist.

Look up the Breville one touch tea maker: http://www.amazon.com/Breville-BTM800XL-One-Touch-Tea-Maker/dp/B003LNOPSG I got it for Christmas and it is truly amazing.

Breville makes a good electric glass one I've been eyeing. It's expensive though.

We have lots of devices that can make Tea. Earl Grey. Hot. The tricky part is getting them to make anything else.

You can find that kind of tea kettle or that or this machine (sorry, I did not find it in English). Or course, you got also k-cup ou Tassismo cup, but the taste will never beat a real loose leaf tea.

There were a few tea shop in San Francisco where I used to live in California that I would go to. My mother also ships me tea from Israel (which is probably my favorite). Here is a link to /r/tea's list of online tea shops! Also visit the subreddit. It's full of really great tips for beginners. That should help you get started.

Also, never buy tea bags. If you're using tea bags you are doing it wrong. I have an electric kettle, a few infusion cups, and a tea maker. I have a tea maker similar to this, but you can get them much cheaper! The great thing is that you don't really need much for good tea!

So I went over to a neighbor's for tea and she had the Breville One-Touch Tea Maker...and the teas she brewed came out exceptional.

I was wondering if people feel that I should invest in this particular piece, or instead go for the slightly cheaper Breville BKE820XL, which also has tea-specific temperature controls.

Either would be a massive upgrade from what I'm currently using and wonder if I need the timing and flavor profile-specific settings if I use an old-fashioned timer since I'd be baby-sitting the tea.

Thoughts? Thanks everyone! ♥ May your day be filled with the perfect-temperature cup!

My boyfriend bought this for me: http://www.amazon.com/The-Breville-One-Touch-Tea-Maker/dp/B003LNOPSG

I love loose leaf but I'm always running around. I didn't think I would benefit from a cast iron kettle or anything because I couldn't see myself devoting the time for it. So this has a programmable timer and a bunch of other really cool features. Every cup tastes amazing and it's super easy to take care of.

Sure there is - this one is awesome - you put your tea leaves in the dish the night before, set the time to start, the temperature of the water, and the steep time, and when it's time, it'll heat the water, submerge the tea, let it steep for the right amount of time, then remove the leaves.

If you are looking for the "perfect tea kettle" and do not have a budget, the Brewville Tea Maker is kinda awesome. I got it due to having a clock where I can schedule my tea to be done brewing at 7:30am and I can just grab and go.

I don't know an awful lot about the ikettle, but I can tell you that my Breville 1 touch has served me well for the years I have had it.

Take a look on amazon, hopefully it's not out of your price range. https://www.amazon.com/Breville-BTM800XL-One-Touch-Tea-Maker/dp/B003LNOPSG

Breville tea maker. It has a little basket that goes up and down on a magnetic elevator.

Edit: Looking again it might not be a breville.
