Question

Have you ever brewed tea bags in the coffee maker? Will that work for tea bags?

Answer 1

Yes, it will I do it all the time.

( Yep,Yep,Yep)

Answer 2

Yes, I have put the chamomile tea bags in the coffee maker. They way i did it is one bag of the chamomile is one cup so I put 6 teabags where the coffee filter goes and i filled the water for 7 cups of water just to be on the safe side. and it came out really good. You can also just put the teabags in the coffee pot and do it that way too.

Answer 3

dont think it will steep properly because the water just goes right through the coffee machine

use the machine  to get the water hot if u have no other method to boil water. then drop tea bags into the coffe pot and let sit 5 minutes then remove and drink

Answer 4

I've never tried it.. and it might not work, but you can try it. If you do try it you probably shouldn't put tea bags in, you should try loose tea.

Answer 5

I have and it works fine.  The only problem is that the coffee maker heats the water up more than necessary to make teas, so it denatures the things in the tea (antioxidants) that are good for you.....won't make it bad for you, it just won't have as strong of health benefits.

Answer 6

I run the water through the coffee maker, but put the tea bags in the pot and let it set awhile.

Answer 7

Yes most definately. My mom does it all the time!

Answer 8

Yes it will... but if you've made coffee with it before, then your tea will have a slight coffee taste to it... *blech* :P

Hope this helps!! = ]
