    Can I make iced tea with a machine?

    It's the boiling part that's too hard for me. My routine is: put a pot of water on to boil, go upstairs to study, and then come down a half-hour later to find the pot dry and ruined. Actually, come to think of it I guess that's why they make those whistling teapots people always have on TV and...

    Can I make iced tea with a machine?

    Thanks, I'm looking at some of the machines. It says you can use loose tea. That's supposed to be better than tea bags, right? I've only ever used bags. Also, I assume if I leave out the ice that I could also use these things to brew hot tea? There's one question that's hopefully addressed in...

    Can I make iced tea with a machine?

    I've been trying to not drink so much cola and instead drink tea which I like more and has less suger and more caffiene. Iced tea comes in 2-liters at the store, but it has too much sugar, 8/11 as much as cola does. I like a little sugar but not like that. Can I make iced tea with a a coffee...

    Regarding packaging, most of it is in standard supermarket packaging, with a foam tray and shrink-wrap and top. Also those are loosely held in plastic grocery bags.

    New vs old vs generic George Foreman grill

    I used to have a George Foreman grill and I liked it. I was thinking of getting a new one. They have removable plates now, which is good, but no temperature control. Which is better? I read one review saying the standard size doesn't get hot enough, as hot as the "champ". Is it hot enough? Also...

    How long does frozen fresh meat & fish last?

    I have some various meat and fish in my freezer. (By "fresh" I just meant uncooked, some of it may have been frozen before I bought it.) I have some chicken and salmon that is two years old. Is that too old? How long does this stuff last? Forgive me if this has been asked before.

    What is a good dishwasher ?

    By the way, I have a GE Quietpower, one of the ones under recall. (they come out and replace a few parts, or they offer $150 towards a new one.) We've had it for 7 years so far and it still works like new. It cleans very well, it has all the needed settings, and it has a timer. To be fair it's...

    What is a good dishwasher ?

    What is a good dishwasher? It's a machine that effectively washes dishes, and silverware, and pots and pans, but that's not important right now.
