Making tea in the coffee pot

I use Lipton decaffeinated tea. I make it in the coffee maker. It doesn't seem as good as brewed on the stove. I was thinking about running the tea thru the maker twice.

Good idea?

sorry i got all dizzy and blurry after decaffeinated tea ...

what do you mean you make it in the coffee maker?! you put the tea bag in the filter holder and let water drip on it?

or you have a pod machine? these are designed to extract all the "flavor" in the first pass, so running a 2nd time would only dilute your final drink.

I don't think so. A tolerance for caffeine is the main thing that distinguishes us from the insects.

Sounds great! Don't forget to add the peanut butter, some of the oil from the sardine tin, and just a LITTLE bit of the syrup from a bottle of marascino cherries for that extra little something.

During a commercial break on the Food Netwok, Alton Brown showed how he can have a hot breakfast in a hotel room by making instant oatmeal in the coffee maker. He adds honey and jam or jelly, but I'm thinking it will still have a coffee flavor. Probably tolerable to coffee drinkers, but I doubt I would like it.

And he only ran it through once. ;-)
