The LITIFO Black 2.0 uses a 304-grade decorative stainless steel wrap over a sturdy plastic housing, providing a modern look for the kitchen counter. The 2.5-quart pitcher is made from BPA-free polypropylene, a material selected for its impact resistance and thermal stability. A mechanical sliding selector allows users to control the water flow through the steeping chamber, effectively adjusting the strength of the final brew.
Features include a wide-base pitcher design that provides extra stability during high-volume fills. Practical reality suggests a monthly descaling with a vinegar solution to keep the sliding mechanism and internal channels free from mineral deposits. The system is compatible with both bagged and loose-leaf tea, offering flexibility for different brewing preferences.
Tests indicate that the pitcher geometry is optimized for a specific ice-to-liquid ratio, ensuring that the tea is properly chilled without becoming overly diluted. Users should ensure the pitcher is flush against the unit to engage the brew valve correctly. This system is a reliable "workhorse" for those who want a quick and easy way to make large batches of iced tea at home.
If you prefer a 3-quart capacity with a high-density mesh filter, the Wirsh Iced Tea Maker is an excellent alternative. Browse our iced tea brewers for more high-capacity countertop models.
