You beat me to the punch on the sweet tea, Bryndian_Dhai, but I am sure that is all for the better considering you are further south than I am, and are probably more of an expert on the subject. When I make it, I use the concentrate method using 20 bags per gallon and only steeping four minutes. I have never tried the slow method using few teabags. Perhaps I will try tomorrow....
Also, I would be careful using hot tap water, as it is really not meant for human consumption. A look at the bottom of a hot water heater would tell you why.
