- in the market, there are various types of coffee makers. But most coffee makers are to make hot water then put the Teabag or imbue or loose tea in the water. If you have a k-cup machine, there are pods with tea in them. On the other side, there are some other coffee makers where the water temperature of coffee makers can vary widely and the water somewhere around 200 degrees, which is too hot for nearly all types of Tea (except Black tea).
