Default Making large amounts of iced tea efficiently

I love iced tea and often use loose darjelling 2nd flush from Stash
Tea.
Since I go through about 2 gallons a week and have limited time, I
like to make it on the weekend and have enough for the week in my
fridge.
Right now the process is time consuming and Im looking for more
efficient methods of making a large quantity of iced tea.

I filter my water in a brita pitcher and pour it in batches into a
lage pot.
I then boil the water in a large pot on the stove.
Then i add a large tea ball with measured amount of tea leaves
I remove the ball, add a lid to the pot and let it cool for 5 hours or
so.
Then i pour the tea into several pitchers (its hard not to spill since
the pot I use doesnt have a spout).
