How to unlock the Tea. Earl Grey. Hot. achievement in Gears of War 4 - Definitive Guide
Here's a short solution for this achievement:
Max Level for the fabricator is 4 and to upgrade it, you need to collect the energy that the enemies drop when you kill them AND use it afterwards to build barricades or other reinforcements from the fabricator.
Everytime your fabricator does an update, you will be able to upgrade your previously built low-level sieges by picking them up with and upgrade it afterwards with . This will add the amount of energy used to the level-counter of the fabricator.
Repairing broken reinforcements or reloading tourrets won't count towards fabricator updates.
About the Levels:
Level 1 ==> 2: 30'000 Energy
Level 2 ==> 3: 90'000 Energy
Level 3 ==> 4: 120'000 Energy
How to do it (Easy way):
You need: 2 players at least (Just to keep the difficulty down)
Classes: Engineer + Scout (Rest may vary)
Difficulty: Easy (Lowest)
Map: The one you like the most / you are best in
Startup the game and work yourself through the waves. It's necessary that the scout is collecting all the energy (His class gives him a collection Bonus on dropped enemies). Make sure that you let the last enemy live. That's important, because the bonus is lost, when a wave is finished. Collected energy in the pause between the waves is the same for every player. If you need some bonus energy, go for executions. An execution gives you a small bonus on your energy-counter. It's up to your playing style, but we prefered to not buy anything from the fabricator until we had finished wave 20. We got around 150k energy at the start of wave 21.
To go fast towards the level ups, invest in tourrets (self firing) and add some traps and barricades to enhance their effectivity. Anyways, we hit the Level 4 mark around waves 31-33.
Our Lineup:
Engineer lvl 1: Bonus: 100% Effectivity
Scout lvl 2: Bonus: +40% Shotgun Damage
Sniper lvl 2: Bonus +60% Ammo for Snipers
You see, we were pretty low leveled but with a familiar map and good communication it's cake.
Bonus Info: We had the Fabricator on level 4 and i invited another friend to play with us and he got the achievement mid-joining.

I said it, it's up to your own playing style. We just didn't use the credits until we were able to do some updates. Boss waves usually destroyed everything in worst cases. We went save til wave 20 and then were armored heavily. In the end, it doesn't really matter. I just used it as an example :) But thanks for your feedback.

We were 3 people initially and when we reached level 4. So its for everyone playing at the lobby which has a fabricator on level 4.
And yes the friend joined a few minutes after we reached level 4 and got the achievement while seeing the loading screen. But you should first check the status in the achievement app on your one. Maybe its stuck. In that case dont worry too much. Normally you will get it 48h after "unlocking" it. And the timestamp should be ok too =).
And the method you mentioned should do it the way you explained it.

Horde mode. The fabricator has a total of 4 levels. The energy spent in the game to fill the Fabricator's gauge is counted.
Level 1 => 2: 30,000 Energy.
Level 2 => 3: 90,000 Energy.
Level 3 => 4: 120,000 Energy.
Basically, the fabricator is improved by the Engineer, as he has a discount and it is he who builds the fortifications. You don't have to be an Engineer to get the achievement. It will be issued to the entire team as soon as the fabricator in the game reaches level 4.

It is best to play at least in pairs. A scout with a level 5 card “to increase the flow of energy” collects energy (during a wave you get more for collecting), then hands it over to the fabricator, and the engineer already builds it. Usually the 4th level of the fabricator was achieved by wave 30
