IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Follow these basic safety precautions when using electrical appliances to reduce
the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or personal injury:
•
•
Read all instructions.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use
handles or knobs.
Do not place cord, plugs, or brewer
in water or liquid.
Close supervision is necessary when
the brewer is used by or near chil-
dren.
Unplug from outlet when not in use
and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning.
Do not operate the brewer with a
damaged cord or plug or after the
brewer malfunctions, or has been
damaged in any manner. Return
the brewer to an Authorized Service
Facility for examination, adjustment,
or repair. (Refer to page 13.)
The use of an accessory not evaluated
for use with this brewer may cause
injuries.
•
•
Do not let cord hang over edge of
table or counter, or touch hot sur-
faces.
Do not place the brewer on or near
a hot gas or electric burner, or in a
heated oven.
•
•
•
•
•
Do not use brewer for other than its
intended use.
•
•
Do not place or remove funnel, de-
canter, or decanter lid while brewing.
The decanter is designed for use with
this brewer. It must never be used on
a range top or in a microwave.
Do not set a hot decanter on a cold
surface.
Do not use a cracked decanter or a
decanter having a loose or weakened
handle.
•
•
•
Do not clean decanter with cleansers,
steel wool pads, or other abrasive
materials.
•
•

GENERAL INFORMATION
NOTE - THE BREWER IS NOT READY TO PLUG IN
Improper installation will result in permanent damage and void the war-
ranty. Read & follow the instructions on the next page.
•
•
•
Be certain the tank is full of water before plugging in the brewer. (Requires at
least three quarts to fill).
This brewer is designed to remain plugged in at all times (except during initial
installation or when cleaning.)
A power switch is provided on the lower left side to completely shut off all elec-
trical components when your plans take you away from home for several days.
Safety features, designed into the Bunn® Pour-Omatic® coffee brewer, make the
daily use of this switch unnecessary.
•
•
•
Whenever the brewer has been shut off or unplugged, allow the water in the tank
to heat to the proper temperature before using (about fifteen minutes or until the
heating sound stops).
Your Bunn® Pour-Omatic® coffee brewer has a specially designed tank to keep
the water at the proper temperature. This constant supply of hot water assures
the correct method of brewing coffee, in less than three minutes.
The brewed coffee flows into the decanter where it is kept at serving temperature
on the porcelain decanter warmer. The warmer is controlled by the lighted on/off
switch on the front of the brewer.
NOTE - The warmer switch only controls the decanter warmer.
While coffee is being brewed, the newest water in the tank is heated to the proper
temperature and held until needed.
The decanter lid reduces coffee evaporation and temperature loss.
Hot water, approximately 50˚ F hotter than that available from your hot water
faucet, is always available for other uses.
•
•
•
•
This brewer has an attached, polarized cordset and requires 2-wire grounded
service rated 120 volts ac, 120 amps, single phase, 60 Hz. Do not attempt to
bypass the safety aspect of this polarized plug.
•
The sprayhead will periodically become loose. Using extreme caution not to burn
yourself, retighten the sprayhead with your finger tips.
NOTE - A severe burn may result if the sprayhead becomes loose and
falls off while brewing.

TIMER SETTING - AUTOMATICS ONLY
CAUTION – Disconnect the power source from the brewer prior to the removal
of any panel for the replacement or adjustment of any component.
NOTE: Check that the brewer is connected to water supply, the tank is properly
filled, and a funnel and server are in place, prior to setting or modifying batch sizes.
1. Modifying batch sizes. Turn the ON/OFF Switch to the “ON” position. If the
brewer has a batch selector switch, position it to the size to be changed.
To increase a batch size, Press and hold the START switch until three clicks are
heard. Release the switch (Failure to release the switch within two seconds after
the third click causes the volume setting to be aborted and previous volume setting
will remain in memory) and press it again one or more times. Each time the switch
is pressed, two seconds are added to the brew time period. Allow the brew cycle to
finish in order to verify that the desired volume has been achieved.
To decrease a batch size, Press and release the START switch once for every
two-second interval to be removed from the total brew time period; then immedi-
ately press and hold down the START switch until three clicks are heard. Release
the switch. (Failure to release the switch within two seconds after the third click
causes the volume setting to be aborted and previous volume setting will remain in
memory). Allow the brew cycle to finish in order to verify that the desired volume
has been achieved.
2. Setting batch sizes. Press and hold the START switch until three distinct clicks
are heard (this will take approximately 10 seconds), and then release the switch.
(Failure to release the switch within two seconds after the third click causes the
volume setting to be aborted and previous volume setting will remain in memory).
View the level of the water being dispensed. When the desired level is reached, turn
the ON/OFF switch to “OFF”. The brewer remembers this volume and will continue
to brew batches of this size until the volume setting procedure is repeated. Empty
server(s), flip batch switch to the other position that has yet to be set, and repeat
batch setting procedure until all batch sizes are set.
NOTE: When brewing coffee, batch volumes will decrease due to absorption by
the coffee grounds.

COFFEE FUNDAMENTALS
Brewing delicious coffee is similar to cooking any favorite food. Both require a
good recipe. Proper coffee-making needs quality equipment to precisely control water
temperature, volume, and brew time. The Bunn® coffee brewer assures consistency
in your recipe by controlling all of these elements. The only variables remaining in
the recipe are the grind and amount of coffee used.
The amount of ground coffee is generally determined by the grind. For best
results, we recommend a drip (medium) grind.
Hot water extracts many elements from the ground coffee, some desirable,
some not. The taste and aroma are referred to as strength, the acidity as bitterness.
Increasing the amount of coffee results in a stronger beverage, and decreasing it
results in a weaker beverage.
As the amount of ground coffee decreases, you’ll note an increase in the bit-
terness of the beverage. This happens because the hot water begins to remove the
undesirable elements such as acidity after all of the desirable tastes and aroma have
been removed.
Fresh ground coffee gives the best results. Always store the ground coffee in
a cool, dry area away from other food items with strong odors. When stored in a
refrigerator, keep it in an airtight container.
BREWING TIPS
When properly brewed, the difference between the best quality ground coffee
and a poor quality ground coffee becomes very dramatic. Proper brewing requires
little effort with the Bunn® Pour-Omatic® coffee brewer.
You’ll always have a great coffee experience if you follow these tips:
1) Always start with clean equipment.
2) Always use fresh cold water.
3) Always use Bunn® paper coffee filters for proper extraction.
4) Using 2 ounces of fresh drip grind coffee for each full pot (4 oz) will give you a
consistently great pot of coffee with a full-bodied flavor and aroma. However,
the real criteria is personal taste. Adjust the recipe until it suits you. If you need
to make a smaller batch, experiment with less water and ground coffee.
5) Keep the beverage at the correct serving temperature by setting the decanter on
the porcelain warmer. For the freshest flavor, don’t keep brewed coffee for longer
than an hour.
HOT WATER
The same basic steps can be used to obtain hot water by omitting the filter and
coffee and using the enclosed hot water funnel. The hot water from your Bunn®
coffee brewer is approximately 200˚ F. This is hotter than the hot water from your
faucet and must be handled with care.
43422.1 010311
11
ROUTINE CLEANING
Rinsing the brew funnel and decanter after each use
is the only routine cleaning required. Occasionally, wipe
the outside of the brewer including the area above the
funnel with a damp cloth. (The brew funnel, hot water
funnel and decanter are top rack dishwasher safe.)
P2083
HANDLE MAINTENANCE
Using a phillips screw driver, periodically tighten the screw in the handle.
DELIMING
Periodically, you should delime the brewer to clear any deposits that may have
accumulated due to impurities in the water source.
1) Unscrew the sprayhead with your fingertips and set
it aside.
2) Insert all but two inches of the flexible deliming spring
probe (supplied) through the sprayhead opening.
3) Slide the tool in and out five or six times to loosen
P2084
mineral deposits collected in the sprayhead tube.
Remove it and set it aside.
4) Check the holes in the sprayhead for mineral deposits.
These may be cleared by using a toothpick. Rinse the
sprayhead with water before reinstalling.
5) Plug in the brewer and allow the water in the tank
to reheat before using the brewer. The frequency
of deliming depends on the mineral content of your
water.
P2085
SOFTENED WATER and/or DECAFFEINATED COFFEE
Bunn® coffee brewers will brew a perfect decanter of coffee when used with
unsoftened tap water and regular coffee. If there’s a noticeable difference when us-
ing softened water and/or decaffeinated coffee, telephone or write us to request a
special sprayhead and use a coarser grind of coffee.
WATER QUALITY
Install a water conditioner if your water contains excessive amounts of sediment,
taste, or odors.
43422.1 010311
12
DRAINING THE BREWER
The water in your Bunn® Coffee Brewer should be emptied whenever it is taken
on a trip, shipped, or stored in an unheated location with a chance of freezing.
1) Unplug the brewer and cool the hot water in the tank.
Place the empty decanter on the warmer. Simply pour a
full water pitcher of cold water into the top of the brewer,
close the lid and wait for the water to stop flowing from
the funnel. Empty the decanter, repeat. This will cool the
water in the tank.
P2084
2) Remove sprayhead by turning counterclockwise with your
fingertips and set it aside.
3) Grasp the back of the brewer and quickly turn it upside
down over a sink as shown. Most of the water in the tank
will flow from the sprayhead opening but some water may
flow from the area around the top lid. Continue tipping
the brewer until the flow of water ceases.
P2082
4) Reinstall the sprayhead when all water has drained from
the brewer. Securely tighten it by turning clockwise.
NOTE: Refer to “PREPARING THE BREWER FOR USE” before us-
ing the brewer.
HIGH ALTITUDE USE
