Bunn BXB Coffee Maker,
The Bunn BXB is an excellent coffee maker, but requires a different understanding of brewing coffee.
Instead of super heating the water immediately before spraying it over the grounds, this coffee maker has a stainless steel tank that stores hot water at around 200 degree fahrenheit. This enables the coffee maker to spray hot rather than super heated water over the grounds, eliminating the scorched taste and power surges associated with fast heating. Fresh water poured into the reservoir at the top flows into the bottom of the storage tank pushing hot water out the top onto the waiting coffee grounds making a hot pot of coffee in under three minutes. The storage tank takes about 15 minutes to heat the first time and will hold almost two carafes worth of water.
My last Bunn lasted 15 years and failed due to a design flaw, which has been fixed in this model. Other coffee brewers were lucky to last 5 years.
My old Bunn coffee maker had the hot water tank in direct contact with the water reservoir in the top of the maker. This contact caused the water reservoir to disintegrate and leak whenever fresh water was poured into the coffee maker.
In the new model, this contact point is removed, separating the hot water tank from the water reservoir by about 1/2 inch. In addition, the reservoir now has a valve that doesn’t release the water into the hot water tank until the cover on the reservoir is closed. No more spilled water if you’re not fast enough with the carafe or forget the carafe needs to be in position before pouring in fresh water. This new feature also means no need to use and store the separate measuring/fill container.
My only problem with this design is the lack of insulation around the hot water tank. Because the water stays constantly hot, the coffee maker is a heat source that must be guarded against and is warm enough to be uncomfortable although not hot enough to burn. This lack of insulation also results in heat/energy being lost that could be conserved. (I use this excess heat to pre-warm canned catfood for my pride of cats by placing the catfood on top of the coffee maker. It heats the canned catfood just enough without overheating.)
Because this coffee maker is constantly plugged in, it may not be useable in some businesses that have rules about leaving appliances plugged in overnight to prevent fires. It is, however, an excellent coffee maker where coffee/hot water is needed 24/7.
Other than that, a great coffee maker that I’ll buy again — in 15 to 20 years.
(Note: This is NOT the high altitude model designed for use above 5,000 feet. The high altitude models are the “D” models.)

|Bunn Coffee Makers Give Controlled Water Temp.,
The feature I appreciate the most in a Bunn coffee maker is that it produces water at a controlled temperature. Coffee has a better flavor if the water temperature is between 180 and 190 degrees. Over 190 degrees and the coffee flavor becomes bitter, below 180 degrees and the strength is decreased. The Bunn gives hot water of the correct temperature immediately and through out the brewing. Other brands produce hotter and hotter water as what you poured in runs out. Tip: I have learned that high water temp. and oxygen ruin coffee.

|Great reliable cup of coffee.,
Cons:
Standard grocery-store filters are shorter than the type that works best in this machine, but you can get by with the grocery-store variety. It just makes a little more mess in the grinds-basket.
You have to wait 15 minutes for the machine to heat the tank of water before you can turn on the drip coffee function. This is pain if you don’t use it for more than one pot of coffee, but not really much more wait time than a standard brewer — it just requires you come back after 15 minutes and click it on.
Retro “Denny’s” look.
No programmable settings.
Pros:
No programmable settings to learn.
Once heated, it makes very consistent coffee in 3 minutes. It sprays super-hot water all over the coffee grounds (in a circular pattern) so you get a really even flavor from all your grounds.
If you’re making more than 1 pot of coffee, this machine is even better.
