Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Housed in commercial-grade materials with stainless-steel accents, this unique reservoir-style home-brewing system makes up to 10 cups (50 ounces) of coffee in just three minutes, plus it keeps hot water available for tea or other uses as needed. The coffee brewer's specially designed stainless-steel water tank features an internal thermostat, which keeps water at an ideal temperature for maximum flavor and fast brewing. The unit's patented sprayhead design improves coffee-flavor extraction, while its porcelain-coated warming plate with a lighted "on/off" switch helps keep brewed coffee at the optimal serving temperature for hours. Other highlights include a durable glass decanter with a generous handle, a convenient close-and-brew lid, and a vacation switch that turns the tank heater off when the unit is not in use for several days. The home coffee brewer measures 13-4/5 by 7 by 14-4/5 inches and carries a three-year limited warranty.

Product Description

The BUNN BXBD Velocity Brew High Altitude Classic 10-Cup Home Brewer in Black is specifically designed for use in high altitude areas, which includes a specially engineered thermostat for use above 4,000 feet and above. This special version of the BUNN BX-B offers BUNN brewing perfection with the classic, stainless steel accented design that customers have loved for years. Patterned after BUNN's commercial and restaurant brewing systems, this home brewer puts high quality materials and classic brewing technology into one great package. The stainless steel tank holds the brew water at the optimal brewing temperature required to extract the maximum flavor from coffee. The brewer uses a specially designed sprayhead to create optimum turbulence in the funnel for just the right amount of time. As a result, BUNN home brewers produce 10 cups of perfect coffee in about three minutes, less than half the time of most regular coffee makers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bunn BXB Coffee Maker, June 17, 2009
This review is from: BUNN BXBD Velocity Brew High Altitude 10-Cup Home Brewer, Black (Kitchen)
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.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great reliable cup of coffee., February 7, 2009
By 
J. Blair (CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: BUNN BXBD Velocity Brew High Altitude 10-Cup Home Brewer, Black (Kitchen)
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bunn Coffee Makers Give Controlled Water Temp., March 20, 2009
By 
This review is from: BUNN BXBD Velocity Brew High Altitude 10-Cup Home Brewer, Black (Kitchen)
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.
