Easy Pulse

This is a simplified version of Pulse Brew. It is programmed by selecting the time period of brew water dispense. Easy Pulse allows the operator to input a set time for which the brewer software will determine a pulse sequence.

Easy Pour®

An exclusive design used in decanters to assure convenient serving with a drip-proof, fast pouring lip from front or either side.

Dynamic Water Pressure

Dynamic pressure is the measurement of moving water in a closed condition, such as in a water line.

Drip Time

The length of time from when the water spray over the grounds ends, to the time that no water drips from the funnel tip

Dilution

A function used to reduce strength of a concentrate for cold beverages. Generally cold tap water is blended with tea or coffee concentrate.

Deliming Tool

The deliming tool is used to remove lime build up in the sprayhead, bypass port, and sprayhead fitting. This tool is used differently depending on what you are cleaning.

Deliming Spring

The deliming spring is used to remove lime build up in the sprayhead tube on machines that do not have dispense valves. To use this tool, remove the sprayhead and insert the spring into the sprayhead tube and use a sawing motion, back and forth to losen and remove the lime build up.

DBC

Digital Brewer Control, BUNN was among the first in the dispensed beverage industry to introduce advanced beverage technology to the industry with Digital Brewer Control systems that allow users to precisely and consistently meet specific flavor profiles while also reducing training and labor costs.

Cool Froth®

Technology used in BUNN super automatic espresso systems that perfectly foams cold milk for great tasting iced beverages.

Contactor

A contactor is a heavy duty relay designed to handle switching large load components. This device is used in machines with multiple tank heaters or tank heaters that exceed 4000 watts. The contactor is energized by turning on the control thermostat, and supplies power to the tank heater(s).

Condenser Fan

Condenser fan moves air across the condenser coil and fins to increase the transfer of heat. Obstructing the flow of air will reduce efficiency of cooling but can lead to compressor failure.

Compressor

Draws a vacuum or low pressure on the cooling side of the refrigerant cycle and compresses the gas into the high pressure or condensing side of the cycle. A compressor is one of the main components in the makeup of a refrigeration system.

Clamp-On-Ammeters

Clamp-On Ammeters are the recommended tool used for testing current and perhaps the most convenient. It is a non-invasive procedure, you simply clamp the meter onto one wire at a time. If you grab two wires they will cancel each other out and you will get an incorrect reading.

Chip

A computer chip containing either recipes for specific coffee flavors or advertising messages which are read by the sensing coils on the brewer. One chip is embedded in each Smart Funnel® handle to carry the coffee flavor name and batch size ground from the grinder to the brewer.

Capacitor

A component that acts similarly to a battery, it stores an electric charge then releases it when required. This device is found most generally on our grinder motors and compressors.

Bypass

A function, like dilution, that reduces strength of a concentrate but it is intended for hot beverages. Generally, hot water is blended with coffee concentrate. Variable bypass allows different bypass rates for various brew volumes (small, medium and large) within a recipe.

BUNNLink®

An automated monitoring and communication system that detects pending service problems and forwards alerts for service.

Brix Pump

A proportioning device, which pumps two liquids (water and concentrate) in an exact ratio. The ratio is determined by the pump design, and is maintained precisely. The pump operates on the source pressure of one of the proportioned liquids; typically the incoming water eliminating the need for CO2 or electric power. Vacuum shut off is designed within the brix pump when the concentrate bag-in-box is totally empty to stop operation of brix pump.

BrewWIZARD®

A programming feature that provides quick access to the most utilized setup parameters including a lockout feature to prevent brewing when actual water temperature is below the Ready temperature. Features include: brew lockout, brew ounces, enable ads, enter service number and BrewMETER®.

BrewWISE®

A programming feature with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) communications between grinder, funnel and brewer for custom warmer and recipe management without error. Works in conjunction with SMART Hopper, SMART Funnel, and a Recipe Writer/Card.

BrewMETER®

A programming feature that simplifies Pulse Brew and allows extraction manipulation with the touch of a button.

BrewLOGIC®

A programming feature that compensates for flow-rate variations to maintain consistent dispense levels when water quality is a consideration.

Brew Lockout

The inability to initiate a brew if the water temperature is less than the ready temperature programmed into the brewer.

Basin Wrench

The basin wrench is a multi-function tool that is used to rebuild various solenoid valves.

Auger Drive Shaft Assembly

A shaft assembly containing torsion springs while engaged to a motor shaft will flex depending upon thickness of the product during auger rotation.

Air Pump

Used either to pressurize the hot water tank or create turbulence in a brewing chamber during the brew process. Used in equipment such as SmartWAVE and trifecta.

AD Card

An assembly consisting of computer chips and an instructional label. Used for loading advertising messages into the brewer.
