HOT WATER

The same basic steps used to brew coffee or tea can be used to obtain hot water by leaving the coffee pod or tea bag/pod out of the pod holder. CAUTION: The water from your BUNN® Pod brewer is approximately 200°F (93°C). This is hotter than the hot water from your faucet and must be handled with care.

COFFEE FUNDAMENTALS

Brewing delicious coffee is similar to cooking any favorite food. Both require a good recipe. Proper coffee making requires quality equipment to precisely control water temperature, volume, and brew time. The BUNN® Pod brewer assures consistency in your recipe by controlling all of these elements. The only variables remaining in the recipe are the amount of coffee and the volume of hot water used to extract the desired flavor.

The amount of coffee is generally determined by the pod size. (Pod size can vary and is determined by the manufacturer.) For best results, we recommend following the chart provided in the “Golden Cup Standard” section. (See Fig. 3, Page 12)

Hot water extracts many elements from the coffee, some desirable, some not. The amount of coffee used and the amount of water passed through the coffee determines strength. Increasing the amount of coffee (by using a larger pod) results in a stronger beverage. Decreasing the amount of coffee (by using a smaller pod) with the same amount of water, results in a weaker beverage. Too much water and too little coffee can result in over-extraction. Over-extracting the coffee can cause an unwanted bitter taste.

As the amount of coffee decreases, you’ll note an increase in the bitterness of the beverage. This happens because the hot water begins to remove the undesirable elements after all of the desirable elements have been extracted.

Fresh coffee gives the best results. Always store the coffee pods in a sealed, air tight container. Store in a cool, dry area away from other food items with strong odors.

BREWING TIPS

When properly brewed, the difference between the best quality coffee and a poor quality coffee becomes very dramatic. Proper brewing requires little effort with the BUNN® Pod 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)Use the chart in the “Golden Cup Standard” section to achieve a consistently great cup 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 stronger cup of coffee, experiment with less water or larger pods. The serving size range is 4 to 12 oz. (118 to 355 ml) as indicated on the Volume Control Indicator.
