Bunn MCAA manual Features, Control Panel

CONTROL PANEL (Cont.)

HEATING INDICATOR - This light indicates that the heater is bringing water up to temperature. A brew cycle cannot be started until the indicator has gone out. (During a brew cycle, this light will come on indicating the tank heater is warming the new water entering the tank.)

POD HOLDER INDICATOR - This indicator identifies a missing or unlocked pod holder. Before a brew cycle can be started, the pod holder must be inserted and locked into place.

TEA BREW BUTTON - Depress this button to brew a serving of tea or coffee. Pressing it again will cancel a brew cycle in process. You will notice that the water flow will pulse on and off when brewing with this setting. This is normal. (Can also be used to brew a stronger more robust serving of coffee.)

VOLUME CONTROL INDICATOR - The markings on the bottom of the control panel correspond to the VOLUME CONTROL SLIDE LEVER and are used for setting the brew volume. (Approximately 118 to 355 ml (4 to 12 oz.) servings in 30 ml (1 oz.) increments can be brewed based on the setting of the lever.)

NOTE: Because some pods will absorb more water than others, the finished serving size may vary slightly.

FEATURES

SLEEP MODE - If the brewer has been idle for 6 hours, it will reduce power to conserve energy. After 26 hours, the brewer will shut down completely. When either of these two sleep modes occur, the Pod Holder Release Button will no longer be glowing red. To wake the brewer up, press either the Coffee or Tea Brew button, or eject the pod holder. The light and heater will come back on.

BREW CANCEL - If it is necessary to cancel a brew cycle, this can be done by pressing either the Coffee or Tea button again. Although some water may drip out, the pump will immediately stop forcing water through the pod holder. Always wait for hot liquid to stop before removing the pod holder.

CAUTION: When a brew cycle is canceled, it will not finish dispensing it’s previous brew volume when the button is pressed again. The memory is reset and the brewer will dispense a full volume as indicated by the Volume Control Lever. This could cause a container to overflow if it is not emptied prior to pressing the button a second time.

MIN & MAX MARKINGS - The side of the water reservoir bears the markings “MIN” and “MAX”. These markings indicate the minimum and maximum amount of water that can be placed in the reservoir. If the minimum amount of water is not in the reservoir, the brewer will not operate. These markings are referenced throughout this booklet.

PULSE BREW™ - Using the Tea Button will cause the brewer to perform a pulse brew operation. A Pulse Brew cycles the water on and off to effectively steep the tea to extract the proper flavor. The “On-Off-On” water flow is normal. Always wait for the blue (brew) lights to go out, and the red BUNN light to come back on before carefully removing the mug or pod holder. Pressing either brew button during this operation will stop the brew cycle. (See the “Brew Cancel” feature above for more information.)
