COFFEE FUNDAMENTALS
Brewing delicious coffee is similar to cooking any favorite food. Both require
a good recipe. Proper coffee brewing requires quality equipment to precisely
control water temperature, volume, and brew time. The BUNN
®
coffee brewer
assures consistency in your recipe by controlling all of these elements. The only
variables remaining in the recipe are the grind and amount of coffee used.
The amount of ground coffee is generally determined by the grind. For best
results, we recommend a drip (medium) grind.
Hot water extracts many elements from the ground coffee. The taste and
aroma are referred to as strength, the acidity as bitterness. Increasing the amount
of ground coffee results in a stronger beverage, and decreasing it results in a
weaker beverage.
As the amount of ground 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 such as acidity after all of the desirable tastes and aroma
have been removed.
Fresh-ground coffee gives the best results. Always store the ground coffee in
a cool, dry area away from other food items with strong odors. When stored in
a refrigerator, keep coffee in an airtight container.
BREWING TIPS
When coffee is properly brewed, the difference between the best quality
ground coffee and a poor quality ground coffee becomes very dramatic. Proper
brewing requires little effort with the BUNN
®
coffee brewer.
You'll have a great coffee experience if you follow these tips:
1) Start with clean equipment.
2) Use fresh cold water.
3) Use BUNN
®
paper coffee filters for proper extraction.
4) Using a minimum of 2 ounces of fresh drip grind coffee for each full pot will
give you a consistently great pot 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 smaller batch, experiment with less water
and ground coffee. The minimum batch is 4 cups as indicated on the
decanter.
5) Keep the beverage at the correct serving temperature by setting the decanter
on the porcelain warmer. For the freshest flavor, do not hold brewed coffee
on the warmer for longer than an hour.
DECANTER HANDLE MAINTENANCE
Using a standard screw driver, periodically tighten the screw in the
handle. Be careful not to overtighten the screw.
