The NHBX is the newest drip brewer in the Bunn line, and it was a step in a different direction from Bunn’s classic designs – past and present. The design changes are purely cosmetic and the NHBX packs the same list of features and performance found on all Bunn coffee brewers. Its foot print is slightly smaller as well. This new, more styled look has made this brewer one of the most popular models.
Modeled after commercial coffee makers, the Bunn NHBX can brew up to 10 cups of coffee in just three minutes. It utilizes a water reservoir to keep water hot and on standby, always ready to brew a pot of piping hot coffee quickly and without the normal wait time associated with other home brewers.
How does the Bunn NHBX do this? When you first set the Bunn NHBX up, you add up to 10 cups of cold water to the water reservoir and turn the power switch on. It will take about 15 minutes to heat the water initially. This water will stay hot and ready until you go to brew a pot of coffee. To begin brewing, you simply add cold water to the reservoir, which then displaces the hot water already in the system. This hot water is sent to the filter basket instantly where it diffuses through your freshly ground coffee. Afterwards, the cold water you just poured in will be heated for your next round of coffee brewing. And if you're planning to be away, just flip the Vacation switch and the heating unit won't continue to maintain the water temperature in a ready state.
Bunn backs up every coffee brewer with a three year warranty!
In addition you can expect expert support and service from the company that knows a thing or two about coffee brewers since they have been in the business for over 50 years!
Detailed Product Features:
Simple Controls
Simple and quick operation is the key with the NHBX. There are no timers or clocks. Two switches control the whole operation. The main power switch is located on the side of the machine and it is called the Vacation switch. Since the NHBX is always keeping the water hot, you should turn the brewer off before leaving for extended periods of time (longer than 2 days). When you return, turn on the switch and the machine will be ready to brew coffee after 15 minutes of heating. An illuminated switch located on the front of the machine turns the warming plate for the carafe on or off.
Durable Construction
The housing is made of durable plastic and the water reservoir, visible in the picture, is made of brushed stainless steel.
Hot Plate
Unique to Bunn, the hot plate is made of porcelain and features an on/off switch.
Stainless Steel Boiler
The boiler is made of stainless steel to insure long life and better tasting coffee. It is equipped with a thermostat that regulates the water temperature so that it is kept at the optimum temperature for brewing.
Advanced Spray Head Water Diffuser
In order to achieve the optimum flavor and aroma extraction from the coffee grounds, hot water must saturate all of the grounds early on in the brewing process. Bunn designed the spray head to shower every inch of the coffee grounds.
Installation & Accessories
Your Bunn coffee brewer has excellent instructions and brewing tips, and they are key to the proper set up and use of your brewer. Since the Bunn brewers are unique in their simple operation, be sure to follow the few steps required to get started.
The advanced spray head requires occasional cleaning to prevent lime build up in the screen. Bunn included a clever device for cleaning, which resembles a long slender spring. Detailed instructions on how to use it are included. They also include a complimentary supply of fluted coffee filters.
