Not sure of the current price but my 24x7 office had a bunn 12 cup with a thermos carafe that was used at least 5 times a day and lasted over 20 years. And we were on hard well water and didnt use a water filter.
I’ve had my speed brew platinum for years and it’s been great. I’ve had to descale it a few times due to my hard water but outside of that it’s been amazing.
Bunn Speed Brew for the win!
Bunn Rapid Brew, most reliable, consistent and brews a 2 to 10 cups quickly.
I started with an inexpensive Mr Coffee machine, just in case I wasn't going to be a coffee-lovin' exmo. 😆 I graduated to a Bunn Speed Brew coffeemaker with an internal reservoir and love it! I also have a subscription to Lifeboost coffee. It is low acid and easier on my digestive system.
Yup. We’ve owned a restaurant Bunn for a decade. Upgraded to a glass carafe when we got it, replaced that once when it was accidentally dropped. The only negative is it’s not great for single cups. Keep a pour over for that use.
Something to know about the big commercial brewers that I have worked with is that fresh water is pumped into the water tank as the brew is happening. The tank water is heated to 195° to 200° and held there until the operator chooses to brew coffee. The freshly pumped water cools the water in the tank, so your overall brew temp rapidly decreases. The range of temps that the coffee is exposed to during the brew process is large.

App-controlled customization, but unreliable and finicky interface.
