Bunn - Velocity Brew NHS

forever missing my bunn velocity brew

Yes! I went through two Bunns over the years. They are fast and reliable machines and last forever. (Unfortunately, both of mine got farmed OVERNIGHT by tiny ants when it got cold out.)

These are absolutely rock solid and I’m a huge coffee snob. Personally I’m gonna rock the commercial grade Bunn and sink $ into a new grinder but good stuff

1-2 pots a day get a mocamaster. They go on sale I think I got mine for 170 2 years ago. I got the thermal carafe one and just take the pot to my desk in the morning. A gripe I have is I have to fill it to the absolute brim to get 3 normal coffee cup out of each pot. If your household drinks a lot of coffee (4+ a day), get a used commercial BUNN. Those things will not only last decades but make really good coffee. The non commercial one is kind of meh. These are the best for cheapish coffee (Folgers, Maxwell House) but also better grounds. My personal preference is like BUNN made coffee better for daily drinking as I’m also a cheap ass and only use the good coffee 1-2x a week.

I like Bunn coffee machines. I bought one at a restaurant supply store. It's still making coffee somewhere :-)

My husband got me hookes on a BUNN coffee maker. Imo it makes a really good cup of coffee and is comparable to my French press that we use when the power goes out.

Not exactly cheap but I would get a Bunn. They are amazing, simple to use and built to last. They really only 2 buttons and one stays on. The other is the hot plate.

Bummer. my gramma was the same way and absolutely adored her [bunn machine](https://www.amazon.com/BUNN-Velocity-Brew-Coffee-Brewer/dp/B07CVN81DQ). dead simple: add coffee, add water, ready in three minutes. i know for a fact she had one last 20+ years before retiring. eta: there are no electronics. no timer, no programming, just add water and turn on.

My biggest gripe about the Bunn machines is that it keeps the water constantly hot. I do not like that. I know they are rather efficient, but I dont like the idea of the heater running all the time. Ive had them at work, and they are awesome for big offices who drink lots of coffee. For one pot of coffee in the morning, its overkill for my use .

not a coffee expert here. but my old bunn commercial drip has been doing fine for 20 years, theyre pricey from a restaurant supply company but if you can track down a used one at a decent price theyre nice to have, its commercial grade so literally everything on it is replaceable, heating element, sensors, switches, hot plates all of it is readily available. mine is plumbed into the water supply, so just grind the beans dump them into the filter basket and hit the button, 3 minutes later fresh coffee. mine has a 2nd warmer on top so it can keep 2 pots going for large gatherings. does need taken apart and cleaned on occasion to deal with the limewater scaling and couple of pots of vinegar run thru it to get it back to top form. if you are using water thru a softnening system that gets cut back dramatically, way less minerals to build up in your coffeemaker.
