You know what, I’m totally wrong. Well atleast for normal purchases. Looks like I just got lucky with an old one with a metal tank.
Same as the Bunn VP17s, if you get an old enough one it’ll be all metal. Guess it’s doable but harder to find/confirm before throwing down a couple hundred
If you just want a basic coffee maker, I’d suggest Bunn. But if you’re just making it for yourself, or need something different, I don’t have a recommendation.
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.

Durable, repairable workhorse, but pricey with basic features.
