Do you really know your Coffee Maker?
Most people think there is only one type of coffee maker. Many times the automatic coffee maker or espresso machine are the most commonly known. Of course, the choices vary with with so many choices on the market. Machines range from 1 cup coffee makers all the way to 14 cup coffee makers.
The automatic drip coffee maker is probably the most used coffee maker. This coffee maker works a little different producing coffee by heating water that in turn runs over the coffee grounds. Hot water steeps through the coffee and the filter in the bin and drips into an awaiting pot or carafe. Most of the time the coffeemakers have heating pads on the bottom to keep the coffee warm. Some models come with a thermal carafe which allows the coffee drinker to brew a pot of coffee right into the carafe for coffee on the go.
BUNN BTX-B ThermoFresh 10-Cup
There is a saying that you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your price. This has been our experience with other coffee makers….from Mr. Coffee 12-Cup Programmable Cone Coffeemaker, Black to Black & Decker to everything in-between. Finally we decided to bite-the-bullet and buy a Bunn. The Bunn BXT-B is not for everyone and if you don’t plan on brewing a pot every few days you may shun the fact that the Bunn is always on – it really is an expense.
One thing to recognize – please follow the initial set-up guide (I briefly describe it in the video) if you do NOT follow the initial set-up you will likely ruin your Bunn and void your warranty.
Things that I like
- Brew coffee fast…. like 3-minutes fast – I have time to brew a *few* pots in the morning prior to going to work.
- Great Taste – much better than the traditional drip-through method.
- The thermal carafe is awesome – Bunn states that it will keep the coffee hot for 90 minutes, but I find it drinkable for much longer than that.
- Doesn’t steam while brewing – makes it much safer for my cabinets
- Hot water on Demad – just pout the desired amount of water into the top and catch the hot water at the bottom (great for tea….. although it may be a touch warm for hot chocolate).
- Bunn quality – I expect to own this thing for 10 years
Things that you should know PRIOR to purchasing
- Again, this thing is always on… always pulling electricity
- Requires Bunn filters
- You probably will want to buy whole bean coffee such as Batdorf & Bronson Kenya AA, Whole Bean Coffee, 12-Ounce Bags (Pack of 3) and using a burr grinder. I use a cheap one Cuisinart DBM-8 Supreme Grind Automatic Burr Mill but it works well
- You may want to use filtered water
- Does require an occasional cleaning
- It is higher/taller than a standard coffee maker – save yourself some grief and make sure that you have a minimum of 16″ clearance
- The tank remains warm o the touch..always
- I would HIGHLY recommend in spending the extra $$$ and buying the thermal carafe – absolutely worth the extra expense
- Not programmable at all – no clock or fancy electronics on the Bunn BTX-B. It simply brews coffee
Final Verdict – If you make at least a pot a day of coffee this is likely to be an investment that will pay major dividends. Easily the best coffee maker that I have ever used.

Love this machineLever Espresso
Thats me making espresso with my newest toy, a vintage La Pavoni Europiccola (late sixties, early seventies model). I’m using the portafilter of the Olympia Express, because it has much better balance and grip on the handle. The shot turned out a little uneven (wobbling mouse tail), but it was flawless in the taste department. 
The espresso made from a home roasted blend, roasted by a fellow coffee maniac with a modified popcorn maker.
