With BUNN Speed Brew Technology, making great tasting coffee is not only fast, but simple. After the one time initial set-up process, simply add your favorite coffee to the filter basket, pour in fresh water, close the lid and the coffeemaker begins to brew immediately. The secret is that BUNN Speed/Velocity Brew home coffeemakers feature a stainless steel water tank that is always on and ready to brew hot coffee on demand. In fact, they brew a 10-cup pot of coffee in about three minutes. That’s fast!
BUNN BREWS DIFFERENTLY - The BUNN Speed Brew uses an internal commercial grade stainless steel hot water tank that keeps 70oz of water always hot so you can quickly brew at the flip of a lid..Note: 1)Too coarse a grind, too little coffee, or insufficiently tamping the grounds before brewing can all lead to inadequate pressure for a proper brew. 2)It is important to note that the amount of espresso extracted will vary depending on the grind size and amount and reprogramming may be needed when the size and amount are adjusted

Title: BUNN GRB Velocity Brew 10 cup home
Review: We had a BUNN at work and I wanted one at home. If you are familiar with BUNN you probably understand why and that’s why you’re looking at these. Thus far it has performed well. The cup capacity is just right for us - two people can get two large mugs of coffee each per brew. I bought the plastic pitcher that is offered for filling the tank but truthfully you don’t need it. Setup is easy IMO, just follow the directions or there is a video you can watch but we didn’t need it. The directions are clear and adequate. It is FAST! It brews a pot in about 3 minutes and the coffee is hot and it brings out the full rich taste and smells divine. It does not have an auto shut off so you do need to be mindful of that because it keeps whatever is left in the pot hot all day until you do turn it off. You can’t program it to wake you to the smell of coffee but we just set it up the night before, fill the carafe with water just as any other and in the morning pour, push the button and you are ready before you can say Bob’s your uncle, or as I said, 3 minutes. I also bought the BUNN filters but we’ve been using the same ones from our previous coffee maker until they are gone and have had no issues with them. I have not emptied the water tank and given it an overall cleaning. I will need an assistant to lift it though I do not anticipate a problem. It doesn’t say how often to do that but I generally cleaned my others every 2 months so it’s not time yet. There is nothing to make it look intimidating. Husband really likes it. It’s a little on the pricey side but that was not a surprise. It’s probably the basic model of BUNN but we are both happy with the performance and look forward to enjoying it for hopefully more than a year or two as has been the case with some of our other coffee makers.

Title: Fastest coffee maker around
Review: We are coffee drinkers - gotta have it first thing in the morning. After many years we got really tired of waiting 10-12 minutes for a pot of coffee to brew, and started looking around for one that could brew faster. We found reviews for the Bunn Velocity and decided to try it. Success! This baby makes a full 10-cup pot of hot coffee in 3 minutes flat, and partial pots even faster. I like my coffee strong and my hubby likes it medium (weak lol) so we each make ourselves about a half pot and it works out great. (we have extra carafes because this isn't out first Bunn) The flavor is good, not weak - guess this is because it keeps a reservoir of hot water at all times.It's easy to use once you **read the instructions**; just set the carafe on the warmer BEFORE you close the lid where you put the water in. And buy the Bunn brand filters - other brands are mostly not quite tall enough and can overflow. A few other reviewers mention the basket overflowing if the coffee is ground too fine but we've never had any issues with that; we've always just used regular medium roast ground coffee from the grocery.Cleaning any coffee maker can be a chore, but this one's not too labor intensive unless you need to deep clean it for storage. We have naturally soft tap water so it doesn't get much sediment buildup, but I still run the coil thingy through about once a month.This is our 4th one in about 15 years. After 5 years, our last one was still making coffee just fine, but the warmer plate switch quit working. This happened to our first one as well.Overall a great fast-brewing coffee maker. We will definitely keep buying them until Bunn (heaven forbid!) stops making them.

Title: No Aluminum
Review: I bought this based on Dennis Crouse's testing of coffee makers for aluminum. His finding was any Bunn coffee make that had a stainless steel tank was fine as far as aluminum goes. Aluminum is associated with cognitive decline/Alzheimers & I have a genetic tendancy for Alzheimers and have had reactions to aluminum in other products such as deodarants. Another benefit was the great taste of the coffee and the speed of brewing. I also have a burr grinder to grind my coffee beans (when they say "it's all about the grind," it IS all about the grind). When I have company, they almost always comment on how good the coffee tastes. So with all of this I am very pleased with my purchase!

Title: My 2nd one
Review: The 1st one lasted almost 6 year. I liked the quality, and how it brewed within minutes. This is the only kind I will purchase from now on.

Title: Very strange design, but makes good coffee
Review: First of all, this produces excellent, restaurant style coffee. In the end that's really all that matters, and why I'm giving 5 stars.With that said, I find the design strange and the machine is rather fiddley. The machine has an internal water tank that needs takes 15 minutes to warm up before brewing. Unless you're willing to leave it always on, even if you're asleep or away from home, that means it realistically takes 20 min to brew a pot. When you do brew, you pour cold water in the top, close the lid, and the hot water rushes out brewing a pot rather quickly... and sometimes overflowing. It helps to use coarse ground coffee and keep it loose without packing it. I wind up standing near it to open the lid to stop the brewing if it starts to spill over. Supposedly you can contact them and get a different brew head.

Title: Now leaking coffee from bottom of unit
Review: Next month will be 5 years since purchase. LOVE these coffee makers as they produce the best tasting coffee BUT as with the last 3 units, I’ve owned, they begin to leak COFFEE from the bottom after 4 or so years. NOT water, but coffee, meaning the leak happens AFTER the water pours through the coffee down into the carafe. I’ve figured out that’s it is the way the coffee is pouring out of the machine and into the pot. If not positioned correctly, it’ll leak around the edges and show up on the counter beneath the unit. It’s not visible to my eye. IF I’m very careful about directing the flow into the lid by moving the pot around on the heating element, it’ll stop, but it’s becoming more frequent and annoying. I don’t wish to spend money for a new one right now.

Review: Very quick coffee, which I love. Coffee tastes great! Set up is easy. I had a Tim Horton's Bunn years ago and loved it too. Overall, I am very pleased with it but there are a couple of things I like to see improved.I really wish there was a timer for the burner switch. We have been careful about turning it off when the coffee pot is low or empty but the timer would be an added protection for not forgetting to turn it off.Also, I am not too happy about the price of Bunn coffee filters. I prefer the non bleached kind, I didn't see any Bunn non bleached filters although I may have missed them. For this type of coffee pot you need have to have a thinner filter because the water comes through pretty fast and needs to flow through the filter easily. Otherwise it will back up and you will have coffee grounds and hot water overflowing and making a huge mess. This hasn't happened to me yet as I am using the filters that came with coffee pot.Edit. I did try a different brand of non-bleached filters. Didn't work.

Review: We had our bunn Tim hortons pot for years but it kicked the bucket. I knew I needed another one similar to it. And this is it!! It's easy to use, makes a pot of coffee in about 2 minutes and it's HOT! Not sure why it has negative reviews because I couldn't be happier with it.Yes if you like super strong coffee it might shoot some grinds out because the force of the water coming out. 3 heaping tablespoons(kirkland brand) is plenty strong enough for me with ZERO ISSUES. I hope it lasts as long as my Timmie's one did. Buy it, you'll love it. I was sceptical with the ad reviews but I'm glad I did. 10 stars

Review: Wanted a Bunn for a while now and finally bought one. This thing brews fast. 3 minutes for a pot. Problem is with the basket design, it seems too small for the speed it pumps the water through the basket. Would constantly overflow even the Bunn filters. We solved that problem by buying a permanent stainless steel basket and haven't had a problem since. The coffee even tastes a bit better too. Overall pretty happy with it, we just need to figure out what brand of coffee to use now. 🙂

Review: The best cup of drip coffee you can make at home. The person who wrote the setup instructions deserves an award for clarity. Even a dummy like me who struggles to follow instructions can set this machine up easily and error free.Pros: Best drip coffee you can drink at home. It rivals the coffee served by the best restaurants and diners. Fast brewing. A full pot of coffee brews in 2 to 3 minutes.Cons: If you live in an area with soft water, you must call Bunn to obtain a flow restrictor or use a coarser grind of coffee. Note, coarser grind affects the taste. Bunn will ship the flow restrictor to you free of charge but it is basically a 10 cent piece of plastic which should be included in the box. While you wait 2 or 3 days for the flow restrictor to arrive, remove the existing spray nozzle and break off a toothpick in one of the holes. This temporary measure solves the problem but gives your coffee a slight "tooth picky" taste.Still, if you like a morning cup of coffee this machine is worth the price.
