Start Up Procedures (cont.)
Brewer Selector Switch
The brewer selector switch is a 2 position slide switch located on the main controller. It is used to select the left or
right side timers for programming. In the left position, the left brew station is being programmed; in the right position,
the right brew station is being programmed. To switch from side to side, slide switch to the desired position.
Pushbutton Keypad
The pushbuttons serve 4 functions. These functions are to:
1) select the appropriate timer,
2) adjust the stored timing value,
3) instruct the controller to store a displayed value
4) reset the controller after an error has been registered.
The pushbutton to the right on the controller is used for 1, 3 and 4. The pushbutton to the left on the controller is
used to increase the displayed value. The middle pushbutton is used to decrease the displayed value.
To select the appropriate timer once the correct brew side has been selected, press the Select pushbutton until the
correct brew size LED is lit.
To adjust the stored timing value
,
press the left pushbutton to increase the displayed value or press the middle
pushbutton to decrease the displayed value.
To store a displayed value press the Select button once.
To reset the controller after an error has been registered, press the right pushbutton and hold for 10 seconds.
Temperature Adjustment Knob
Temperature adjustment is accomplished by rotating the small knob to the left of the brewer selector switch.
Clockwise rotation will increase the temperature setpoint while counter-clockwise rotation will decrease the setpoint.
Operation
1) Place an empty, warm shuttle under the sprayhead. Turn on the warmer.
2) If the shuttle is not warm, allow the warmer to heat the shuttle. A short brew of water will speed this.
A cold shuttle will significantly lower the temperature of the brewed coffee.
3) Remove the filter basket and line with a filter paper. Paper size is 13" x 5" for the BB1.5, (standard brew
basket), and 14" x 5" for the larger, BB2.0.
4) Fill the hoppers with whole coffee beans only. Your coffee supplier can help you select the right amount of
coffee and grind. Coffee brewing experts recommend 6.5 - 8 oz. of coffee per gallon of water for most applica-
tions. A full shuttle is 1.4 gal.
5) Slide the brew basket into the brewer making sure the spout lines up with the top of the shuttle or airpot.
6) Select the batch size through the touchpads. Check the Water Hot light. If it is lit, press the Start switch on the
touchpad. If the Water Hot light is not lit, wait and press Start when it illuminates.
7) Brew time is about 4 minutes for a full shuttle, less for smaller batches. After the brew, allow the coffee to drip
for 1 - 2 minutes.
CAUTION: HOT LIQUID HAZARD
WATER USED FOR BREWING COFFEE IS VERY HOT. USE CAUTION WHEN BREWING,
POURING OR TRANSPORTING COFFEE. NEVER ATTEMPT TO MOVE THE BREWER
WITHOUT FIRST DRAINING THE WATER TANK. ACCIDENTAL SPILLS MAY RESULT IN
SEVERE BURNS.
