SPRAYHEAD BASICS
The small but mighty sprayhead is the unheralded work horse of any coffee and tea equipment. The average beverage drinker probably is unaware of the importance of this component and its function in a quality cup.
The sprayhead controls the flow rate going into the funnel and uses its hole design and pattern to regulate how water contacts the product in the funnel. This interaction can either enhance or distract from final flavor.
While this brochure explores various sprayhead design factors, several other elements of commercial beverage preparation should also be considered to achieve the desired flavor profile:
• Water quality • Product grind and throw weight • Water temperature • Brewer recipe programming
BUNN TECHNOLOGY GIVES YOU CONTROL
BUNN offers a line of precision brewing and serving systems that are designed to produce optimum flavor. Look for equipment featuring Digital Brewer Control® that gives the operator these programmable features to control sprayhead action and create a variety of recipes. The machine matters!
Pre-infusion: Control over the wetting process The sprayhead dispenses hot water and then turns off, allowing the wetting phase to complete. Pre- infusion ensures that material in the funnel will be ready for the extraction phase when the sprayhead turns back on.
Pulse brew: Control over the extraction phase The sprayhead dispenses hot water then goes through a cycle of turning off and back on. Pulse brew enables you to adjust the flavor of your coffee or tea by extending brew times.
Variable Bypass: Control over brew strength Bypassing a percentage of the water around the grounds allows you to create unique flavors.
Extraction Systems: Control over water distribution From traditional BUNN sprayhead designs to the BUNN 21-hole sprayhead, you can choose the
spray pattern that yields the ideal flavor for your taste profile.
