A: It features a twin brew head system, allowing simultaneous or alternating brewing into multiple airpots for uninterrupted coffee service during peak hours.

Q: What type of containers does it use?
A: It brews directly into airpots (typically 1.9L to 3L, sold separately), which keep coffee hot and fresh without warming plates and allow easy transport to serving stations.

Q: Does it have a hot water faucet?
A: Yes. It includes a separate hot water faucet, useful for tea, soups, oatmeal, and other hot beverages.

Q: What brewing technologies does it use?
A: It uses BrewLOGIC flow control to maintain consistent pot levels, plus pre-infusion, pulse brew, and digital temperature control for stable extraction quality even under variable water conditions.

Q: Does it require plumbing and electrical installation?
A: Yes. It is a hardwired, plumbed commercial brewer, typically running on 120/240V, 60Hz single-phase power with high wattage (around 6100W).

Q: What is the Bunn AXIOM Twin APS best used for?
A: It is best suited for high-traffic foodservice operations such as hotels, large cafés, breakfast buffets, and catering setups that need continuous airpot coffee service with minimal downtime between brews.

Maintenance Tips

• Daily sprayhead cleaning (critical): Remove and clean both sprayheads to keep all jets open. Blocked holes cause uneven extraction, weak coffee, and inconsistent airpot volumes.
• Deliming routine (1–3 months): Use a deliming spring in the spray tube to remove mineral scale. Scale buildup reduces flow rate and disrupts BrewLOGIC automatic compensation, leading to inaccurate fills.
• Clean brew funnels daily: Wash thoroughly to remove coffee oils that cause bitterness and slow drainage, especially important in high-volume airpot service.
• Wipe control panel & funnel area daily: Keep LCD, sensors, and funnel detection zones clean so BrewWIZARD programming and diagnostics function correctly.
• Flush hot water faucet weekly: Prevent mineral buildup in the independent faucet used for tea, soup, or cleaning tasks.
• Monitor brew temperature stability: Scale inside the tank reduces heating efficiency, affecting extraction consistency across both brew heads.
• Maintain water pressure (20–90 PSI): Stable inlet pressure is required for consistent 15 GPH output and proper automatic adjustment.
• Descale internal tank periodically: Prevents slow recovery time and ensures continuous back-to-back brewing during peak hours.
