The trifecta
Get ready to experiment and produce Full Cup coffee and tea with a brew
method unlike any other you have tried.
™
trifecta MB
commercial model trifecta used in specialty barista shops and tea rooms
around the world. The essential flavor oils of coffee beans and tea leaves
are precisely extracted in three distinct phases to produce a deep, amplified
beverage described as Full Cup.
With 25 unique brew settings and the choice to prepare 6 to 12 oz. at a time,
you essentially achieve a personalized micro brew in each small batch. Enjoy
this elevated level of control and repeatability without sacrificing speed and
convenience.
from BUNN utilizes the same Air Infusion™ technology as the
®
Experience
Turbulence Cycle
Turbulence, or a mixing of the grounds or leaves, is created when air is infused into
the Brew Chamber. trifecta’s Turbulence Cycle control adjusts the sequence of
mixing and pausing. This is done to extract rich, deep flavors in coffee or tea. You
can choose from five Turbulence Cycles to unlock unique tasting notes specific to
individual coffee and tea origins and produce noticeable changes in your cup.
Infusion Time
The time water is in contact with coffee or tea determines the amount of
material extracted, a major component affecting flavor. trifecta’s Infusion Time
control offers 5 choices ranging from 40 seconds to 3 minutes to account for
different roasts of coffee beans and varying fragility of tea leaves.
Press Out
trifecta’s unique press out further amplifies the result in the cup when air in
the chamber presses the beverage through a fine-gauge metal screen. This
pressurized filtering intensifies the concentrated oils and aromatics not typically
retained in other brew methods.
With trifecta, whether you love to explore or find yourself repeating the same
setting, you will find yourself saying, “I need a Full Cup!”

USE & CARE TIPS
• Run a water only Brew Cycle on a regular basis to help flush out any residual coffee
or tea particles or oils. This is especially important before or after extended periods of
non-use.
• Distilled, reverse osmosis, and highly purified water are not recommended for brewing
coffee as it lacks the minerals to bring out the natural flavors of coffee. Some common
bottled water may be too purified. If you want to use bottled water, look for words
like “filtered”, “spring water”, “mineral water” or “drinking water”. Avoid using bottled
water with words like “purified”, “distilled” or “mineral free”.
• Do not leave brewed coffee grounds or tea leaves in the Brew Chamber for extended
periods of time (overnight etc.). This makes the Brew Chamber more difficult to clean
and may lead to particles in the Brew Chamber Check Valve.
• BREW CANCEL - A brew can be canceled during the Brew Cycle by pressing the
Brew Button. Although some water may drip out, the pump will immediately stop
forcing water through the Brew Chamber. Always wait for hot liquid to stop dripping
before removing the Brew Chamber.
CAUTION: When a Brew Cycle is canceled, it will stop the Brew Cycle in progress.
Press the Brew Button to press out all contents of the Brew Chamber. Always ensure
there is a cup of adequate capacity or Brew Pitcher to hold the contents of the Brew
Chamber.
• WATER LEVEL MARKINGS - The Water Reservoir has water level markings from 6
to 12 ounces. Minimum brew is 6 ounces and maximum brew is 12 ounces. Remember,
the amount of water you put in the Water Reservoir is the amount that will press out.
If Water Reservoir is in the machine when you pour in water, fill it to the Bottom Line
of the desired ounce marking. If Water Reservoir is at a faucet or other water source
when you put in water, fill it to the Top Line of the desired ounce marking.
ENERGY SAVING FUNCTIONS
• After 6 hours idle, the heater inside the Stainless Steel Hot Water Tank drops to 140°F
to conserve energy. The Brew Button will change from a bright blue to a dim blue
light. To exit energy saver/ sleep mode, press the Brew Button or lift the Latch. The
Brew Button light will flash and the heater will begin heating. It takes about 1 minute to
get back to the optimal brewing temperature of 200°F.
• After 26 hours idle, the heater inside the Stainless Steel Hot Water Tank will turn
off for sleep mode and the Brew Button will glow dimly. To exit energy saver/ sleep
mode, press the Brew Button or lift the Latch. The Brew Button light will flash and the
heater will begin heating. It takes about 2 minutes to get back to the optimal brewing
temperature of 200°F.

center slot of Brew Screen.
DEEP CLEANING
INTERNAL COMPONENTS
Deep clean your brewer at least every 3 months. Mineral deposits may accumulate
due to impurities in the water used to brew. If deposits are not removed, they
can impair the operation of the brewer and reduce product life. The frequency
of cleaning depends on the mineral content of your water (the higher the mineral
content -- the more often you should deep clean).
1. Remove Water Reservoir Lid and fill Water Reservoir with 12 oz. white vinegar
2. Replace Water Reservoir Lid.
3. Push Brew Button to cycle vinegar through the brewer.
4. Run at least 5 Brew Cycles with water only to flush remaining vinegar from the

BREW CHAMBER CHECK VALVE MAINTENANCE
Cleaning the Check Valve is only necessary if slow or incomplete press out occurs or if dripping
occurs before press out.
The Brew Chamber Check Valve may need periodic cleaning because your coffee
or tea is pressed through it after every brew. It can clog causing slow or incomplete
press out, or particles can stick in the valve causing dripping before press out.
STEP 1 - Cleaning Brew Chamber and Run a Brew Cycle with Water Only
Rinse the inside of your Brew Chamber thoroughly to remove any particles. Rinse
the outside of the Brew Chamber, concentrating on the Exit Check Valve area on the
underside of the Brew Chamber. Directing a stream of water into the Check Valve
will help flush particles away. Wipe the walls to remove any coffee oils. Confirm that
the Filter Screen is installed correctly. Run a water only Brew Cycle to flush particles
from the Brew Chamber Check Valve. If still clogged or stuck open, repeat the water
only Brew Cycle 2-3 more times. If symptoms persist go to step 2.
STEP 2 - Remove Brew Screen and Flush the Brew Chamber Check Valve
Using a flat head screw driver rotate the Filter Screen counterclockwise 180 degrees
and remove it from the Brew
Chamber (fig 9-1). Visually inspect
the bottom of the Brew Chamber
and the top of the Check Valve
for particles. Using a straw or
toothpick, depress the center
plunger of the Check Valve and
flush or spray with water (fig 9-2).
When satisfied that the Check
Valve is clean, confirm by filling the
Brew Chamber with clean water and look to see if water drips through the valve. If
no drip, replace the Brew Screen and confirm proper operation by running a water
only brew. If Check Valve still drips after repeated flushes, go to step 3.
STEP 3 - Remove Brew Screen , Remove Brew Chamber Check Valve, and Flush
With Brew Screen removed, turn the Brew Chamber over and place the open end on
a flat surface. Locate the exit opening on the bottom of the Brew Chamber. It has 7
small holes arranged in a circle. Using a toothpick, press
down into the center hole and pop the Check Valve loose
(fig 9-3). It should fall inside the Brew Chamber and onto
the flat surface. Flush or spray the Check Valve with clean
water while depressing the spring loaded center plunger
with a toothpick. When satisfied that it is clean, reinstall
the Check Valve into the Brew Chamber. To reinstall,
drop the Check Valve into the chamber and shake till the
valve is in position above the hole at the bottom of the
Brew Chamber. Confirm that the black o-ring on the
Check Valve is facing upwards as you use finger or like tool to press the valve into the
pocket. Make sure it is pressed in untill flush with the bottom surface. Fill the Brew
Chamber with water to check for drips. If there is no drip re-install the Filter Screen
and confirm proper operation by running a water only Brew Cycle. If Check Valve is
still leaking repeat step 3.
NOTE: Be careful not to damage the Filter Screen when using a tool or cleaning
