sample filter pack
Remove carriers from Brewer, one has the four (4) legs packed inside. Install legs by tilting Brewer on it's back and
screwing the legs into the threaded leg support openings on bottom.
WATER HOOK UP
The National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) requires the following for the NSF approved installation:
1. A quick disconnect water connection or enough extra coiled tubing (at least 2x the depth of the unit) so that the
Brewer can be moved for cleaning underneath.
2. An approved flow -back prevention device such as a double check valve to be installed between Brewer and water
supply.
WATER CONNECTION
The Brewer comes equipped with a 3/8 compression water inlet fitting located in the back. Use a 3/8 diameter copper
tubing to connect the Brewer to a cold water supply, water pressur e should be 20 psi min. to 80 psi max. An external
shut-off valve and a water filtering system with a charcoal filter is highly recommended.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
A terminal block inside the base compartment is provided for electrical connections. Two (2) 3/l6" diameter
openings for field conduit connections are provided in the bottom and the back of the base.
To access the Terminal Block, loosen the 2 screws on the side of the base cover and remove the 1 lower screw at the

INITIAL PRIMING - Filling of Tank
The BC Brewers are shipped with the Thermostat in the OFF position. Do not turn Thermostat to the ON position until
the Brewer has been fully primed.
1. Turn water supply on and check for leaks at the water inlet connections. Tighten compression
fitting if necessary.
2. Turn on power to the Brewer. The Brewer will automatically start filling. After 6 minutes the filling cycle will stop
and the thermostat should be turned clockwise to the full ON position. Allow
2
approximately 20 minutes for the brewer to reach full brewing temperature (197°-203°). When the
GREEN READY LIGHT comes ON the brewer is ready to brew the next batch of coffee.
NOTE: Before proceed ing further, make sure the sample filter pack has been removed from the
funnel.
CHECKING BREW CYCLE OUTPUTS.
The BC-Series brewers are factory preset to deliver the proper amount of brewing water for the 12 cup,
24 cup and 36 cup brew cycles. Nevertheless, it is a good practice to check the output levels prior to
brewing the first batch of coffee.
BC1 and BC2: Full 36 cups (3 decanters) per brew cycle with a 20% by-pass.
BC120 and BC 240: Selectively 12 cups (1 decanter) or 24 cups (2 decanters) per brew cycle. No by-pass.
BC301 and BC302: Selectively 12, 24 and 36 cups per brew cycle with a 20% by-pass for the 36 cup
cycle only.
TO START A BREW CYCLE:
Turn Warmer Switch to the ON position. The Warmer Switches also double as CYCLE STOP switches.
With Funnel and Carrier in place activate GREEN BREW switch.
On BC120, BC240, BC301 and BC302 brewers first activate brew switches marked 12 cups and then
check output. Do the same with the 24 cup brew switch and the 36 cup brew switch for the BC301 and
BC302 units.
NOTE: 12 cups equal 1 full decanter.
If necessary adjust the timer(s) to increase or decrease output levels. See Timer adjustment procedure.

Insert brew funnel back into brewer and position empty carriers under brew funnels. Wi th Warmer
Switches on (lit), depress Green Brew Switches. Total brew time will vary according to cups selected. After funnel
stops dripping, remove and empty funnels.
Warning: Remove Brew funnel ONLY after it has stopped dripping.
BY-PASS Flow Adjustments (See figure 2)
Depending on the model number, the BC Brewers have been factory set to brew 12, 24 and/or 36 cups of coffee, with
the BY -PASS adjusted for a 20% BY-PASS flow of brewing water for the 36 cup, brew output only. Since water
hardness, the brand of coffee, and the length of brew time are important factors in final drink taste, it may be necessary
to adjust the percentage of BY -PASS. In general, the more ground coffee used for each brew, the higher the
percentage of BY -PASS. Proceed as follows to adjust BY-PASS.
1. Place empty carrier without cover under brew funnel.
2. Pull brew funnel out 3 inches, exposing BY -PASS outlet behind funnel.
3. Activate warmer/cycle stop switch. Switch will be lit.
4. Hold measuring cup under BY -PASS outlet and activate Green Brew Switch. After 15 seconds, push warmer/cycle
stop switch to stop cycle.
5. Measure ounces of water in cup and ounces of water in carrier. Divide ounces in cup by total volume dispensed
(add ounces in cup and carrier) to get the BY -PASS ratio.
4
6. To get more BY -PASS, turn slotted adjustment screw in spray-head adjuster (Item 49 in parts list) counter-
Left (K245A) Right (K244A) (K253A)
clockwise. Turning adjuster screw clockwise will decrease the BY-PASS flow.
SPRAY-HEAD ADJUSTER
BC 2, BC302 BC1, BC301
FIGURE 2
The BC310 and BC302 units do not use a BY -PASS for 12 and 24 cup brewing. The BY-PASS valve is activated only
when the 36 cup cycle is selected. The BC210 and BC240 models only brew 12 or 24 cups and therefore do not use a BYPASS.
THERMOSTAT ADJUSTMENT (See Figure 3)
The BC Brewers are factory set to deliver hot brewing water at 200° F (96° C) when the thermostat knob
is turned on to the full ON position.
THERMOSTAT
BC1, BC2, BC240, BC120
BC301, BC302
Figure 3
The water temperature, at the spray head, should be between 195° F-2030 F with the thermostat knob at its maximum
clockwise position. If adjustment is necessary, proceed as follows:
1. To RAISE water temperature, turn temperature control knob to its maximum clockwise position. Remove the knob and
locate slotted adjustment screw inside hollow thermostat shaft. Using a narrow -bladed screwdriver, engage slotted
adjustment screw and turn it 1/4 turn counter-clockwise. The thermostat will cut in and the Green ready light will go
off. When Green ready light comes on after a few minutes, measure temperature and repeat if necessary.

2. To LOWER water temperature, simply turn knob one notch counter-clockwise to next lower
number on dial.
HINT: To measure water temperature accurately, remove the spray-head for a solid water stream.
SOLID STATE WATER LEVEL CONTROL AND PROBE
WATER LEVEL CONTROL OPERATION
Components involved:
1. Solid state water level control board Part #L398A
2. Water inlet valve Pan # L397A
3. Water level probe Part #K213A
4. Hi-level float switch Part #L380A
Under normal conditions and operation, the water level in the lank should not drop more than 1/2" from the
probe. If it does, the tank is not being re-filled fast enough. Check the water line and water filter, they may need
cleaning or replacing.
PROBLEM: NO WATER IS GOING TO THE TANK AT ALL!
WATER INLET VALVE TEST
Turn power off. If the water level rises inside the heating tank, the water inlet valve is leaking. Disconnect wires
from the water inlet valve coil and connect a 2 wire lamp cord to the terminals. Plug it into a 115V outlet. If
water flows in and stops when you pull it out, the valve is working fine. Repeat this test a few times. The
problem may be in the probe or water level board.
If the water does not flow in when the cord is plugged into an electrical outlet, the solenoid coil may be burned,
opened or the valve may have been an obstruction preventing the water from flowing in. Clean or replace it.
Hl-LEVEL FLOAT SWITCH
For BC2 and BC302 units with hinged Hi-level Float Switches, (See figure 4a)
Remove tank cover and check position of Hi-Level float switch inside tank. The hinged part of the float switch
must face up as shown in Figure 4a. The BC1, BC120, BC240, and BC302 units have ball type level detectors
as illustrated in Figure 4b; the ball resting on the retaining clip is shown.
6
HI-LEVEL FLOAT SWITCH
The float switch acts as a guardian for the solid state level control and its probe. If they malfunction and cause the
water inside the tank to rise, the float switch will prevent flooding by terminating the power to the solid state control
board and the water inlet valve.
PROBE TEST (Figure 5)
If lack of water conditions remain the same, check the probe as follows:
Turn on the power to the brewer. Check inside the heating tank to make sure the water is not touching
the probe. Pull wire and terminal out of the probe rod.
If water still does not flow after the wire is disconnected from the probe, the problem may be in the solid
state water level board.
If water starts flowing into the tank, the probe may be grounded
due to excessive liming. Check with Ohm meter. Clean or replace probe. PROBE
Check the board as follows:
A) Make sure there is power input to the board at the terminals 2 & 3, see Figure 6. Your voltmeter should read 115
volts. It should read the same at terminals 1 & 3. This is the output power to electrify the coil of the solenoid
valve to open it. The lack of voltage at terminals 2 & 4 will indicate that the water level board is not working
properly.
B) Make sure all wire connections to the board are tight.
C) The grounding plate at the top, in the back of the board, should be securely grounded. The board will not work,
or will work erratically, if it is not grounded properly. If after this, the board is still failing to open the water
inlet valve, then replace it.

PROBLEM; WATER WILL NOT "STOP" FLOWING INTO THE HEATING TANK
Follow the same procedure as above but in reverse order. Check the Water Level Probe, Solenoid and level controls.
WATER INLET VALVE TEST (FIGURE 7)
Turn off all power to the brewer. Observe the water level inside the heating tank. If it rises, the water inlet valve is
leaking. Rebuild using Valve kit #99371 or replace inlet valve.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
DRAINING OF WATER TANK:
Fast draining of tank is possible by Drain Hose which is located behind the front panel and held in place by a clamp to
the side wall.
When draining of tank is required, always disconnect power supply and turn thermostat counterclockwise to the OFF
position.
CLEANING;
1. Wipe all exterior surfaces of the unit with a soft, damp cloth using warm water and mild detergent. WARNING:
Before attempting to clean the Warmer Deck, make sure the Warmer switches are "OFF" and the Warmer Deck has
cooled down to room temperature.
2. Clean all interior surfaces, in contact with the substance dispensed, thoroughly. Caked-on residue may have to be
soaked before removal. On metal or glass surfaces, stiff bristle brushes may be used.
3. Rinse the cleaned unit thoroughly with warm water and let dry.
SANITIZING:
All food dispensing units should be sanitized periodically. However, all parts or units to be sanitized
must be cleaned first.
To prepare a sanitizing solution - ADD 2 OUNCES OF LIQUID CLOROX BLEACH (5.25%
CONCENTRATION) TO 1 GALLON OF ROOM TEMPERATURE WATER (70-90°F).
Soak all parts for a minimum of 3 minutes in the sanitizing solution.
NOTE: Always start with an unopened bottle of Clorox bleach since the solution from an opened bottle has a shorter
life span.
CARE OF STAINLESS STEEL:
Stainless steel surfaces that come in contact with food substances must be cleaned every day. Many food products
contain acid, alkalies, salt and other substances that corrode the stai nless steel. In order to prevent the corrosion of the
material, proper cleaning and sanitizing must be performed.
When cleaning the stainless steel, only neutral pH cleansers are to be used. Highly acidic or alkaline cleansing agents
and chlorinating sanitizing solutions cause corrosion.
DELIMING OF TANK;
Minerals in water also cause corrosion if they are allowed to accumulate. Therefore, the interior walls should be
cleaned frequently in order to remove mineral deposits and prevent corrosion from occurring.
TO PREVENT CORROSION DAMAGE;
1. Carrier liners should be cleaned daily.
2. Use only neutral pH cleansers such as dish washing detergents to clean the unit. Do not use cleansers containing
alkalies, acids or harsh abrasives.
3. Use mild abrasive nylon or brass brushes for removing coffee deposits. Do not use steel wool, wire brushes or other
abrasive tools that will scratch the stainless steel surface.
4. Use recommended sanitizing solutions.
5. Let the unit dry naturally after sanitizing. Do not wipe them . Do not use the unit until completely dry.
WARNING: Do not immerse Carrier into water or use in dishwasher.
