INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Funnels with wire baskets and
Warranty is void if the Brewer is connected to any voltage other than voltage specified on the data label of the
Brewer.
UNPACKING AND INSPECTION
Carefully unpack the Brewer by cutting the straps and lifting the sleeve carton off the Brewer.
ASSEMBLY AND SET-UP
The Brewer is shipped complete with:
DESCRIPTION BC1,120,240,301 BC2,302
Adjustable legs 4 4
Carriers complete with
Faucets and Covers
1 2
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
base of the rear panel. Dis-engage base panel from rear panel by lifting base panel up and lifting back towards rear
panel.

Note:
1. Neutral (N) and Ground Wires to be 14 AWG minim um.
2. Field wiring must be suitable for 75° C.
3. Use Copper wire only for all power supply connections.
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.

TIMER ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE. (Refer to Figure 1)
Remove the top cover to access the brew timer(s).
To INCREASE output: turn timer knob a small increment CLOCKWISE.
To DECREASE output: turn timer knob a small increment COUNTER-CLOCKWISE. Check
output level in carrier.

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.

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.

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.
