BREWING INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THE BUNN ITCB/MIS
HOW HOT?
195 Degrees (+_ 10°)
or Greater!*
WHY IT’S IMPORTANT
It is important that the water be
sufficiently hot to extract the tea
beverage from the tea leaves.
BREWING TEMPERATURE
1. Measure the brew water temperature at
the spray head. The temperature should
be 195 Degrees or higher. A suitable
digital thermometer is available from
Coca-Cola Parts (CCP#121235).
2. If the water is not 195 Degrees (+
_ 10°F):
• The temperature probe and/or
thermostat may not be functioning
properly.
• The temperature probe and boiler may
be coated with lime scale from the
hardness in the water.
3. Call 1-800-241-COKE (2653) for service.
SERVING TEMPERATURE
1. Never use a warm glass.
2. Always use correct Ice Fill.

Brew it Right
It is important to make sure that brewed tea
equipment is operating properly. Calibrating
the brew and dilution flow rates will help to
ensure that the brewed tea concentration
is not too weak or too
strong.
1. Use the control panel to access Level 2
Programming; skip to Calibrate Flow.
• Follow instructions to collect, measure
and adjust the Spray Head Cal. (brew
water) – make sure an empty tea
brewing funnel is in place.
• Repeat for the Dilution Cal. (make-up
water)
• Measure volumes using graduated
pitchers, available from Coca-Cola
Parts:
• 2L pitcher: CCP#116967
• 3L pitcher: CCP#122566
IS THE FUNNEL
INTERIOR CLEAN?
IS THE STRAINER CLEAN?
The flow of brew water/tea through the
funnel must not be slowed because of a
clogged or dirty strainer. The interior of
the funnel should not have any stains or
residues that might add bitter notes to the
tea. Replacement funnel tip & screen kit
(pictured) is available from Coca-Cola Parts,
#121048.

to the ITCB Brew Volume
Calibration Instructions from
BUNN, found on their website

1. Check the date code on the case:
Each case of tea bags is stamped
with a date code indicating the
“Enjoy By” date. The date code is
on a label affixed to the box.
2. Rotate your BIB and tea bag stock.
Always use the oldest tea bags and
liquid sweetener first to maintain
freshness. Remember First to Enjoy
By…First Out!
3. Avoid using tea bags and sweet-
ener that are too old. Tea bags and
sweetener should be used before
“Enjoy By” date. The shelf life for
each product from the date of each
manufacturer is:
Gold Peak Black Tea = 18 months.
MIS sweetener = 120 days.
4. Discard the tea bags from the brew
basket immediately after the brew
cycle is finished. NEVER
RE-USE TEA BAGS.
5. The maximum hold time is 6 (six)
hours. To help ensure the tea you
serve is always fresh, a brew date
sticker is available via the Coke
Catalog for use with your dispenser
urns. Place the sticker on the side of
the urn and simply write in the date
and time the tea was placed in the
urn. Contact your Coca-Cola sales
representative should you want
these stickers.
6. Store tea at room temperature away
from items that could
impact taste (e.g. onions).
7. Keep boxes closed when not
in use to avoid moisture getting into
the box which can cause mold.
First to Enjoy By...First Out!
Why It’s Important
Remember, great taste is why your customer
orders iced tea. Your customers expect
to experience great tasting, fresh brewed
iced tea! Fresh tea bags are essential to
producing quality brewed iced tea.
What to Check
Tea Bags and liquid sweetener produced
by The Coca-Cola Company for your fresh
brewed tea are packaged by the case and by
2.5 BIB. To make certain you always serve
only fresh tea bags and liquid sweetener, pay
attention to these conditions:
