High Volume Urn

6 August; Author: Mrs. Coffee

AMW Banquet Brewing System AMW-60E

The American Metal Ware high volume coffee brewing and holding system provides advantages to the user in three functions: brewing, holding transferring/filling operation. Each brewing urn is equipped to brew both sides at one time; 20 gallons of coffee can be brewed within 15 minutes (10 gallons on each side). The basic brewing urn is of the Space Saver type urn, electric or steam heat. It requires connection to a source of 140°F potable hot water with a 3/8” NPT. Each urn uses a pump-type brewing sys tem with a separate sprayover pump and spay arm for each coffee liner. Additional equipment and options include:

  • 2 All stainless steel coffee liner filter screens
  • 2 Model BB810 brew baskets for use with paper filters
  • Low water cutoff system to protect the urn and immersion heater
  • Automatic refill of the water compartment
  • Adjustable bypass on each spray arm
  • Start/stop pushbutton brewing timers; one for each liner
  • Automatic air agitation of the coffee, programmed to operate only when not using the transfer pump system

Two coffee transfer pumps with NSF approved stainless steel braid covered Teflon lined hoses to connect the brewing urn liners to a holding urn. The transfer pumps are mounted in stainless steel housings located on the left and right ends of the coffee brewing urn.

Easy access for service is provided from the front of the housing, which also contains the sprayover pumps.

Sanitary Teflon sealed ball valves connect the transfer system to the coffee brewing liners. When the valves are closed, the liners are isolated from the transfer system and holding urn.

Thus, the automatic coffee brewing urn may be used as a normal coffee urn and 10 gallons can be brewed as an individual batch at any time. Coffee is held at 180°F to 190°F by externally mounted electric heaters underneath the stainless steel bottom. Thermostatic control is provided and the 4 faucets all have a 10” clearance allowing for a rapid refill process because one person can control two faucets at a time.

The electrical requirement for this system is 15KW / 120/208V / 72A per urn / 1Phase. The shipping dimensions are for two skids: skid 1: 42”H x 27”W x 41”D; skid 2: 43”H x 27”W x 54”D. Total shipping weight is 460 shipped in 2 containers.

    Good luck with your interview. 3 way ball valves are highly used in industry. Many simple ball valves we use every day when we turn on the faucet in our homes and businesses.
