• Reviews around overflow (1.00 of 5)

    BUNN CSB3T Speed Brew Platinum Thermal Coffee Maker, 10-Cup

    • Not this one - no leaks at all, no overflow of the basket or filter
    • This has a design defect that causes water to flow through too fast and the filter is overwhelmed causing overflow, including all over the kitchen counter.
    • We like strong coffee, first pot we ground fine as usual, filter overflowed.
    • For us, this means grinding more coarsely (to med-coarse from med-fine) and grinding for ~3/4 of a pot (to limit the grind overflow in the basket), using water for ~6 cups (to keep the strength high and prevent carafe overflow) and using only Bunn filters
    • Even though we have made more per pot, the overflow of the "Bunn" filter dumped too many grounds into the pot.
    • Water poured so forcefully through the filter and the grounds that it overwhelmed the filter holder and overflowed, spilling coffee and grounds all over the countertop, into the carafe, and stuck to the top of the unit where the water nozzle resides.
    • The white filters slow the water speed and the basket overflows with incoming water.
    • This works much better for me as it's resulted in never having any overflow from the filter basket (or grinds in my cofee!
    • Mist wond r rful coffee pot ever made!!!
