Regular Brewer Maintenance: Keep It Pristine

First things first, ensure your Bruvi brewer consistently delivers the best tasting coffee by keeping it clean. We recommend a weekly handwashing of the waste bin and drip tray, as well as the water tank. Don’t forget to wipe down the external surface of your brewer to keep it looking its best. Regularly descale the machine to prevent mineral buildup (your brewer will notify you when it’s time to descale when the Americano and 1 oz icons blink). A well-maintained brewer is a happy brewer!

Some Like it Hot: Every Degree Matters

Did you know that Bruvi brewers feature an on-demand, energy-efficient heating system with precision temperature control? That means that Bruvi heats in five seconds and enables repeat brewing without waiting, along with rapid adjustment for cold brew. There’s also a high altitude setting for elevated perfection. And of course, with the hot water button, you’ve got instant hot water. Here’s a favorite trick: heat your cup with a few ounces of hot water before brewing. A warmer cup with keep your coffee hot longer. And of course, if you prefer a hotter brew, use the Hotter button on your Bruvi to increase a few degrees.

Brew Setting Exploration: Customize Your Cup

Beyond the Hotter option, dive into the other brew settings of your Bruvi touchscreen. Adjusting the brew strength or cup size can dramatically influence the flavor profile. Play with these settings to craft the perfect cup tailored to your preferences. Or try the low acid button if you’re sensitive to the acidity in coffee.  

Iced Coffee Brilliance: Brew Over Ice

Love iced coffee? Brew your favorite Bruvi coffee over ice for a refreshing and bold experience. Adjusting the brew strength for iced coffee can prevent dilution and ensure a robust flavor, even as the ice melts. Or try an iced espresso or Americano for another taste experience. You can drink it black or add a splash of milk for a delicious cool treat. Another brewing tip for safety: never brew over ice in a glass cup. Instead, use a ceramic or other material cup or brew into a glass cup but add the ice after brewing.

Mix It Up: Try Different Varieties and Roast Levels

Some coffee lovers want the comfort of a favorite coffee every day. Others like to change things up. With Bruvi variety is part of the fun. Plus, a great way to get the most of Bruvi’s advanced brewing technology, is to experiment with different beverages and different B-Pod varieties.  Maybe you’ve found a favorite medium roast coffee?
