The water inlet valve may be stuck open from mineral deposits. You can get rebuild kits for the older ones or just replace the valve?

SOURCE: coffeemaker

The Bunn coffee machine has an internal tank used for holding approx three potfulls of water at just below brewing temperature. When you add water for a potful, the thermostat senses cold water and starts the brew heater. The water level inside the tank comes up and goes through the sprayhead. This "surge" of water, that you call drips is normal. The hot water stratifies to the top of the tank, just like an electric water tank in a house. The internal pot heater kicks in and boils the water already in the tank, raising the water level in the siphon pipe to the sprayhead until the reservoir under the add water opening is empty.

It sound like you are either missing the sprayhead or the temperature isn't hot enough. Check first to see if the sprayhead is there. It fits under the brew basket and looks like a little shower head - it's round and has usually five or six little holes in it. If it is missing your coffee will be weak due to the water not being spread across all of the grounds evenly.
The other thing to check is the temperature. Depending upon where you live the water should be between 185F - 200F. If the water is below that temperature the coffee may look like tea.

Yes Bunn will send you a repair kit free of charge. Just apply a bead of silicon below the rubber gasket before you tighten it down and it will solve the problem.

SOURCE: adjusting the temperature

Our Bunn VPR was delivering luke warm coffee. The problem was lime scale buildup on the heating element. I recommend using a cleaner such as Brew Rite or a vinegar solution. If it still does not heat properly, unplug and remove the heating element for cleaning. This corrected our problem.

Bunn Coffee maker Model CWTF-15 Water is continuing to flow after pot is made. The machine must be turned off to get it to stop.

Normally that would be an easy fix if the water just continued to flow. You just replace the water inlet valve and they can stick open or partially open. But you say if you power off, the flow stops. That sounds like the control board is supplying residual power to it. Control boards are expensive so I would call for service. Or you can try some of the fixes here.

I have a bunn cwtf twin,I put new ready lights on both side work for about a week and the they wont light up. and the side the the faucet only brews warm coffee. but the other side does find. HELP

The green ready lights do not last that long. We never replace them on units we service. They are cheaply made. Each side of this coffee maker has its own thermostat. Check to make sure the thermostat is on all the way. If it is check the voltage on the warm side. Make sure it is in the 208v area. This warm problem is 85% the thermostat not set right and or needs replacing.

My Bunn CWTF-DV-3Tisleaking water from the top right corner of my machine,and has just started leaking at the base of where the bottom burner is. Could you please help,as we have no technicians were we...

open the top. there is a trough drain that gets limed up. using a phillips head screwdriver, push through and twist, thereby removing the lime and ensuring proper flow. if water can't get through, it may overflow over the sides of the trough. also look behind the trough to the top of the tank and see if there is any water damage around the seals. if there is, replace the seals

I need to ship a 3 burner BUNN CWTF 15-3. How do I drain the water out?

You can take the lid off and unscrew the nut that holds the water tray. Then take a 3/8 hose to siphon the water out of the machine.

Model cwtf-mv water does not turn off , press start to make coffee and water goes in but does not stop

First remove the front panel and there will be instructions fro reprogramming the brewer. If you have done this and it still does not work, then there is a problem with the control board.

What size breaker do I need to install a CWTF - Twin 4/2? I have 208 volts available. Wattage is 6850.

A 50 amp breaker would be best. To find proper amperage its Watts divided by volts, then multiplied by 1.25 for draw.
