Commercial Airpot Filter Coffee Maker | Filter Coffee Machine | 2.2L Capacity | Buffalo CW306

Q: How long does the airpot actually keep coffee hot?

A: The glass-insulated airpot is very efficient, losing less than 2°C of heat per hour. This means coffee will stay at a pleasant serving temperature for at least 2-3 hours.

Q: What size and  type of filter papers does the Buffalo CW306 use?

A: It's designed for standard 90mm filter papers, which are widely available from most catering suppliers.

Q: Can I brew a smaller amount than 2.2 litres?

A: Yes, you can manually add less water and  coffee grounds to brew a smaller batch if needed, though performance is optimised for a full pot.

Q: Is it difficult to switch from manual to auto-fill?

A: The machine is designed for both, but connecting it to the mains water supply for auto-fill should be done by a qualified plumber to ensure it's safe and  secure.

Q: Does this machine have a hotplate to keep the pot warm?

A: No, and  that's a good thing! The insulated airpot keeps coffee hot without a hotplate, which prevents the coffee from 'stewing' and  developing a burnt taste.

Q: How do I know when the machine is brewing or finished?

A: There is a simple 'Brew in Progress' indicator light that lets you know when it's in a cycle and when the coffee is ready to serve.

Q: Is the airpot dispenser easy to use for self-service?

A: Absolutely. It uses a simple push-button or lever mechanism that's intuitive and  hygienic for customers or staff to use themselves.

Q: How heavy is it to move if I'm using it for mobile catering?

A: The unit weighs 9.6kg when empty, so it's manageable for one person to move and  set up for events.
