achine oMposition Unit Objectives Given a realistic scenario in which the learner has access to the machine’s internal components the learner will understand the composition and functions of the brewer. Given a realistic scenario requiring the learner to access the internal components of the machine the learner will be able to remove the front panel and top cover.
Accessing the Inside of the Brewer The majority of service work done to the AutoPOD™ brewer will require the service technician to access the inside of the unit. The brewer has three removable panels to facilitate access- the main housing, top cover and rear panel.
Dispensing System The AutoPOD™ has two different dispense systems, one for hot water dispense and the other for a dispense during brewing. Hot Water Dispense The hot water dispense system consists of: • 20 ounce hot water tank with element...
During a dispense water enters the inlet valve and is regulated by .175 flow control and enters a booster pump, (Not all AutoPOD™ units have a booster pump; product number specific), which is capable of 50psi. The pump is intended for low water pressure applications. With some heavier/finer grind pods that require more pressure to brew, if the pressure gets below 25-30psi they will brew slower. The pump will boost the incoming water pressure to a high enough level to brew normally. These pumps can create 50+psi, but the pod will determine the actual brewing pres- sure.
Step 3: After brewing is complete, the pod holder rotates further back and down to coffee pod eject position. The coffee pod eject has an option of making a single or double attempt of ejecting the pod in the programming menu. AutoPOD™ Training Manual...

Given a machine displaying an error or warning message, all the necessary tools and safety equip ment, the learner will be able to access the software and use “Service Tools”...
Troubleshooting and Repair The AutoPOD™ brewer features on-board troubleshooting. Since all of the machine’s components are controlled or activated by the control board you can activate and test load components individually from the user interface to test the inputs. This allows you to listen to solenoid valves opening, observing the flow of water, switches operating, sensors operat- ing, motor movement or test to see if a component is receiving voltage using a meter.

(90psi) a factory set (50psi) pressure regulator can be purchased from Bunn-O-Matic. The second variable you need to keep in mind is the product itself. The weight and grind of the product is also a variable in determining the pressure. Even though you have moderate high incoming pressure of 70psi, you could still activate the pressure switch because of the water not being able to push through quick enough causing back pressure to build up above the coffee and back to the pressure switch.
Step 9: Carefully clamp hose A. Select START. Step 10: When brew tank blowout mode is finished, select NEXT. Step 11: Carefully clamp the Hot Water hose B. Select START.
