About the 67710E Coffee Urn
General Description
This coffee urn has been engineered to suit the special needs of the prison environment.
This section highlights the characteristics and special features of the product.
The urn is a large capacity, high-speed, coffee brewing and holding unit. The body is constructed of two walls of stainless steel with insulation between. Inside is a large capacity water tank where the brew is heated. Two ten gallon liners fit into that tank. Each liner has its own controls which start and stop the brew process with the push of a button.
A pump draws water from the tank and sprays it over the grounds which are placed above the liners. Faucets on the front of the urn allow the dispense of coffee from each liner and hot water from the tank. A control automatically refills the tank as water is drawn off. A thermostat regulates the temperature by switching electric heating elements inside the tank.

Installation
!
WARNING, ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
INSTALLATION SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY.
Initial Considerations
Unpack the Urn
Remove the cardboard carton from around the urn. Be careful not to scratch the stainless steel with any tools. Unwrap any plastic wrapped items. Open both liner covers and remove materials inside the liners. Remove the control enclosure to expose electric connections.
Select a sight for the urn
The Urn must be placed on a sturdy, leveled table. The table must have a tray to collect liquid from the faucets. To set up initially and adjust later, the installer must have access to the side of the urn where the controls are located. Be sure to allow for space in the sight selection.
Water and Electric
The electric ratings are printed on the nameplate of the urn and on the rough-in drawing.
The urn must be connected to a branch circuit with its own shut-off.
A water line must be run to the connection location. The urn has a 3/8” NPT water inlet as shown on the rough-in drawing. Use 3/8” OD copper tubing for the connection. For especially long runs where pressure drop is likely to be a problem, use larger tubing. The water line should have a shut-off valve near the urn. The water pressure at the urn should be between 30 and 70 psig.
Softened water does not make good coffee. For best results, use cold tap water. Cold water will require a recovery time between brews. You may connect hot water if it is necessary to brew in both liners continuously. Chlorine and lime in water are the biggest problems in the operation of coffee brewers. Be sure the water is free of chlorine which will deteriorate the stainless steel. Filters may be purchased to help control lime. American
Metal Ware’s warranty does not cover water problems.
Place Urn
Position the urn on the table in its operating position. Level the urn front to back and left to right. The height of the feet is adjustable for this purpose.
Complete the Hook Up
Water Hook-Up
The water connection is on the back of the urn’s control enclosure - see figure 1.
Page 7 American Metal Ware 67710E Coffee Urn
It is a 3/8 Female NPT connection.
See the rough-in drawing for details on location. You may wish to install a water line filter to inhibit lime deposits especially if your area has particularly hard water. Lime, which precipitates as the water is heated, will eventually build up inside the urn.
Electric Hook-Up
Before starting any work, be sure the electric line has been turned off. Check the nameplate on the urn for the electric ratings of the urn. A wiring diagram is also provided inside the control enclosure and in this manual. Use the appropriate circuit breaker and cord for the electric service that this urn that requires. Secure the cord to the rear of the control enclosure with the appropriate cord grip bushing. The hole for electric connection is located on the rear of the urn’s control enclosure as shown in figure 1 and on the rough-in drawing.
Wire the cord to the terminal block and the ground connection shown in figure
2. Be sure the connection is secure and no strands touch adjacent wires.

Initial Start Up
Now that the brewer is connected, it can be started and checked.
• Leave the access cover open.
• Turn on the water supply.
• Turn on the electricity to the urn.
The urn will now begin to fill. The heaters should still be off. When the water level is above the heaters, the contactor will close to turn on the heaters.
Check for leaks in the water connection and inside the control enclosure. Assuming all is working correctly, close the control enclosure and allow to finish filling. An indicator light labeled FILLING is lit while the fill valve is open. When the light turns off, the urn is full.
The urn will take approximately 15 minutes to fill.
If cold water is used, the heat-up time is approximately 30 minutes depending on the electric ratings of the urn. An indicator light labeled WATER HOT will turn on when the heaters have shut off.

Operation
Now that the urn has been installed and started up, it is ready for operations. This section describes the brew process from start to finish. Before brewing the first batch of coffee, follow the procedure outlined here to brew an initial batch of water only into each liner. This will rinse the components and set the gaskets and seals.
Load the Coffee
•
•
•
•
•
•
Remove the pad lock which secures the liner cover over the liner into which you want to brew.
Lift the cover to expose the brew basket. Note that the brew basket has a mesh bottom so filter paper is not required.
If there are used grounds in the basket, dispose of them and rinse the basket
Fill the brew basket with the proper amount of ground coffee to brew ten gallons. Pour the coffee directly into the basket - do not use filter paper. See the following section for instructions on the amount and grind of coffee.
Check the liner. The liner should be empty and clean before brewing a batch. If the liner is not empty, it will overflow when brewing.
Place the brew basket over the liner and close the lid. You may padlock the lid at this time to prevent tampering.

• The pump will run for 12 1/2 minutes to spray over the water required for 10 gallons of coffee. The BREW light stays on while the pump is running. As water in the tank is used, it is refilled automatically. The FILL light indicates that the fill valve is open. The light should alternate on and off, even when brewing to both sides. If the FILL light stays on during the brew cycle, see the Adjustment section for instructions on speeding the fill rate.
• Press the STOP switch if you need to stop the brew. The timer will reset when STOP is pressed, so be sure the liner is empty before you press START again.
After the Brew is Finished
When the brew cycle has automatically shut off, you should have ten gallons of coffee. The level will be higher in the liner if you brew with no grounds. If the level is not correct, see the Adjustment section.

Adjustments
!
WARNING, ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
INSTALLATION SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY.
Bypass Adjustment
See figure 4.
Each liner has an independent bypass which is adjustable. The
Bypass valve controls the ratio of water sprayed over the grounds to the water poured directly into the liner -bypassing the grounds.
The urn is shipped from the factory with the bypass open
Figure 4, Bypass Valve
3 1/2 turns. This means approximately 25% of the water bypasses the coffee grounds. See the next section on Brew Techniques about the effect of bypass on coffee.
If you desire more of the water to go through the coffee grounds, close the valve. Open the valve to allow more water to bypass the coffee. Each liner’s valve must be adjusted separately. You may need to adjust the brew timer slightly if you adjust the bypass to maintain the correct volume.
Thermostat Adjustment
See figure 5.
The thermostat controls the temperature of the water in the tank by switching the heater contactor on and off.
A capillary tube monitors temperature near the heaters.
The thermostat is calibrated such that when the shaft is turned all the way on, the temperature is 200 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Adjustment
Screw
To change the water tank temperature:
•
•
•
•
Turn off power to the urn.
Remove the control enclosure access cover.
Locate the thermostat shaft inside the control enclosure.
Turn the shaft full on.
Figure 5, Thermostat
American Metal Ware 67710E Coffee Urn Page 12
To Change the Water Tank Temperature (cont)
•
•
•
•
Insert a miniature, flat screwdriver into the center of the shaft.
Turn the screw slightly to make adjustments: clockwise to increase the temperature, counterclockwise to lower.
Turn the power back on and allow the temperature to equalize. The water hot light turns on when the heaters are off.
Check the water temperature inside the tank. Repeat adjustment if needed.
Timer Adjustment
See figure 6.
Two timers control the brew cycle including the air agitation.
When a start switch is pressed, the timer sends power to the pump through the normally open contact. Also, the brew light is turned on. These stay on for the set amount of time.
After the time is up, the air agitation turns on to stir the coffee.
Timer
Adjust
Figure 6, Brew Timer
The time is set by turning an adjustment potentiometer, see figure 6. This potentiometer is factory set to spray for 12 1/2 minutes.
To Adjust the Timer:
•
•
Turn off power to the urn.
Remove the control enclosure access cover.
•
•
•
Locate the timer you need to adjust.
Find the marked adjustment potentiometer on the front of the timer.
Insert a screwdriver and turn the potentiometer to the approximate time you need.
•
Restart the brewer and measure the time of a brew - start button pressed to sprayover stop.
•
Re-adjust the potentiometer to make fine corrections if needed.
Flow Rate Adjustment
See figure 7.
Two valves - one for each liner - control the flow rate of water from the pump to the sprayover. They have been factory set to provide proper rate for a twelve minute brew time. Only adjust these if the rate has obviously come out of adjustment.
Spray Over Rate
Control
To Adjust the Rate:
•
•
Turn off all power to the urn.
Remove the control enclosure access cover.
•
•
Locate the valve to the liner you want to adjust.
Open the valve slightly for faster sprayover, close for slower sprayover.
•
•
Figure 7, Flow Valve
Turn the urn back on and wait for the water hot light to turn on.
Brew water into the liner for the standard 12 1/2 minutes. Adjust the timer if it does not run the pump for the correct time.
Page 13 American Metal Ware 67710E Coffee Urn
To adjust the rate (cont)
•
•
The level in the liner should be one inch below the line where the liner ring attaches to the liner wall.
Re-adjust until the level is correct.
Fill Rate Adjustment
The fill rate depends on the water line pressure and the opening of the FAST FILL VALVE, see figure 8. If the urn does not refill as fast as it uses water during a brew cycle, you may adjust the fill rate. If you adjust for maximum fill rate and the level still cannot keep up, either the pressure is too low or the fill system may have a clog. See Troubleshooting.
Figure 8, Fill Rate Valve
To Adjust the Fill Rate:
•
Remove the control access cover.
•
•
•
Locate the needle valve labeled, FAST FILL VALVE.
Open the valve a few turns.
Brew water into both liners simultaneously. Watch the
FILLING indicator.
•
•
If the light cycles on and off, the rate is fast enough.
If the FILLING light stays on, the rate is too slow. Re-adjust.
