The Bravilor Bonamat B5 HW is a high-output bulk filter coffee brewer designed for venues that need to serve large quantities of filter coffee reliably and consistently throughout the day. The machine brews directly into two insulated VHG urns, each holding five litres, and includes a dedicated hot water tap for tea and other hot beverage service from the same station. It connects to a three-phase electrical supply and is plumbed directly to mains water, making it a fixed installation rather than a portable countertop unit.

In a high-footfall service environment the B5 HW is built to keep pace with demand. Staff can rotate filled urns into service whilst the machine begins the next brew cycle, maintaining throughput during peak periods without queuing at the machine. The insulated urns hold temperature without a separate heating plate, which helps preserve coffee quality during extended service. The urns are designed to be carried to buffet and self-service points, making this setup practical for layouts where coffee is served away from the brew station.

From an operational standpoint, the setup offers several practical advantages:

  • Continuous brew-and-rotate cycle keeps coffee available throughout service without interruption
  • Insulated VHG urns maintain holding temperature without a heating element beneath the urn
  • Integrated hot water tap consolidates tea and coffee service to a single station
  • Direct mains plumbing removes the need for manual refilling between brew cycles
  • Three-phase connection supports the consistent output required for high-volume brewing

Installation requires both a three-phase hardwired electrical connection and a plumbed mains water supply with an isolation valve. This is not a plug-in unit, and commissioning should be carried out by a qualified electrician and plumber. Allow adequate worktop depth and clearance for the machine and for urn removal during service. At 33kg, the positioning should be planned carefully before installation — it is not a unit that is easily relocated once in place.

The B5 HW is well suited to hotel breakfast and leisure catering operations, busy staff restaurants, contract catering sites, and event or conference venues with a consistent demand for large-batch filter coffee. For sites with more modest throughput requirements, a lower-output filter brewer is likely to be more appropriate and more cost-effective to run. For operations with significantly higher demands, a larger-capacity bulk brew solution may be worth considering.

If you're working out whether the B5 HW fits your service volumes and installation setup, our team is happy to talk it through with you before you go ahead.

Frequently asked questions

What installation work is required before the B5 HW can be used?

The machine requires a three-phase hardwired electrical connection and a plumbed mains cold water supply with an isolation valve. Neither the electrical nor the plumbing work should be attempted without a qualified tradesperson, and both should be confirmed as viable before the unit is ordered. It is also worth planning the physical position carefully at this stage, as at 33kg the machine is not easily moved once installed.

How much coffee can the B5 HW realistically serve during a busy breakfast or event period?

With two five-litre urns in rotation — one in service while the machine is filling the next — the setup can sustain a continuous supply of filter coffee throughout an extended service period without staff needing to queue at the machine or manually refill water. The actual throughput will depend on your brew cycle time and how quickly urns are consumed, so it is worth discussing your specific service volumes with us to confirm the machine is sized correctly for your operation.

Is the B5 HW suitable for a smaller café or restaurant, or is it designed specifically for high-volume sites?

The B5 HW is most cost-effective in venues with a regular, high-volume demand for filter coffee — hotel breakfast operations, staff canteens, conference centres, and similar environments. For a smaller café or restaurant with moderate throughput, the output capacity and three-phase installation requirement may represent more than is needed, and a smaller filter brewer is likely to be a better fit. If you are unsure which capacity suits your operation, our team can help you work through the options.
