Overview
The BUNN TB3Q is a commercial iced tea brewer that steeps a 3-gallon batch of real-leaf tea in a low-profile 28.75-inch cabinet rated for up to 26.7 gallons an hour. It's built for restaurants, churches, and other high-volume kitchens that pour tea by the gallon rather than the cup.
- 26.7 gallons per hour brew rate
- 3-gallon batch from real tea leaves
- 28.75-inch compact commercial cabinet
- Built to North American electrical standards
Who it's for
Suits cafes, churches, and restaurants already running a portable tea dispenser and wanting a dedicated brewer to keep up with volume. Not a fit for anyone expecting a countertop unit that pours straight into a matching pitcher out of the box.
Pros and cons
- Brews a 3-gallon batch fast
- Quickbrew mode for shorter cycles
- Low-profile 28.75-inch cabinet fits tight spaces
- SplashGard funnel guards against hot splashes
- Portable server sold separately
- Some units need a factory nut tightened on arrival
- A few buyers found the tea weaker than expected
Performance notes
The TB3Q brews up to 26.7 gallons an hour and steeps a full 3-gallon batch directly from loose tea leaves rather than concentrate. The Quickbrew setting shortens the cycle versus the standard brew mode, and the SplashGard funnel is meant to deflect hot liquid away from your hand while you load the filter basket.
