Product Certifications: SCA Certified, ETL certified

SCA Certified

Bonavita meets the stringent standards of the SCA, which recognizes home coffee brewers that meet their rigorous technical requirements and qualifications for the SCA Golden Cup. These requirements - which include proper temperature - are based on decades of industry expertise by the Coffee Brewing Center.

As a leader in setting the industry standards for SCA certification of brewers, Bonavita brewers are universally recognized as exemplary home brewers and are used by judges in World Coffee Competitions.

Descaling

We recommend descaling the brewer at least once every 100 uses. If you have hard water, descaling more often is recommended. We recommend using a good quality biodegradable and phosphate-free coffee machine descaler. (Please note: Descaler should not be confused with Cleaner. They serve different purposes.) Descaler is designed to break down mineral buildup inside your brewer to ensure great coffee and consistent functionality. Follow the descaler manufacturer instructions for use. (We do not recommend using vinegar to clean or descale your brewer. Vinegar may not effectively descale your brewer, and can be difficult to rinse thoroughly. Vinegar may also leave behind an odor that can impact the flavor of your coffee.)

If your brewer is steaming more than usual, it is time to descale

Best Coffee Maker

The Enthusiast is one of the best coffee makers I have owed. Makes a great, smooth cup of coffee. I do look forward to my mornings with my coffee now.

Great Coffee

Makes very good coffee. The only (mild) complaint I have about it is that it doesn’t automatically shut off. Seems strange that it requires two switches.

Another Bonavita Homerun

This is our 3rd Bonavita Coffeemaker over several years and the Enthusiast is the best in terms of simplistic features, quality build and excellent brewing capabilities. The separate 'bloom' and 'descale' controls are welcome adds. Highly recommended.

Bonavita Enthusiast

Got the black model and love it. We had a much earlier model and decided to upgrade due to the lid on the old pot wearing out after many years of daily use. This pot measures smaller but miraculously holds the same amount of coffee. The pot is a much better design and the lid is designed to last. It is slick to operate and clean. Happy customer again.

Pretty good

This replaces a Bonavita coffeemaker. Coffee is good. Right size for two. Happy the pot lid is on when brewing. I wish the water reservoir lid was attached.
