Fetco CBS-51H-15 Handle Operated Coffee Brewer – 1.5G, 16x6 Metal Brew Basket (C51046)

The Fetco CBS-51H-15 (C51046) is a high-performance, handle-operated coffee brewer designed for demanding commercial environments such as restaurants, banquet halls, and catering operations. This brewer allows you to brew directly into a 1.5-gallon TPD LUXUS thermal dispenser (sold separately), making it easy to transport and set up remote beverage stations. Its compact 12-inch width and robust stainless steel construction ensure a durable, space-saving solution for any service area.

Engineered for efficiency and reliability, the CBS-51H-15 features a dual brew basket lock incorporated into the start switch for enhanced safety and operational consistency. The intermittent spray-over system ensures even saturation and optimal extraction, while the gravity-fed dispense tube system is designed to resist lime buildup, reducing maintenance and ensuring long-term dependability. With a powerful dual 3.0 kW heating element and three-phase operation, this brewer can produce up to 10.5–15 gallons of coffee per hour, making it ideal for high-volume service periods.

User-friendly operation is at the forefront of the CBS-51H-15’s design, with a simple handle mechanism for starting and stopping the brew cycle and a manual hot water faucet for expanded beverage options. The brewer is compatible with standard 16x6 metal brew baskets and 15" x 5.5" filters, and is certified by NSF and UL for commercial use. Backed by Fetco’s comprehensive warranty, the CBS-51H-15 is a smart investment for businesses seeking efficiency, safety, and consistent coffee service.
