The RLX with Glass Decanter is the classic RLX variant for restaurants and cafés with active coffee consumption. The glass carafe on the warming plate is a simple and reliable solution that keeps coffee at a constant temperature for quick serving.
RLX with glass decanter features
Brewed coffee flows into the glass carafe, which sits on a warming plate, keeping the coffee warm. The glass carafe allows visual monitoring of the coffee quantity — staff can brew a new batch in time before the carafe becomes empty.
This variant is optimal for locations with high and steady coffee consumption — coffee on the warming plate is kept warm and ready for quick serving.
Most suitable usage scenarios
Restaurants and cafés with active service, where staff serve coffee to guests, are the main use case for this model. The glass carafe is easily visible to both staff and bartenders.
Canteens and buffets, where coffee is served hot and consumed quickly, use this model due to its simple operation and maintenance.
How to choose between RLX variants
The RLX with Glass Decanter is optimal for active consumption and fast service. If coffee needs to be kept warm longer or transported, the RLX with Container or RLX with Thermos are more suitable options. The BHS team can help you choose.

Restaurants with active service, where staff serve coffee to guests at the table or at the buffet, use the RLX with Glass Decanter due to its simple operation and quick availability.
