Industrial Coffee Machines

How to drain water from a commercial Coffee Machine?
Imagine draining water from a one gallon milk jug, while keeping the jug totally upright without tipping it.
What would be the best way? I’ve already tried an industrial water pump…(which didn’t work at all for some reason)
Then I tried a Black and decker drill-mounted pump that did work, but then broke after 3 uses.
I’m looking towards some kind of gravity actuated device… what do you think???
An average commercial coffee maker holds about 300 ounces of water, and should not be tipped over in any way.
PS. Taking the tank out and emptying it is A LOT of work and would not be a viable option.
Thanks!
Don’t know what type of machine you have so I could be wrong in what I say.
I had to drain out coffee makers for a camp I used to work at in NH. On the drip models, where you put a pot under a spout and brew coffee by the pot, I was able to remove the top plate and see the water tank. Our model had a removable top and so it was easy to open it and remove the water.
Our newer models were larger units where a large pot of coffee was brewed. These were easy since all I did was drain the holding tank, then tip the unit forward a bit until all the water drained out.
The one brewer that took the longest was one that I could not tip. After draining the tank as much as possible, I was able to hook up a small air tank to the water input line. After removing the in line filter, I open the air valve slowly and let the air push the remianing coffee out of the spouts. The main problem here is that too much air just went over the remaining coffee but did not push it out. Thus the slower I allowwed the air to go in, the better it worked. I used the same technique with blowing out water lines at the end of the season.
