I've never heard it called that here!
It was someone at the counter at a sandwich shop in the Queen Street
Railway Station in Glasgow if it makes any difference. I described the
Bunn-o-matic coffee maker and he was familiar with them and said to just
ask for "drip coffee" in the future.
And it worked. I asked for "drip coffee" from then on and got something
that tasted like I'm familiar with and could drink.
Before that, someone had recommended asking for "an Americano", which is
the most GAWD-AWFUL tasting crap, worse than Starbucks.
Funny thing is, after the first night I stayed in "bed 'n breakfast"
type lodgings, and every one of them had a genuine Bunn-o-matic
commercial drip coffee maker in the dining room for that breakfast.
