A coater to coat web includes an extrusion die, which has a die slot, for ejecting coating solution. A valve is disposed downstream from first and second conduits, for selectively feeding coating solution and bubble removing liquid to the extrusion die. A shifting mechanism moves the extrusion die between an offset position and a coating position. A controller causes the shifting mechanism to set the extrusion die in the offset position, feeds the bubble removing liquid to the extrusion die by setting the valve at the first conduit, feeds the coating solution by setting the valve at the second conduit, and causes the shifting mechanism to move the extrusion die to the coating position, to eject the coating solution from the extrusion die in the coating position. A bead of the coating solution is formed, for applying the coated layer to the web.
