 Incredible coffee September 19, 2007

I've had this coffee maker for almost one month now and I absolutely love it. My parents have owned the same machine for years and it's still going strong. The only difference that I could decipher between the E8 and the E9 is that the E9 is painted silver instead of black. Amazon was selling them for the same price, and silver fit better with the rest of my kitchen accessories, so I opted for this model.
The question of whether or not to buy such an expensive machine came down to a number of factors for me: 1) quality of coffee, 2) ease of use, 3) durability & build quality.
As far as quality of coffee goes, I find what this machine produces to be wonderful. I use dark roast Starbucks beans and I've had no issues. I read that the Starbucks beans can be a little too oily and cause jams; I've had no such issues, at least so far. The manual recommends "airing out" the beans for a few hours before putting them in the machine, so I do this.
Ease of use is wonderful. It even comes with a DVD just in case you find reading too laborious. I opted for the DVD and it taught me everything I needed to know to get this thing up and running, and properly maintained.
Build quality & durability remain to be seen, though I know 3 people who have owned these machines without major issues. The most regular complaint of the Jura-Capresso line, at least in my experience reading reviews, is that the service people are very unfriendly. I wonder if this is a function of the ego of the average purchaser of a $1,000 coffee maker, or if the support people truly are a cantankerous bunch. I'll probably find out one way or the other, but snippiness on the phone isn't enough to deter me, if in fact that is the case. I love this machine too much. RECOMMENDED!
Outstanding Product!! December 3, 2007

We we wondering if we had gone overboard spending about $1,000 on a coffee machine but after 200 cups we are sure we did the right thing. The machine has had a lot of use over the past few weeks with family and friends visiting. The comments have been uniformly outstanding.
The machine is idiot-proof and the result is great.
I figure I will pay for it in 5 years with reduced spending in Starbucks :)

I used to work in a kitchen store that had one of these coffee centers on demo, and that's how I got hooked on the Jura machines. I bought one for home use, and while yes, they are expensive,if you drink as much coffee as I do the per-cup price goes down quickly. Even using bottled water (my local water is 15 grains of hardness) and organic beans, my per-cup cost for espresso drinks is now about 25 cents.
Re the comments on coffee strength: I'd have to say that I don't think other reviewers read the instructions thoroughly. The built-in grinder has adjustable coarseness settings and each cup of coffee can be made in either mild, regular, or strong, which corresponds to how much coffee goes into the shot. I have had no problems with this, although when switching types of coffee (light to dark roast, say) one may have to play around with the settings a bit to get it perfect. That said, there's a lot of settings to play with on this machine.
The frothing/hot water functions have given me no problems, either. The hot water comes out at about 170 F on my machine, so it's not perfect for some types of loose tea but works well for instant oatmeal. :) I would definitely buy another, and my only regret is that I didn't buy one sooner.

Our family had 3 of these Jura Capresso coffee machines so we were familar. I purchased one for my home and another for a grandaughter. I think it makes the very best coffee. With the proper brand of coffee it is never bitter and can be set for all desires. It takes some effort to get used to using it but basicly just keep water and coffer beans in the hopper and empty the grounds daily. Directions for cleaning are different but done easily and almost automatic.

Great coffee... fast, surprisingly quiet for a machine that also grinds beans and so easy to use for everything... the coffee, espresso and steamed and frothed milk. We had a Keurig single serve coffeemaker previously and find that this is much less expensive than the k-cups, the coffee is better and you have a choice of strengths and cup size. The Keurig was very limited. The coffee from the Impressa is even more controlled if you use the ground coffee, then you select your own amount to use per cup... although I have not had a problem with strengths in the strong, robust setting with beans (I like my coffee strong).
I would definitely recommend this machine.
