Jura E8 Coffee Machine
The Jura E8 is, like all automatic coffee machines, a bean to cup fresh milk machine. The E8 is designed for small to medium size office of up to 25+ people. E8 machines have been installed in larger offices but that often requires a multiple machine approach. The drink options available form the E8 are identical to the larger units as well as featuring a dual coffee and one touch cappuccino and latte option.

Jura E8 Review

JURA E8 PROS
Milk Froth Quality and Latte Option – The froth on all Jura Automatic machines from mid 2014 utilises the new fine foam frothing technology which means that the milk froth for cappuccinos and lattes comes out thick and creamy. This is still one feature which separates Jura machines from most other entry level automatic machines on the market today. The E8 also allows for a one touch latte where the steamed milk and milk froth can be automatically separated. The E8 features a new frothing system which eliminates almost all milk bubbles
Coffee and Espresso Extraction – The famous Jura grinder and brewing unit technology means the extraction on all “black coffee” drinks is still a level ahead other bean to cup options. The need for constant cleaning of coffee machines makes many of them somewhat of a nuisance. The E8 also features pulse extraction which gets all the flavour out of the ground coffee
No Removable Brewing Unit – Jura is still the only brand which doesn’t have a removable brewing unit which means everything can still be cleaned at the touch of a button
One Touch Functionality – The E8 is a fully one touch machine making it perfect for first time users
JURA E8 CONS
Chrome Finish – The E8 features a chrome flashy finish which is rather polarising. People either love it or they hate it
Separate Stations – The E8 has one frothing and coffee extraction station for milk based coffee drinks and a centre station for espresso based drinks. This can be quite confusing for first time users
Bean Hopper –Although the standard sized bean hopper which can hold 285g is the biggest hopper of all Jura machines (except for on the Giga and XJ range), there is no attachment option available to increase the size like there is on the XS9
