Jura Capresso automatic coffee centers – Impressa F8 and Impressa J5

Jura Capresso automatic coffee centers line is likely the most extensive series of automatic coffee makers by the same company, and and the most expensive of all the Jura Capresso coffee machines.

The Impressa F8 automatic coffee center is the newest addition to the Jura Capresso F series and follows the F-Design concept with symmetrical lines and a clean, uncluttered user-friendly layout. The easy to read LED display shows the coffee strength and the cup size while the machine is brewing. The fully programmable F8 gives you all the options to customize your coffee. The coffee brewing illumination adds an extra touch of elegance and the chrome plated heavy duty die-cast coffee spout and a stainless steel grid further enhance performance and function. Jura Capresso beautifully accents the F8 with matte silver, and chrome plated auto-illuminating buttons will make a statement in any kitchen or office. Two step pre-infusion cycle moistens and conditions the ground coffee, providing maximum flavor extraction with perfect crema topping. Jura Capresso also equips the Impressa with integrated professional solid steel conical burr grinder for consistent and aroma-saving grinding. Six settings allow you to adjust the fineness for all kinds of beans – from light to dark roasts. And the Impressa F8 grinds from 5 to a maximum of 16 grams of coffee from mild to extra strong. You can grind up to 30 portions of coffee before refilling. The Dual Frother Plus give you two options – steaming milk for latte, and steaming and frothing milk for cappuccino. The Jura frothXpress system helps you to prepare perfect cappuccinos and lattes cup after cup. It automatically siphons milk from any milk container, combines it with hot steam and delivers hot, frothed milk into your Cappuccino cups. Capresso takes convenience and safety quite seriously. The F8 features 10-digit LED display dialog system with short, plain language instructions available in English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Dutch. The machine can stay on up to 9 hours – just select from Continuous-on or Auto-off from .5 hour to 9 hours in one hour increments. Auto-on sets the F8 on at the programmed time and ready for your first cup. When you are ready to clean, use automatic hot water rinse cycle which cleans and preheats all vital brewing parts. Electronic water level sensor monitors water level, shutting it off when the 64 ounce removable water container is empty. Jura Capresso prices the Impressa F8 at only $1,400 USD – quite a bargain, considering machine capabilities, good looks and the fact that Impressa S7 Avantgarde sells for $2,000.
