JURA C8 Piano Black (EA)

I think the JURA C8 is a compact machine that you can do a lot with. Because it is not as big as most fully automatic machines, it fits well on my counter. I set cappuccinos and latte macchiatos exactly to my own taste. This way I can easily make coffee the way I like it best. Unfortunately, there is no milk cup included.

Compact and complete I take the machine out of the box and it immediately stands out that it is not too big. Getting the machine ready for use is very easy. The water reservoir does not protrude. This makes it easy to place the machine in the corner of the kitchen. I put the plug in the socket and now the coffee can start making.

Many setting options I can choose from 6 different coffee specialities on the display. I navigate through the different options with the buttons. When I choose a coffee speciality, I set it to my own taste. I find this very useful, because I like an espresso a bit stronger than a cappuccino. I save these settings so that every morning I can make a cup of coffee the way I like it best with just one push of a button.

Tasty cups of coffee Despite its small size, the machine makes coffee of the quality that I expect from JURA. The P.E.P brewing method ensures that the coffee flow time is exactly right. The C8 also has a Professional Aroma Grinder, which grinds the beans in the right way. I taste this when I make an espresso, which gets an extra intense flavor. My roommate also wants a cup of coffee, so I make 2 cups at the same time. That is ideal, because it saves time. Then it is time for a cappuccino. I put the milk hose in the carton of milk, because the JURA milk jug is not included as standard. The machine makes very soft and lumpy microfoam, which makes the cappuccino very tasty.

Easy to maintain What I like about this machine is that I do not descale it thanks to the included water filter. Of course, I do have to replace it in time. If I forget this, I see that the display clearly takes me through the instructions. Also for cleaning the milk system it is clearly indicated what the intention is.
