#1 Jura GIGA X7 Professional
Absolutely remarkable, the Jura GIGA X7 revolutionizes the approach to coffee. This coffee machine has massive capacities, actively monitors itself, and gives you accurate data about everything that is happening with it. It creates 39 specialties, out of which 12 are barista ones, and, with its outstanding capacities, it belongs at a coffee shop or a business conference. There is not a thing in the drinks that the GIGA X7 doesn’t let you adjust or program and it even makes two milk drinks at the same time. This is the finest Jura child, no doubt. You can read our full Jura GIGA X7 review here.
Key Features:
- Beans à la carte
- Programmable coffee strength, water amount, brewing temperature

The ‘beans à la carte’ option allows you to automatically combine the beans from the separate hoppers to make a coffee
Cons
There’s no such thing
#2 Jura GIGA 6
Every coffee specialty is an at-home marvel with the two-in-one Jura GIGA 6; two-in-one because of the two aroma preservation hoppers and the two pumps which make the GIGA 6 be like two machines in one. This in-house coffee connoisseur can make a fine transition from espresso doppio to double and single shots of cortado or latte macchiato and finely program each parameter of the drinks’ ingredients. Glorious flat whites or one-touch lungos are available à la carte, through blending the beans from the two hoppers or using the beans from one of the hoppers only; with the electronically-adjustable ceramic grinders of the GIGA 6, each choice is a mastery, even if it’s a pot of coffee.
You’re also welcomed to check our review of the Jura GIGA 5, a model very similar to the GIGA 6, but slightly more affordable.
Key Features:
- 28 products, including a pot of coffee and portions of milk and milk foam
- One-touch lungo
- 3mm aluminum front

A wide selection of 28 products, double or single, milk or espresso-based, and teas
Fine Jura technologies in combination with the beans à la carte option
Fantastic programmability, from brewing temperature to coffee strength, and back to the temperature of the milk and the milk foam
Cons
Expensive
#3 Jura GIGA W3 Professional
Ideal for your office or show room, the Jura GIGA W3 Profession coffee machine brings out the coffee artist in each one of your employees or guests. We believe that companies and households that leave a little room for hedonism are successful and thriving, and coffee is a good way to introduce it. With the GIGA W3, its large 35.3-ounce aroma preservation bean hopper, and the fast electronically-adjustable grinders, the soulfulness of your workplace is guaranteed. The beans à la carte option and the total of 43 one-touch specialties, 12 of which are barista ones, prove that the W3 is elegant in every aspect.
Key Features:
- 43 specialties (12 barista specialties)

Pros
Incredible personalization of the drinks, from picking their names to adjusting their parameters
An intelligent design, with active hopper and drip tray monitoring and a maintenance status
A fully-automatic and energy efficient machine with programmable on and off time
Cons
The combination of beans from two bean hoppers in increments of 25% is not an option with this machine
#4 Jura Z6
The Z6 is an ultra-stylish home-use Jura machine that can be either a Black Diamond or an Aluminum joy for the eye. The machine offers a stupendous commodity in automated coffee-making with an 81-ounce blue-lit tank and a big 10-ounce hopper. It is a generous super-automatic that effortlessly makes 22 one-touch specialties with an improved fluid system for both longer and quick, chic gourmet coffees. Drinks that have a barista twist are common on the Z6, with names like Barista coffee, Lungo Barista, and caffè Barista on the list. Quick, consistent, and wireless on demand, the Z6 is the best and most programmable at-home barista.
Key Features:

Large capacities and barista specialties on a home-use machine
Design improvements for a high-end performance
Cons
No programmable auto on
We encourage you to also check out the Jura Z8, a coffee machine with an astounding resemblance to the Jura Z6, but with two pumps, thermoblocks, and fluid systems for an even better performance. Espresso doppio is not an option with this machine, but the boost in functionality is way too good of an excuse to buy it.
#5 Jura WE8
The WE8 is a super-automatic you start considering as soon as you open a very small coffee shop or when you like to promote a good at-work atmosphere by introducing an extremely capable coffee machine. A 101-ounce tank and a 17-ounce hopper make the WE8 excellent for brewing up to 30 espressos, ristrettos, flat whites, cappuccinos and the rest of the 12 specialties. Every specialty is a one-touch programmable fanciness reflecting the mastery of the P.E.P., Fine Foam, and the I.P.B.A.S. Jura technologies. In spite of its massive capacities, the WE8 is easy to maintain thanks to its integrated cleaning programs — perfect for an uninterrupted workflow at your workplace.
Key Features:
- Cappuccino system that is height-adjustable
- 12 specialties, among which short coffees, milk delights, and a pot of coffee
- 6-level Aroma G3 grinder
- Jura technologies and J.O.E. compatibility
- Makes 30 coffees per day
Pros
Designed in favor of a good work atmosphere or in-home coffee enjoyment
Massive capacities of the hopper, tank, and the grounds compartment
Reliable Jura technologies and maximum programmability for the most personalized coffee experience of all your employees
Cons
Doesn’t make two milk-based drinks at the same time
#6 Jura J90
Silver is a brilliant color with the Jura J90— a color that perfectly flows over the entire impeccably-designed housing of this super-automatic. In this silver world, the large and intuitive TFT display and the Rotary Switch bring you the magic of 11 specialties programmable for coffee strength, brewing temperature, and hot water temperature. The 5 one-touch coffees make the J90 a lovely choice if you find pleasure in the simplicity of sophisticated choice at the touch of a button.
Key Features:
- Double and single ristretto, espresso, and coffee
- Cappuccino system for lattes and cappuccinos
- Aroma+ grinder
- All spouts are height-adjustable
- Premium Jura technologies for coffee blooming and extraction and fine milk texturing
Pros
Fabulous design and simplistic menu, both of which supported by fine Jura technologies that raise the value of the machine’s build quality and performance
Intuitive TFT display and Rotary Switch for an easy way into the world of the delicious drinks
Easy maintenance with the milk and coffee system maintained through the integrated cleaning programs
Cons
There is an imbalance between the number of coffees the machine offers (5) and the machine’s price
A similar model to this machine, but a fully black visual delight, is the Jura J80 — a machine worth checking out if black is your definition of elegance.
If you simply won’t let go of the design of the Jura J90, but want to double the coffee strength programmability and add flat white to the super-automated recipes, the Jura J6 could be your personal barista.
#7 Jura E8
The smart and barely noticeable cut on fineness of its design lets the Jura E8 come at a lower price from the previous machines we reviewed and still offer you 12 recipes. From the more sophisticated drinks, you have the macchiato, latte macchiato, espresso doppio, and the popular Flat white, while espresso, ristretto, and cappuccino are the standard Jura drinks that you’ll find on the menu. The beauty of Jura technologies that make every beverage heavenly is still present and so is the easy maintenance with the programs for cleaning, rinsing, and descaling of the machine, making the Jura E8 the bestselling budget choice by Jura.
Key Features:
- 12 programmable drinks and an automated hot water function for green tea
- Extraction Process and Intelligent Pre-Brew Aroma System
- Intelligent Water System and Fine Foam technology
- Programmable coffee strength, water amount, and programmable brewing and hot water temperature
- Separate height-adjustable spout for the milk-based drinks
Pros
A well-thought-out machine that gives you 15 products at a budget
You don’t need to move your cup during the preparation of milk-based drinks because of the separate spout for these drinks
Trusted by many people
Cons
Every parameter of the coffee ingredients is adjustable, except for the volume and temperature of the milk and the froth
If not a fan of drinks like latte macchiato and flat white, you could choose the Jura E6 instead and lower the buying costs even more.
If you, on the other hand, liked the design of the E6, but you’d like the machine to have a separate cappuccino system on the side, you could take a look at the Jura Impressa Z9.
#8 Jura Impressa C65
The Impressa C65 is a solid Jura model that is generous enough to offer strength, temperature, and volume control of each drink apart from introducing both coffee and milk-based drinks to your coffee routines. The machine is operated with the famous Jura Rotary Switch and a tiny graphic display available in 11 languages that you can go through as you turn the switch. It is a beautiful one-touch super-automatic with one thermoblock heating system and perks like a hot water function for teas and an Energy Saving Mode. If you buy this machine, you’ll have a powerful coffee ally for the best of lattes and cappuccinos with the Fine Foam technology and the machine’s 15-Bar pump.
Key Features:
- Coffee, espresso
- Three intensities (3, 5, and 5+)
- 15-Bar pump
- Operates with a graphic display and a Rotary Switch
- Programmable brewing temperature, coffee volume, and coffee strength with on-the-fly changes
Pros
Top-notch programmability, with preset settings and adjustments even as you’re making the coffee
A conical grinder that has an improved angle for better consistency and aroma preservation
An outstanding convenience with a menu consisted of both milk-based and coffee-only drinks, 11 language settings, and a one-touch function
Cons
A bit of a dated design
The Impressa C65 has its roots in the fabulous Impressa C60, but it outperforms it with the improved grinder. Still, the C60 is a very worthy model if you prefer the aesthetics behind its all-black housing.
In case you’d like to see a cleaner design with the cappuccino spout moved next to the coffee spouts, you might want to take a look at the Jura D6 that has an Aroma G3 grinder and relies on the Jura Pulse Extraction Process.
#9 Jura Impressa A9
With a small footprint but big features, the Jura Impressa A9 brings you 12 products at the touch of a button. Cappuccino doppio and latte macchiato doppio are the new kids in the block to turn up the intensity of your favorite milky beverages. The beauty of technology is accented with the convenient TFT color display that guides you through the settings of the A9, from the programmable coffee parameters to the integrated cleaning, rinsing, and descaling programs. A joy to use and a quiet proponent of the best brewing technologies by Jura, the A9 is a compact coffee mogul.
Key Features:
- Single or double coffee-based drinks
- Makes cappuccino doppio and latte macchiato doppio
- Programmable strength and volume of the drinks
- Fine Foam technology
- Color touch display
- Aroma+ grinder
Pros
Perfect for doppio drinks lovers
The milk-based drinks are boosted in flavor with the Fine Foam technology
A compact machine with a TFT display
Cons
The machine’s small footprint makes the tank, drip tray, and the grounds container small as well and there’s, therefore, a need for more frequent refills and waste emptying
#10 Jura A1
The Jura A1 is very similar to, but better than the ENA Micro 1 machine that we’ll review later. It is minuscule, but it radiates elegance from each one of its angles, making short coffees a classy phenomenon. The machine features Jura’s P.E.P. technology and the improved Aroma G3 grinder to make flavorful coffee a guaranteed result. After the well-angled grinder creates the aromatic grounds, the A1 blooms them and forces water through them at short intervals, extracting a drink with crema from the delicious oils in the beans. Yummy!
Key Features:
- Makes espresso, ristretto, and coffee with adjustable coffee strength and volume
- Symbol display
- Aroma G3 grinder
- Pulse Extraction Process and Intelligent Pre-Brew Aroma System
- Zero-Energy Switch and programmable turn off
Pros
A machine fitted for newbies with a sophisticated vision for the taste of short coffees
Astoundingly simple to use with its self-explanatory symbol display
A state-of-the-art design that will give you butterflies
Cons
Longer coffees are not really an option here
#11 Jura ENA Micro 1
Ultra-compact, the Jura ENA Micro 1 brings you the smartest harmony between appealing dimensions, powerful performance, and brilliance of design. The ENA line of Jura machines features the smallest ever machines by Jura. That said, the Micro 1 stands sturdy at 9 x 12.7 x 17.5 inches to offer you a cup of coffee, ristretto, or espresso anytime. This is the simplest choice of drinks on a Jura machine, and, with its incomparably simple symbol display and multi-level grinder, the Micro 1 is the most efficient highway to short coffees.
Key Features:
- One-cup
- Micro brewing unit
- Three programmable cup sizes
- Two coffee strength levels
- Aroma+ grinder
- Symbol interface
Pros
A unique design that makes the machine look like it’s pushing forward
Perfect for lovers of short coffee drinks
Unbelievably small — the best and most affordable space-efficient choice
Cons
Doesn’t make milk-based drinks
In case the one-cup feature of the Jura ENA Micro 1 is a deal-breaker for you, the ENA Micro 5 and its revolutionary rotating double spout system might work for you. This machine performs like the Micro 1, but, because its spouts system rotates to extract the coffee in one or two cups, it can make you two espressos, ristrettos, and coffees at the same time.
#12 Jura ENA Micro 90
The Jura ENA Micro 90 is similar to the ENA Micro 1 and the ENA Micro 5, but it makes single beverages with milk. It has a height-adjustable spout for a good cup clearance for both long milky delights and espressos. The machine makes a fantastic use of Jura’s pre-infusion, Fine Foam technology, and the Pulse Extraction Process that forces the hot water through the coffee grounds at short intervals. All in all, the Micro 90 is the smallest way to programmable lattes.
Key Features:
- Makes espresso, latte macchiato, coffee, and cappuccino, but it serves milk foam as a separate product as well
- 10 coffee strength levels
- Adjustable milk and coffee volume
- Two temperature settings
- Hot water spout
- Aroma G3 grinder
Pros
All drinks available at a touch of a button for the easiest of service
Incredible programmability
The most popular milk-based coffees available with the most compact machine by Jura
Cons
With its tank in the back, the Micro 90 needs to be placed somewhere where you’ll have easy access to the tank
We invite you to also check out the Jura ENA Micro 9, a machine almost identical to the Micro 90, but with a slightly different design of the spout system and with only two variable strength levels, in case you like to keep things perfectly simple.
FAQ
1. Why would I choose Jura before other super-automatics?
Jura coffee machines are one of the most refined super-automatics. They give you coffee like from a phenomenal café thanks to the many patented and exclusive Jura technologies. These technologies don’t miss perfecting the coffee at every step of the coffee-making process. Apart from that, these machines look more sophisticated than other coffee machines in the market.
2. Could you briefly explain the Jura technologies?
Of course we can!
Aroma G3 grinders — the best Jura grinders with an improved angle that maximizes the grinding consistency and the preservation of aroma.
Intelligent Pre-Brew Aroma System — double pre-infusion of the coffee to degas it and wet it so that it can be better extracted with the P.E.P. technology.
Pulse Extraction Process (P.E.P.) — water gets forced through the coffee grounds at optimal pressure for extraction of coffees and espressos, guaranteeing the best in cup aroma.
Fine Foam technology — creates the perfectly textured foam for every coffee, keeping the textures varying from drink to drink to preserve the authenticity of each recipe and the characteristics of the milk within it.
Intelligent Water System — the machine recognizes the presence of the water filter in its reservoir and prompts you when it’s time to change it. The filter keeps the water in the tank clean and fresh, while minimizing at the same time the need to descale your machine.
Things to Consider When Buying a Jura Coffee Machine
Price — we kindly offer you many interesting Jura machines in our article, all of which come at different prices. You can take a glance at them all to not miss an affordable machine with all the features that you need.

We encourage you to, first, pay attention to your coffee preferences when choosing the best Jura machine for you, and, second, understand how the machine makes your favorite coffees with its integrated Jura technologies.
