I've had a Capresso-Jura S9 at home for three years and more than 3,000 shots of espresso. Flawless performance. I've never had it in for repair/service. I use Illy beans. They make great coffee and are not as oily as other espresso beans and they won't clog the grinder or foul the brewgroup.

I have a cafe Americano every morning. Espresso/cappucino on weekends. Latte for my wife.

What a great machine they make.

The E8 is plastic and it doesn't have an adjustable tempreture control for the water. But all else underneath is the same. Great machine. And for $599, it's even better.

Where are you finding an E8 for $599?

The soon to be wife and I are doing the wedding registry bit, and she knows I'm a coffee guy (although I normally french press). Believe it or not, I don't own a coffee maker. Any recommendations for great one in the "Someone might actually buy this off the registry" range?

If you google Jura E8, you'll find a lot of places selling it for the same price.

That is a screaming deal. Can't miss with that machine. It has the same grinder, brewgroup and thermoblock heater as the $2,400 model!

I just take a spoonful of instant, wash it down with a Pepsi - does the trick.

I bought one last month for the office. My wife and I fell in love with it while we were testing it before I took it into the office. We finally broke down and bought one for ourselves.

Part of me says... $600 for a Coffee maker?!?

The other part says....mmmmmmmmmmm

WHAT? Its an AUTOMATIC!!! You have an AUTOMATIC...geez...any dolt or pansy can use an AUTOMATIC...Real men use the Manual Machines made of Steel and Copper and not PLASTIC...and for $1800 are U outa your mind...What does that Veteran Marine Old Man of yours have to say about that...or havn't U told him how much U paid for your little wonder. If your gona spend that kind of money for christs sake go and buy a REAL MACHINE that a Marine would be proud to use...like this machine right here..... A Salvatore made in right here in America, by a Craftsmans hand. This is the Machine that is used on the Aircraft Carrier Nimitz...a real machine for real men...
