The 9 Best Jura Coffee Machines

For a home that wants both strong espresso and milk drinks, the Jura E8 is the safe choice. It makes 17 drinks, each from a single button, and a bright color screen with side keys keeps the menu simple. The roomy water tank and bean hopper mean fewer refills on busy mornings. Its grinder works faster and finer than the older E models, per Jura. The downside is cost, and milk sits out warm unless you buy the separate cooler.

Lattes and cappuccinos at home, without paying flagship money, are what the Jura E6 is about. It brews 11 drinks and draws milk through a steel-wrapped tube from the glass jug or a carton. It has the same big tank and hopper as Jura's pricier E models, and a small color screen and dial run it. Two independent Jura guides call it the best value in the range. The catch is one style of foam and a small screen.

The Jura E4 skips milk altogether and spends its budget on espresso, coffee and hot water. Home Coffee Expert picks it as Jura's best choice for black coffee, thanks to a generous dose of grounds in each shot. A knob and a few lit symbols run it, so there's no menu to learn, and the large hopper holds days of beans. If you want a cappuccino now and then, you'll need a separate frother, since it has no milk spout.

Built for tight counters, the Jura ENA 8 keeps a slim body and stands its water tank on the side like a cut-glass vase. A small color touchscreen offers 15 drinks, milk ones included, and it whips up fine, silky foam. The trade-off for the compact shape is capacity. The tank and bean hopper are small, so a household that drinks several cups a day will refill both often. It suits one or two coffee drinkers best.

Households split between decaf and regular get a clean answer in the Jura J8 twin. It has two bean hoppers and two grinders, so nobody has to empty out beans to switch. A wide touch panel lists 31 drinks, and a second milk setting makes a sweeter, airier foam for latte fans. The drawbacks are its bulk and its high price, and each hopper holds fewer beans than a single large one would.

Espresso and black coffee drinkers who want Swiss bean-to-cup brewing at an entry price should look at the Jura ENA 4. It's a small, plain machine with four drinks on lit buttons and a ribbed, see-through water tank on its side. There's no milk system at all. The real catch is size: the tank and bean hopper are small, so a busy morning can mean refilling both before guests get a second cup.

New in 2025, the Jura C9 brings a color display and 17 drinks, milk ones included, to a narrow body. It sits between Jura's compact and mainstream lines, with a mid-size tank and hopper that most couples won't need to top up daily. An optional cooler can keep milk cold beside it. It's still new, so there's little owner history and no long-term picture of reliability yet.

Iced coffee fans should look at the Jura Z10, which can brew espresso-style drinks cold, straight from fresh beans, besides the usual hot menu. Its grinder resets itself for each drink you pick, and a touchscreen offers about 40 choices. The large water tank glows softly from the side. Reviewers give both its espresso and its milk drinks top marks. It's a big, costly machine that needs a wide, deep spot on the counter.

The Jura S8 suits people who want a large touchscreen and a long drink menu, 27 options in all, with fine milk foam on top. It keeps the big tank and hopper of Jura's mainstream line and adds a sleek chrome finish. Expert guides find its coffee no better than Jura's mid-priced machines, so the extra money mostly buys the screen and the style. Stock of this finish runs thin at times.
