In addition to its 18-bar pump, the unit features two, independent, stainless-steel-lined ThermoBlock heating systems for coffee preparation and steam production with no wait time in between, plus four beverage buttons that can be individually programmed for cup size, strength, and temperature--simply turn and push the rotary switch to make the selection. Use the "a la carte" button for customizing the cup size and strength just before brewing, or choose from three hot-water temperature settings for Cafe Americano or a variety of teas including green, herb, and fruit teas.
Other useful details include a graphic display that indicates the brewing or maintenance process, an illuminated coffee-brewing area, a stainless-steel cup-warming platform, a height-adjustable coffee spout, and electronic sensors that indicate when more coffee beans need to be added, as well as a large 96-ounce water tank, a Clearyl water-care system that eliminates the need for decalcification, automatic cleaning cycles, and three Energy Saving modes. Accessories include a Clearyl water filter, cleaning tablets, a measuring scoop, a water-hardness indicator strip, and a DVD with detailed tips on brewing, frothing methods, and cleaning. UL listed for household use, the 1250-watt coffee-and-espresso center measures 15 by 13-1/2 by 14-3/4 inches and carries a limited warranty for two years or 6,000 cups, whichever comes first.

This review is from: Jura 13423 Impressa S9 One Touch Automatic Coffee-and-Espresso Center, Platinum (Kitchen)
We've had the S9 for over 5 years now. The customer service is pretty good when you have a maintenance question. Makes the most of a good coffee bean by ensuring you get a hot espresso with a lot of real crema. Use strong non-oily beans for the best coffee in the world. Brands I have used include Intelligentsia, Lutz, Kimbo, Lavazza, and other good espresso beans. What I really like about this machine is you can make other coffee (in addition to the beans you have loaded in the machine). It has a one button function to override the beans you already have loaded and lets you add grounds to a compartment at the front of the machine. For example, I have Dunkin Donuts decaf grounds on hand for folks that want a decaf coffee. I also have decaf espresso grounds.
Keep up with the maintenance on this machine and it will take care of you. It's pricey, so just keep up with the maintenance to get your money's worth. The machine will let you know when it's time to change the water filter, clean using the tablets, and de-calcify. After having a coffee from this machine, we never go to Starbucks or any other coffee shop for coffee. There stuff will not compete. Maybe over 5 years, we broke even on this machine by the $$ we saved by not spending 4-5 bucks on double lattes. Good luck with your choice.

Lives Up To The Hype!,

This review is from: Jura 13423 Impressa S9 One Touch Automatic Coffee-and-Espresso Center, Platinum (Kitchen)
Prior to purchasing the Impressa S9 I owned a Capresso C1000 for 12 years. The C1000 was a fully automatic coffee and espresso machine with a manual frothing system. I have to admit that I was very much a doubter that the FrothXpress system would actually work. However after owning and using the Impressa S9 for the past four months, I can say that it has lived up to the hype and then some. The FrothXpress system performs as advertised and makes perfect froth every time. The S9 also makes an excellent quality shot of espresso. The one touch buttons and adjustments are extremely easy to use and customize. The extended siphoning hose allows for siphoning milk directly from the carton, eliminating the need for a separate milk container. I can say that I have been pleasantly surprised by this machine and it was worth every penny. Jura-Capresso 13423 Impressa S9 One Touch Automatic Coffee-and-Espresso Center, Platinum

This review is from: Jura 13423 Impressa S9 One Touch Automatic Coffee-and-Espresso Center, Platinum (Kitchen)
I have used capresso coffee makers for 10 years, starting with the basis C1000. The quality of the coffee is outstanding. I have had the impressa S9 for about 7 years. My problem is the repair record. My husband and I average 6 cups of coffee per day for the two of us. I follow the maintenance instructions scrupulously, i.e. change the Claris filter and use the cleaning tablet on schedule.(I might add that the filters cost $16 and need to be changed monthly. I also use filtered water. However, on a yearly basis there is a function failure of one kind or another and I need to send it to the factory in Closter, New Jersey. The flat rate for the Impressa is $275. The warranty on the service is for about 60 days. I have been unable to find a local repair service that will repair it. The last minor function failure was about 5 months ago and it was returned to my home within 4 days after I mailed it. This tells me the repair is limited to the particular problem and there is not a general inspection for further potential problems. Now, 5 months later< I am getting a "Malfunction 4" message and I am unable to make coffee. The response of the company? You guessed it- the fee will be another $275. I decided to give up on my beloved Impressa and find another product.
