Description
JURA WE8 Overview
The JURA WE8 is a professional super-automatic espresso machine that steps up from JURA’s E8 in capacity and performance. It brews espresso, ristretto and long coffee and steams milk for cappuccino, latte macchiato and flat white, with the flat white included as a pre-programmed option. Standalone milk foam and hot water functions can be programmed to dispense a set amount of frothed milk or water, which is useful for cocoa or tea lattes. The maximum recommended output is 30 drinks per day.
Mirror-finish accents set off the housing. JURA’s Aroma G3 grinder provides quiet, consistent grinding with higher efficiency, and the Pulse Extraction Process fires pulses of water through the grounds for a fuller-bodied espresso and thicker crema. The Fine Foam Frother lets you turn a dial to change milk density, either before brewing starts or while it runs, so you can clearly set a latte macchiato apart from a cappuccino. Drinks are chosen and personalized on a color LCD display using an intuitive dial. A Clearyl Smart filter in the 2.9 L reservoir helps coffee taste good and reduces the need for descaling, and the automated cleaning programs clean the brew group or milk system, or descale the boiler system, once you put in the specified cleaner and start the program.
