If you’re looking for café-quality coffee at the push of a button, minimal effort, and a machine that looks just as good as it performs, a Jura super-automatic is one of the best investments you can make. From grinding fresh beans to one-touch cappuccinos, milk foam perfection, and smart water filtration, these machines deliver luxury, convenience, and consistency. Choose the model that suits your volume and drink preferences, pair it with the right water filter, and enjoy years of reliable service—with warranties on new (2 yrs) and refurbished (1 yr) models at Upscale Coffee.

The benefits at a glance

• Fully integrated workflow: The machine grinds beans, tamps, brews espresso and/or coffee, froths milk — all automatically. No separate grinder, separate frother, or manual steps.
  
• Consistency: Every cup is calibrated for temperature, dose, tamping pressure, and milk quality. That means you get café-style results day after day.
  
• Convenience: One-touch (or touchscreen) drink selection from espresso, latte, cappuccino, flat white, Americano, iced coffee (on certain models). Great for homes, offices, executive suites.
  
• Smart features: Jura uses advanced grinders (AromaG3, P.R.G.), extraction technology (Pulse Extraction Process, Cold Extraction), and intuitive interfaces.
  
• High-end build & design: Swiss engineering, premium finishes (diamond black, piano white, aluminium white…) — looks as good as it performs.
  
• Water & maintenance support: With the right filter cartridges (see accessories below) you’ll minimise scaling, get cleaner water, and extend machine life.
  
• Resale and value: Since these machines are built for longevity and the Jura brand is well-respected, value holds up. Especially if you buy from a trusted dealer like Upscale Coffee that offers new and refurbished with warranty.

Here’s a step-by-step walkthrough to get your Jura up and running like a pro.

Step 1: Choose location

• Flat, stable surface, near water & power.
  
• Avoid direct sunlight or next to heat sources.
  
• Give clearance around machine for ventilation & ease of use.
  

Step 2: Unbox

• Remove packaging and protective films.
  
• Check contents: machine, water tank, drip tray, instruction manual, power cord, initial coffee sample (if included).
  

Step 3: Install water filter (strongly recommended)

• Insert the correct filter cartridge (see Accessories section). E.g., CLEARYL Smart Plus Filter Cartridge for optimal water quality.
  
• Follow machine prompts to activate filter mode.
  

Step 4: Fill water tank & beans

• Use fresh cold water (preferably filtered) in the tank.
  
• Add whole beans to the bean hopper (choose a medium-roast espresso profile).
  
• If you have the optional Water Direct Connection Kit you may connect directly to your water line for continuous supply.
  

Step 5: Initial rinse & calibration

• Machine often performs a rinse cycle on first use; let it complete.
  
• Run one or two plain coffees (without milk) to flush the system and stabilise temperature.
  

Step 6: Set drink preferences

• Use the touchscreen or dial to select your default espresso volume, milk foam consistency, temperature, etc.
  
• Create a custom profile if supported.
  

Step 7: Make your first cappuccino/latte

• Use a tall glass/cup under the spout.
  
• Choose milk-based drink; let the machine grind, brew, froth automatically.
  
• Enjoy! You’re in coffee luxury.
  

Step 8: Maintenance routine

• Daily: empty drip tray, rinse milk system if applicable.
  
• Weekly: cleaning tablets cycle, milk system cleaner.
  
• When prompted: descale or replace filter. Using the correct filter cartridge reduces descaling frequency dramatically.
