Do I understand this correctly:
All of the Juras have a brew group that delivers up to 16gms. So does that mean that if I choose the highest strength coffee (Strongest setting plus the extra second you get from the 'aroma' setting), I'll get about 8 grams on a single and 16gms on a double, regardless of how much water I choose.
Also, in looking at the diferent choices in the $1000, it pretty confusing. The E8 seems to do about everything the F9 does, without the fancy display.
Any words of wisdom on that?
Does Whole Latte Love or the manufacturer provide a warranty on the Jura Capresso E8?
Today while I was making a coffee in my wonderful Gaggia super-automatic, a nasty "squealing" noise occurred, which I had never heard before. I turned the machine off, pulled out the brew group, cleaned it and everything else I could see. The noise did more or less go away, though there was still a bit of a remnant. I have performed descaling once, when I was instructed to do so, and I try to clean the brew group every so often.
I have had a Magic Deluxe for 4 years. It has been troublefree, although the no-bean indicator never worked....
Now, after descaling, I find that the expressed coffee is wet and it seems to take longer for a cup to make. What could be the problem?
I just purchased the Capresso C1000 and I absolutely love it. Straight forward and easy to use. My only problem is that after foaming milk I have a hard time getting the machine to reset to coffee making. I follow the instructions in the book and whether or not the machine resets appears to be entirely random. Often it takes me 7 or 8 tries before the reset "takes". Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
My Gaggia semi-automatic espresso machine has a very "violent" start. The first second of the brew process produces a strong vibration and noise - then it eases off and brews as expected. Is this normal?
Whole Latte Love Staff You are correct, the Capresso machines will give you the option of adjustable dosing between 7-16 grams. The versatility is endless: you can pull 1 or 2 shots, 1 or 2 double shots, 2 double shots or any other combination up to 16 oz of coffee at one time.
In addition to the display screens, the main difference between the E8 and F9 is that the E8 does not offer temperature control or the energy saving mode. The two machines also have very different aesthetics. The F9 features a 3mm chrome-alloy front panel, and the E8 has black ABS plastic housing.
