JURA Impressa J90 Overview
The Impressa J90, an update to the earlier J9 model, is an impressive one-touch machine. We love the addition of chrome accents and a glass drip tray, and think they really elevate the design to be in keeping with a more modern kitchen.
Features and Performance
As a one-touch machine, the J90 is capable of brewing up all your favorite espresso and milk-based drinks, such as an espresso, ristretto, long coffee, latte macchiato, and cappuccino. All of these drinks can be customized to your personal preferences, across five strength settings, and two temperature settings, and coffee volume.
JURA’s Fine Foam Frother allows you to adjust milk density with a quick twist of a dial before, or during, brewing. JURA’s integrated Intelligent Pre-Brew Aroma pre-infusion system ensures you get the best possible extraction out of the espresso, and the specially designed Aroma+ Grinder can be fine tuned, or avoided entirely by scooping pre-ground coffee into the bypass doser to brew.
A rotary dial cycles through options on the color, LCD display, allowing you to easily select a drink to personalize or brew. The J90 is as simple to keep clean as it is to brew with. It features a generous 2 liter removable reservoir that can be equipped with a CLEARYL Blue water filter to preserve coffee taste and cut down on scale build up. As on all JURA machines, the cleaning cycles are completely automated, and a warning pops up on the screen to let you know it’s time for a little maintenance.
All you have to do is add the designated cleaner and press start and the J90 cleans its own brew group, milk system or descales the boiler system. For a more modern look and larger capacities, step right up to the JURA Impressa Z9; to save on space, the compact A9 easily slides into any kitchen.
