Coffee Machines


You make a conscious choice in favour of a JURA fully automatic coffee specialty machine because…

  • you can choose from the full range of fresh coffee beans.
  • the bean-to-cup philosophy suits your taste.
  • you can create a perfect, fresh cup of coffee at the touch of a button.
  • you see yourself as part of the environment and want to help protect it in the long term.

We have added two new products, the Ena 9 Micro, the perfect home use machine with the smallest footprint of any automatic machine, and the all new F7, the ideal small use Office machine.

Sunny, and bright with the cocoa finish for which Colombians are famous, A superb new crop Columbian coffee, excellent in espresso with a smooth, slightly nutty hue, and full bodied and bold in the French press & it’s Rainforest Alliance too! Freshly roasted Colombian coffee beans are rich in flavor, heavy bodied, has a bright acidity, and is intensely aromatic. Huila is well-known growing region in Southern Colombia, with altitudes ranging from 1400-2000m. This particular coffee is processed at a small, very high quality wet mill in the centralised city of Neiva. The coffee ships out of Buenaventura, a nearby port, and passes through the Panama Canal.

As part of our continuing process of being able to offer our customers coffee from sustainable production we have added a further coffee to complement our Honduras El Jaguar.

The coffee is an El Salvador SHG (Strictly High Grown) EP, it is a 100% Bourbon, as 70% of plant stock in El Salvador are. This heirloom varietal is one of the reasons why coffee from this country is right up amongst some of the best in the world. They have the perfect climate and conditions for this low yielding, high maintenance strain.

The farm is based in the Apaneca-Ilamtepec mountain range near to the town of Turin in the Auchapan dept. During the non-picking season 16 people work on the farm maintaining and tending to the plants. During the picking period this goes up to 50 people. The altitude of the farm is 1350m.

The coffee is fully washed and sun dried on patios.

In the cup expect lots of sweetness like all great El Salvador Bourbons, but then you get a blast of oranges. A very balanced coffee with a smooth and almost creamy body to it. Then on the aftertaste; a waft of pomegranate.
