The Verdict.

9.0/ 10

Gavler Meta-Score

The Jura E8 answers a different question than most espresso machines: 'What if you wanted extraordinary coffee without learning anything?' It succeeds spectacularly. The one-touch operation produces espresso, lungo, cappuccino, and flat white that would pass blind taste tests against many manual machines. The Professional Aroma Grinder is noticeably quieter and less heat-generating than competitors. The price is significant, but for households where multiple people drink multiple specialty coffees daily, the per-cup economics make sense within a year.

The Gavler Verdict

Community scores boosted by the sheer convenience factor. Espresso purists note that super-automatics can't match a skilled barista's manual extraction.

Global Critique

The closest thing to having a barista live in your kitchen. One-touch flat whites that rival specialty cafes.

Wirecutter

Jura's P.E.P. technology produces noticeably richer espresso than any other super-automatic we've tested.

Reviewed.com

Expensive, but if you're replacing daily cafe visits for a household, the math works in under a year.

Forbes

The quietest super-automatic grinder on the market. You can make coffee at 6 AM without waking anyone.
