Remanufactured Jura-Capresso 13187 Impressa E8 Automatic Coffee and Espresso Center, Black



Like Brand New

I ordered this remanufactured machine thinking that I would buy a brand-new one after I determined that I would use a home espresso coffee maker often and this machine would break down. I use it daily and I love it! It’s is so easy to use and the coffee tastes just like Starbuck’s coffee,which I used to buy daily. It has saved me tons of $$$ and I would recommend the remanufactured machines. When I got mine it looked absolutely BRAND NEW. No scratches, dents, or dings anywhere on it and it works fabulously.

Coffee Lovers: This is an excellent machine!

This compact attractive machine is an excellent choice for use at home or perhaps a small office environment. The E8 makes creating expresso drinks easy and mess-free. It provides full control over the size and strength of each cup or shot you make.


Pros of this machine:


- The machine and milk steamer both heat up quickly.


- The water and bean containers are large enough that they do not require constant filling.


- The machine is automatic. Press a button or two and the machine grinds beans, produces coffee, then discards used beans and self-cleans.


- There is an available addon which converts the E8 to a super-automatic. This attachment will store milk in a refrigerated container and then auto-froth milk for cappucinos etc.


- The machine can use both whole beans or pre-ground coffee.


- The cleaning cycles are easy to perform and overall the machine is not difficult to maintain.


- Most importantly,…

This is a wonderful coffee machine

I bought the remanufactured machine. I honestly cannot tell that it isn’t new. There was nothing to indicate that it was a remanufactured unit.


The coffee the machine makes is creamy. Literally. I used to put a fair amount of sugar and milk in my drip coffee which always tasted bitter to me. I put just a dash of sugar and no milk in this coffee. It’s that much better.


I’m using french roast beans and the mild setting to make an americano coffee. I haven’t used the machine to make expresso. Not sure when I’ll get around to that.


You do not have to clean this machine very often. I refill the water daily, clean out the grinds and tray about one a week and have not yet had to do the cleaning routine (suggested every 200 cups). This machine is very easy to use and doesn’t require a lot of maintenance (like the weekly cleaning other machines require).


Overall, highly recommended and worth the money if you like to drink lots of coffee.
