Good But Disappointed also March 13, 2010 Guy J. Churchward (Scotts Valley, CA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
we've had an S9 Jura for over 7 years and made over 6,000 coffees with it. It was a trooper and fantastic but sadly died on us so we wanted a replacement. I checked the specs for the S9 and C9 and seemed they were pretty much the same so for the price difference it felt living with a black and slimmer model with slightly less horsepower was a sensible trade-off.
The good;
1. Quiet
2. Small
3. Makes a nice cup of coffee (if administered well)
4. Button layout and customization is way easier than the old S9
The Bad
1. Black is not as attractive as the silver and also shows marks easier
2. Water filters are different sizes to the S9 (had a stock so that's a little annoying)
3. All the essentials feel twice as small as the S9 and a pain.. the milk container cannot even support two Lattes, the water container is too small and the coffee store is also.
4. The One-Touch button makes for a warm and hot coffee so is also a pointless feature IMO.
5. Fixed steam spout so with large cups it will be a pain to remove them without spilling
When we made a coffee with the S9 and new with the C9 we put the coffee in first, fill the milk and 3/4 up we switch to steam and give it a blast for the heat. This on either machine makes a fabulous coffee but negates the value of the one-touch.
If I were doing this again, I'd go for either a cheaper model knowing the one-touch is pointless and if budget is the concern OR I'd sucked it in and gone for the S9 for the added capacity.. For me I wish I'd chosen the S9 as the capacity thing will probably grind on me more than anything else.. but the above will give you an idea of variances.
All this said, I LOVE Jura, for the years we've had them, they're reliable, provide great service and well worth the investment. I'll begrudgingly live with the C9 knowing I made the wrong choice,.. Hope this helps your decision process..
Over priced junk January 16, 2010 Scott Harris (Nantucket , MA) 1 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is the upgrade for the older model they sold me. The older one was in the shop at least once year for the tune of 150.00 a pop!!They then sold me this unit for an extra 500 and it was doing the samething the old one did. So whatch out for the hidden cost of servicing it once a year .
Wonderful machine, not so user-friendly October 18, 2009 Ishtar (NJ) I love my Impressa C9, it makes wonderful cappuccino without having to manually froth, but I must say the settings and instructions are quite opaque. This is why I'm giving it only four stars.
After 4 months, I still have to refer to the manual (not very well designed) to know what the machine is trying to tell me at times. This is my fourth superautomatic espresso machine, all the others having been Saeco machines with very easy instructions (but Saeco service being virtually impossible in the U.S., I really didn't want to get another Saeco).
Doesn't steam Milk June 13, 2009 A. Liesse (San Diego) 8 out of 14 found this review helpful
DO NOT BUY THE C9. Before you buy the C9, know that it can only steam milk for Latte's to 120 degrees. The minimum temperature required is 150 degrees. I was the one that discivered this product defeciency, so before you spend $1,799, call Jura and ask them how hot the C9 will steam milk
Gorgeous machine May 8, 2009 Gertrude, the Bad Queen (If it's still summer, Lake Michigan) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is my second fully automatic espresso maker. The first one was a Jura Espresso E8. They seem to have a life span of about 5 years with very frequent use -- probably 10-15 single cups a day.
The Jura-Capresso espresso maker only needs you to feed it with water and espresso beans and empty out the grounds drawer every once in a while. It does every single other thing. At the touch of a button, it grinds the beans to the perfect texture, tamps it to perfection, and brews espresso exactly. Finding espresso beans is always interesting. Right now, my favorite are from a small roaster called Ancora in Wisconsin. This espresso maker prefers beans that are not too dark and oily and never likes flavored beans. French Roasts are good, as are Columbian, for a rich flavor. Lavazza beans are good for everyday use. My only complaint? The espresso is just a little too perfect.
It is not the same as sitting in a cafe on a sidewalk in Paris sipping espresso and smoking gauloises. But very few things are.
