First time setup, use and review: Jura E8 Automatic Coffee Machine
Luxury bean to cup coffee machine. Since we've been in the Corona virus (COVID-19) lock down, my regular morning coffee from my local coffee shop has stopped.
As we've been stuck in, we decided to buy a Jura E8 luxury bean to cup coffee machine. This video shows the unboxing and first time setup of the Jura E8, review of the ease of use and basic features of how to make a good cup of coffee. I also show you how to set up the coffee machine from getting it out of the box,
inserting the filter cartridge
adding ground coffee
setting up the phone app
testing your water hardness
My review of the Jura E8 Automatic Coffee Machine demonstrates this convenient bean to cup automatic machine makes coffee, espresso, cappuccino, latte, machiato and more from whole bean coffee ground fresh for each cup or from already ground coffee. Learn how the machine operates including programming options and optional accessories like Smart Connect which gives users full control of the machine through Jura's J.O.E. app using a smartphone or tablet. See the machine in action as it makes a flat white, latte macchiato, espresso, and coffee. The E8 is available in chrome or piano black colours.
We purchased this unit from Harts of Stur online for the best price.
www.hartsofstu...
They were the cheapest at £739.00 (although prices and stock may well have changed) with great, fast delivery and kept us fully up to date with when the coffee machine would arrive.
We've looked into buying a Sage Barista but believed they are quite difficult to use. The Jura range is supposedly one of the best coffee maker machines for the home for automatic bean to cup coffee making. It also can use ground coffee.
I hope this Jura E8 tutorial and tips and tricks is useful for those wanting to buy the Jura E8 and researching coffee machines.

Coffee machine bought in same shop few days ago. Great shop. Machine is brilliant and designed to take Coffee beans which are grinded fresh,

@Aror82 4 года назад

@@RG500_detectorist yes it's really fantastic machine and Coffee tastes superb, great to hear you enjoy new machine. We have changed from DeLonghi 2800 basic model to Jura E8 just last week and it's just perfect for home. Yes regarding filters if you have hard water it will eat them lot. Great prices and I think best has Ecookshop although Hart of spur will match that price as they did for me. Just send them email and they will do same price 30£ for 3 filters. Normally they should last 1month and a week. But it's all depend how hard water is in your tap, we have some filters installed prior to tap so not too bad in our machine. Also make sure to look after milk frother and tube, what I do is after each milk coffee, put tube into water glass and press Milk, let it suck water instead milk for 5sec and tube is nice and clean, once maybe twice a week clean entire milk system with milk fluid as per manual. Good Coffee beans and machine can do amazing coffes, like a barista, but just at home 😁. Take care and enjoy

Hey...I just bought a used one. I'm a straight-up black coffee guy for decades, however, I'm looking forward to living life on the wild side with this machine. Nice presentation!

@RG500_detectorist 3 года назад

Hey... thanks for watching and commenting. Hope you enjoy your new machine. We start every day now with a triple flat white in a big cup! It's a pleasure making coffee now. I always thought cleaning and maintenance would be a pain, along with the machine becoming dirty or smelly but it's not the case. Really pleased with it still. The only small gripe is keep replacing the filter once a month because of London's ridiculously hard water but that's the price I suppose for a hassle free, great coffee. It is better than in the coffee shops, once you get it right. Love it and definitely a great purchase. Thanks again for your support.

Thank you Rich, i am about to buy one. This is very helpful.

@RG500_detectorist 4 года назад

Hi. Thanks for watching and commenting. I will be doing a follow up video very soon. So let me know if you need anything. A feature demo or any further information. Just be mindful that this unit does get through a lot of filters. I'm now using bottled water in a test by turning down the water hardness to see if they'll last longer. I have seen you can use it without filters but I'm unsure if that would seriously effect the lifespan of the unit. Overall, after several months of using it. It's Brilliant and makes fantastic coffee. The only things to check out are the filter prices as it'll probably go through at least 1 per month and you need to regularly clean the machine. Easy and automatic but something to think about. Thanks again. Rich

@RG500_detectorist 4 года назад

Also, if you're in the UK, call Harts of stur and insist on the offer they gave me. You can explain you found them from my RU-vid 'advert'. I'm not in any way connected to them but I think the unit is now much higher in price but believe in these difficult times they need to honour a deal. 😉

@lolynnnn Год назад

Could you tell what it defaults to if both ground and beans are filled? I like to have decaf ground coffee at night and espressos in the morning

@RG500_detectorist Год назад

You can't fill the machine with ground coffee. Ground coffee is a manual process at the time of making. So your machine will be full of coffee beans and this is the default. When you wish to have ground coffee you simply lift the little door on the top to inform the machine. You then proceed to fill the machine, via the door and little shute with 2 Jura spoons max. Close the door, select the coffee type and off you go. Using ground coffee, I've found the machine can sometimes get a bit confused and it sometimes dumps it out but when you get used to the process, it should be fine.

@lolynnnn Год назад

@@RG500_detectorist Jura customer service told me “if the powder chute is opened while the machine is running it will prepare ground coffee over beans.” But my machine (e8 inta) always chooses beans unless it’s completely empty. Must be temperamental like you say.

@RG500_detectorist Год назад

@lolynnnn yes, I think we're saying the same thing. Opening the chute and it'll ask to fill the chute with ground coffee 👍

@RG500_detectorist Год назад

@lolynnnn I would do you a video to demonstrate but mine has just broken, after 2 years of daily use. It's cool that Jura will send a box and collect. Not so cool that they are so busy, they can't fix it until the New Year and want £282 to service it.

I'm trying to find out how to make a cup of coffee larger than 8oz which the largest preprogrammed size. I follow the instructions with the 'press and hold', but the machine still stops on its own at about the 8oz. I am trying for approx 12-16oz Any advice?

@RG500_detectorist 3 года назад

Good afternoon Victoria from London! You could set the amount of coffee to the largest size, then work out how many seconds of milk you'd need to get to 16oz but then what happens if you want a smaller one one day, you'd have to reset the settings. All I do is set 50ml of coffee in the Flat white setting and 20 seconds of milk. If I want 16oz, which is exactly right for my morning coffee cup then I simply do a flat white x 3! You can watch my latest video where I demo this at 4 minutes and 7 seconds onwards.

@@RG500_detectorist I see so the max is 50ml or 8oz and I would just need to press 1-2x ( I guess I’m looking for just the coffee no milk included). But this is helpful already!

@RG500_detectorist 3 года назад

@@victoriazivyon9331 Hi. So I've checked in the expert mode settings and an expresso coffee from the centre spouts can be a max of 80ml (2.4 fl oz). Probably more in the double expresso. The flat white setting can be increased to 240ml (8.4 fl oz) but that would surely be super watery! The best setting I've found is 50ml shots. So 1.7 fluid oz per shot and just have as many as you want! I like my coffee strong so anything more than 60ml is too watery for me. I hope that helps. Thanks again. Rich

@mrsbelding2430 4 года назад

On the back of your drip tray does your machine dump dry fresh ground ?

@TheRealDavidJohnson 4 года назад

The only time I ever heard of this is when people put ground coffee in the coffee chute and then don't brew it. If you have a problem I recommend contacting Jura. We sell a lot of these machines and they are used in the top cafes all over the world and I've never heard of this.

@RG500_detectorist 3 года назад

Yes occasionally we've found this when using beans and especially if using the ground coffee shute. A minor flaw that you need to work on if using ground coffee and the amount we've seen when grinding is so small, we've not worried about it.

@RG500_detectorist 3 года назад

If you do contact Jura and get a resolution, I'd really appreciate if you could let us all know.

@mrsbelding2430 3 года назад

@@RG500_detectorist I ended up asking for a replacement. Basically it was grinding too much. More than the pot could handle hence overfilling. Causing grounds to be dumped on the back of the drip tray. New machine still dumps grinds but nowhere near as much.

@RG500_detectorist 3 года назад

@@mrsbelding2430 interesting! So thank you so much for sharing your update. Glad you've had it sorted. As I say, ours occasionally dumps, but not much and I've developed a knack when using ground coffee which seems to overcome any issues. Mine only issue would be the level of costly cleaning maintenance. I've been using genuine Jura products and our machine EATS filters. At least 1 per month. I'm now filling it with either tested bottle water which is a lot softer than London tap water or filtered Quooker tap water. A great tip after using the milk is, we always flush with a milk portion, except swap out for fresh water. Giving the system an instant flush. Thanks again. Richard

@543cooljon 3 года назад

Hey I was wondering if its tough to figure out the grind settings with this machine?

@RG500_detectorist 3 года назад

Hi, thanks for asking and thanks for taking the time to watch. I think it's really easy. There is a little door on the top of the machine. Open, start the grind, and adjust whilst it's grinding. Do a coffee and check the coffee dump for consistency. That said, I did adjust this but now just use the medium default settings. Seems to be great👍

So options start with Espresso, underneath: Ristretto, top right: Coffee, Hot water. Next screen souble Espresso, top right: Macchiato, underneath: Special, then Hot water for green tea.. Next screen are coffees that come out of the milk side, not main central nozzles. Cappuccino, then top right: Flat white, Latte Macchiato under, then milk. I can't see any setting to turn off the labels. Very odd!

@barriewright2857 Год назад

London water bound to be hard. It's probably gone through at least four other people before it gets too you. Come to the Midlands we get our water fresh straight of the Welsh hill sides, and no hard water, witch will probably make a good brew.

@RG500_detectorist Год назад

Yes, absolutely agree. London water is known to be unhealthy, probably illegal but no one is holding the companies to account.

Does it dispense water easily?

@RG500_detectorist 4 года назад

Yes, a push of a button for hot water but obviously it instantly heats it and it comes from the water tank so you will have to keep refilling. One think to keep in mind, we live in an area of very hard water and this machine eats filters (unless you want to keep descaling) We are using at least 1 per month and they are around £13.00.
