Product Description
With less than 9 inches in width, the Jura-Capresso ENA Series is the slimmest automatic coffee center on the market. It offers a true bean-to-cup experience with incredible ease of use and environmentally friendly, energy saving features. Created for the espresso/coffee enthusiast, its smaller footprint frees up your kitchen counter while offering the best in authentic crema coffee, cappuccino, espresso, and latte. This slim beauty has 18 bars of pressure, a professional-grade conical burr grinder and many convenience features. At the touch of a button, it grinds, tamps, brews and self-cleans in less than 60 seconds and produces high-pressure brewed crema coffee or espresso to rival any cafe's coffee. Cappuccinos and lattes are easy with two frothing options: the Dual Frother Plus to froth like a barista and the patented frothXpress system (available on ENA 5) that automatically steams or froths milk into the cup. A hot water dispenser can be used for Café Americano or tea. Fully programmable, the ENA lets you personalize the amount, strength and temperature of your coffee. The user-friendly Rotary Dial makes it easy to override programming to prepare a special cup, without affecting the permanent settings. Convenient features include a LCD three-color alphanumeric display, automatic cleaning cycles and the CLEARYL water filtration system that eliminates the need to decalcify your ENA. A stainless steel lined thermoblock heats quickly to minimize wait times before initial brewing and steaming. A separate automatic ground coffee funnel lets you brew decaf or other varieties of coffee. The patent pending Zero Energy Button and Energy Save Standby Mode make this the smart choice for anyone who wants to save energy. The ENA is your choice to create your own personal espresso/coffee sensations.

Good machine but irritating design mistakes September 23, 2008

The Jura Ena is a well built machine that looks handsome in the shop but when you use you discover a bunch of silly design mistakes that make your experience of using it quite deceiving, I'll try to list them:
Rinsing: the Jura has a rinsing program, it's fine it has this! the problem is that it is badly designed: when you stop the machine it will automatically rinse, fine! when you start the machine it won't rinse automatically it will tell you to touch the button so that it rinses, why? It is very irritating to start the coffee machine in the morning, go to wash your teeth and when you go back to the machine it's not ready, it's asking you to push a button to get it rinsed.
Energy savings: it's also badly thought. You can ask the machine to automatically get in a saving mode so that it's on but it doesn't consume so much electricity. That's a very good idea but it's not well implemented. When it's in saving mode you can't make coffee, you have to wait to get it hotter, that's ok except that you don't know if it's in saving mode or not, you see that it tells you it's "ready" you push the button and then... it doesn't make your coffee, it tells you "please wait while i heat up", then you have to wait and push the button again. It'd be fine if it made the coffee directly after heating up, but it won't, you have to push again. In the end I don't use the energy savings.
Spit in your coffee: every time it makes a coffee it spits a little bit of (dirty) water before making the coffee why? irritating anyway.
The rotary switch: this machine pretends to work as a sort of iPod, I would like best to have several buttons and know what it is for each one, because that only button may be a little puzzling.
Capuccino: I don't like capuccino so I don't care much, I only tried once to make one and the result had nothing to do with what you see in the video.
I think this machine is designed to make coffees in pairs, I only made two coffees at a time once, and they looked better, it's probably a bad idea to make a home machine so that it can make two coffees at a time as most of the time you make only one coffee.
So my conclusion is that despite this coffee machine makes a correct coffee its processes (start up, rinse, energy savings etc.) are not well thought so it causes you a lot of very silly problems when using it in a home, probably all day long started without savings (an office and not caring for the electricity bill) would be acceptable but for a home user that tries to save electricity is a nightmare.
I don't recommend you this coffee machine.
