Review Jura Impressa XS90 One Touch Automatic Coffee Center

Jura Impressa XS90 One Touch Automatic Coffee Center Features

  • One touch cappuccino latte macchiato buttons, never move the cup
  • High-performance 15 bar pump
  • Two thermo-block heating systems
  • Six setting precision burr grinder with active bean level monitoring
  • Energy saving mode helps you save energy and money

Jura Impressa XS90 One Touch Automatic Coffee Center Overview

          Mention the word 'coffee' today and people no longer think of just espresso or milk coffee but also popular favorites like latte macchiato or cappuccino. A trend that now extends itself to boutiques, offices and the catering sector. So the fact that the Jura Impressa XS90 One Touch produces no fewer than twelve different coffee types - including latte - at the touch of a button is welcome news. The Jura Impressa XS90 gets the best out of every blend and roast of coffee and coffee lovers and connoisseurs will appreciate the Intelligent Pre Brew Aroma System.
          The optimum blend of small and large grains is guaranteed by the six-setting precision grinder and an active bean level monitoring system ensures that the grinder will never run empty. Simply by turning and pressing the Rotary Switch, you can vary all the settings to suit your personal taste.
          The display dialogue system has clearly legible red symbols that indicate when one of the maintenance programs needs to be activated. The machine then takes you through the necessary operating and programming steps in a choice of seven languages. Less frequently used programming buttons are discreetly concealed behind a flap. Integrated rinsing and cleaning guarantees the machine a long and active life. Use the machine's energy saving mode to suit the circumstances: this helps you save energy - and money - without having to give up genuine coffee specialties. And if you plan not to use the machine for a while, you can use the built-in mains switch to shut off the mains power supply completely.
          The Jura Impressa XS90 One Touch is ideal for situations where a daily capacity of 50 cups is required. It comes with a 1.5 gallon water tank, a container for up to 10 ounces of coffee beans and a grounds container for up to 40 portions.

Saeco Xelsis Review 5.0 out of 5 stars 
          I have (now you can say had!!) the Saeco Primea Touch Plus. I mainly make cappucinos. With the Primea, I had issues with the milk temperature (too cold) and no milk foam. Also, the cleanup was a pain.
I decided to try the Xelsis and I am glad that I did. So far I have had the machine for about two weeks and it is a winner. The milk comes out hot and the foam is perfect (looks like micro-foam done by a wand). It is easy to maintain and has worked flawless. The only negative is that the drip tray is kind of small but is it very quick and easy to empty. If you are looking for a quick and easy cappucino this machine is for you.

Exceptional! 5.0 out of 5 stars 
          I spent my Christmas 2009 reviewing expresso machines. I had just returned from a trip to Europe and finally was going to fold and get an expresso machine. I missed the expresso from Italy and France. 1oz of crema delight.
          So, I liked the Breville from all the reviews but was worried about some of the negativity on the "wet puck" I had read. All the reviews mentioned excellent coffee though, so it was on my short list.
          Then I saw the Breville BES860XL, also known as the Barista Express Programmable Expresso. From the looks you can tell this unit has exchanged the hot water dispenser for a bean grinder. This unit is a fully automatic expresso machine with the super automatic feature of grinding a pre-measure of beans for your brew. Note, it is not a super automatic machine as you still need to manually mount the portafilter into the group head, and clean the filter afterwards. This is as automatic as you will want to go if you want to really control your coffee. Read Full Review >>

 They don't last 2.0 out of 5 stars
          I'm going to have to give this a negative review.
          We are about to toss out our second machine in 5 years because it stopped working. I really expect this sort of appliance to last quite a bit longer than 2-2.5 years.
          I have reliably de-calcified it each month, but the failures seem to have more to do with the controls and what not, and the minimum repair bill seems to be well over half the cost of a new machine once you factor in shipping.
          It makes decent espresso (not great) and it foams milk VERY VERY well, but I'm not going to recommend a machine you have to replace every couple of years.
          Of course, your miliage may vary.

Perfect for what I wanted  4.0 out of 5 stars
         I wanted an automatic espresso machine, and was prepared to spend up to a $1500, but my problem was that I couldn't find anything in that price range that was reliable and had consistently good reviews. The Saeco Talea came up a few times, and I have a friend who has one, but that (like every other model I looked at) seemed to have only 60% or so positive reviews, or no reviews. I wanted something that would make espresso, required little to no maintenance and would last. I own a conventional espresso maker, and a semi-automatic. The conventional (stove top) works just fine, but I rarely use it because it takes too much time when I'm trying to get out the door in the morning. Virtually every seal in the semi-automatic has worn out, it was messy to clean up, and the milk frother was just a disaster (forget the constant cleaning, water bubbles out of it even when I'm not using it). Read Full Josh's Review >>

 Leak ! 3.0 out of 5 stars
          We have had the Nespresso CitiZ for about 10 days now. I had read several reviews here at Amazon that mentioned that their machine was leaking at the base, so I checked mine by simiply looking it over and saw no leak, but then when I decided to move the machine . . . low and behold there was a puddle of water underneath the machine!, just like other reviewers had mentioned. Our machine also leaks a bit before the coffee starts and mostly after the coffee has ended at the upper spout.
          This is a serious matter, especially when we paid top dollar for this machine. Will be calling Nespresso tomorrow morning and hope to get this matter taken care of. Will have to go back to the baristas for my Espresso. I understand in some cases Nespresso will mail out a backup unit to use while they work over the leaky model. Have a Manual campers model "Handpresso" coming in the mail, both the Wild and Dome models. It uses no electricity, and never has to be descaled, and is said to make very good coffee. The Dome model uses ESE pods and the Wild model uses your own grounds, and their are no reports of leaks or any problems.. for a lot less cash on the barrel head.
          The machine makes very good espresso, but I recommend warming the cup before filling it. The only capsule I didn't care for was the light blue one, but the taste can be covered up by adding some flavoring.
