Features of Jura coffee equipment

One of the few brands on our market that produces and sells its own products. The plant is located in Switzerland itself, and supplies come from there through official dealer networks.

Jura coffee machines have a number of significant advantages compared to other equipment for a similar purpose:

  1. The strength is increased or decreased by the regulator already at the stage of grinding the beans.
  2. The volume of liquid changes as the cup is filled.
  3. The brewer has a pre-wetting function - this way you can also brew from ground coffee if there are no beans at the moment.
  4. The Jura cooking chamber holds 16 grams, respectively. The drink will be stronger and there will be more of it. Others have a maximum volume of the cooking chamber of 12 grams, mostly 8-10 grams.
  5. The teapot is non-removable, it cannot be broken, and overall it is very easy to care for.
  6. Cappuccino makers produce the thickest foam.

According to user reviews, there are no downsides; there are only some nuances that you need to get used to. For example, after every 200th cup, the machine needs to be cleaned of coffee oil, for which special tablets are used. If you do not clean it, the unit will not start.

Top-class home appliances that allow you to get the perfect drink. This is facilitated by an improved brewing method, where hot water is pulsed at short intervals under pressure through a portion of ground coffee. This method – Pulse Extraction Process – reveals the aroma and taste completely.

Review of the Jura impressa f50 coffee machine

One of the most popular models of coffee machines from the JURA series, which replaced the ENA Micro 9, and the version of the F50 model updated in 2012, is the IMPRESSA F50 Classic machine.

The Jura Impressa F50 is impressive - not only does it have an attractive design, it is a truly beautiful coffee machine. Made in hi-tech style, it has a discreet decor that looks very stylish.

Manufacturer, cost, where to buy

Jura brand coffee machines are manufactured in Switzerland and Portugal. The F50 model, being more affordable in terms of cost, is produced in Portugal under the control of Swiss manufacturers. The cost of the model is about 40,000 rubles.

It is recommended to purchase Jura coffee machines at specialized centers for the distribution of goods from this manufacturer. This eliminates the risk of purchasing a counterfeit. The official representative of the Jura Impressa F50 company in Russia is located at: Red Square, 3, GUM. Official website - www.jurarussia.ru.

  • ability to adjust under the dispenser glass for serving coffee;

Customer Reviews


Consumers are satisfied with this technique and the taste of the prepared drinks.
Users note that the Impressa F50 machine from Jura is reliable, well-built and prepares delicious coffee drinks. Among the advantages are the ability to regulate the strength and volume of coffee, self-cleaning of the device, and compact dimensions.

Most owners of this model use it for several years without breakdowns. The cost of the Jura Impressa F50 coffee machine is quite high, and this is what users consider the main disadvantage.

Jura Impressa F50 is a coffee machine from a Swiss manufacturer that is suitable for both home use and a small coffee shop. The device prepares classic coffee drinks (Americano, espresso), as well as cappuccino with thick milk foam. The coffee machine is not cheap, but the quality justifies the cost.

Decalcification of the Jura Impressa F50 coffee machine

The Jura Impressa F50 Classic coffee machine is subject to a preventive decalcification process in automatic or manual mode.

The fact is that problems with the Jura Impressa F50 Classic coffee machine can be caused by the formation of a salt crust on its walls due to the use of low-quality water. It not only has a detrimental effect on the condition of the coffee machine itself, but also reduces the taste of the drink.

At the same time, decalcification of the Jura Impressa F50 coffee machine, according to the instructions, should be done at least once a month, and if the water is soft, then even less often. It’s worth thinking about the need to carry out the decalcification process after the two hundredth cup of coffee.

However, you should consider carrying out unscheduled cleaning if:

  • the drink has lost its taste or acquired bitterness;
  • the presence of a white precipitate;
  • the coffee preparation process has slowed down;
  • the drink is poured into the cup in a thin stream;
  • vibrations and increased noise appeared.

At the same time, you should not immediately send the coffee machine in for repair; you should try to clean and decalcify it. To do this, you should choose a branded product - tablets for removing scale and grease.

For the Jura Impressa F50 coffee machine, universal tablets like Platinum would be an ideal option, but after using them you will have to thoroughly rinse the machine with water so as not to harm the body.

At the same time, numerous user reviews are aimed at preventing the use of folk remedies, including vinegar, citric acid, and Coca-Cola.

The unit already has a coffee machine decalcification program, which usually works like a clock, but sometimes freezes. It is easy to eliminate this freeze; you just need to unplug the unit from the outlet and turn it on again. If after this nothing has changed, you will have to call a specialist.

Built-in timer for preparing drinks at the appointed time

If you are looking for a fully automatic device for brewing coffee and your budget is not limited to a couple of tens of thousands of rubles, then I suggest you familiarize yourself with the features of the JURA Impressa F50 Classic coffee machine.
This is an automatic model with the ability to prepare two servings at the same time, which, you see, is convenient if there is more than one person who wants to drink coffee. The built-in burr steel coffee grinder allows you to adjust the degree of grinding (6 positions), opening up more and more new shades of taste for you. If you dream of waking up to the smell of freshly brewed coffee, then you will definitely be pleased with the built-in timer. Your favorite drink will be ready right when you wake up. Great replacement for an alarm clock!

Automatic brew unit rinsing and cup warmer

The self-cleaning system reduces maintenance to a minimum. And the rotary switch is extremely easy to operate. You don’t even have to read the instructions, although I still recommend not neglecting this book. The heated stand will ensure that the finished drink is poured into heated cups and does not cool down longer.

A cappuccino maker is also available. It's double acting. There is a manual whipping function with a Panarello nozzle, or you can use an automatic approach with an outlet hose, the end of which is placed in a container of milk. You can even put it in a tetra pack. And then at the exit of the steam tap you will get thick, dense milk foam without any effort.

The control system is extremely simple. Anyone, even without tips, can easily prepare themselves a cup of aromatic invigorating drink. The waste collection container holds 16 servings, and the water tank holds 1.9 liters. The JURA F50 Classic coffee machine allows you to regulate the temperature, strength of the drink and its volume. By the way, the model is suitable for both bean and ground coffee.

The Jura F55 Classic coffee machine differs from the F50 only in color. Its main color is silver.

The F50 model of the Swiss brand Jura belongs to a high-price class coffee machine - as of the end of 2020, the cost of such a “device” averages from 80 to 110 thousand rubles, depending on the region. Large retailers may have cheaper prices if they hold promotions. If you go on sale, you can get an almost premium device at an attractive price.


The Jura F50 Classic coffee machine is extremely easy to use: there is no need to remove, rinse or lubricate the brewer. But use cleaning tablets regularly!

Fixed brewing unit: pros and cons

Actually, like all the company’s coffee machines, the Jura F50 and, accordingly, the F55 do not need regular cleaning of the brewing unit.
It does not need to be washed under the tap or lubricated, it is generally non-removable. But this fact also has a downside: since cleaning occurs only with tablets with chemicals (carry out regularly strictly according to the instructions!), and a certain amount of ground coffee still gets clogged inside, then once every 1-3 years you have to take the machine to a service center for a comprehensive maintenance with disassembling the case and cleaning the insides. The cost of the operation can easily exceed 10,000 rubles. You need to be prepared for this. I wrote more about this in the review of the Jura C5/C50/C60 line. Publication date: 03/09/2015.

How to choose the right coffee machine

Swiss Jura is considered by many to be the standard in terms of configuration, quality, taste and strength of drinks. Objectively, the brewing device, thermoblocks, pump are the most reliable on the market, the cappuccino machine has been worked out to the smallest detail - even from the most inexpensive milk (fresh) it will whip up an excellent foam cap.

Since this is still a premium class equipment, when choosing, pay attention to the following:

  • separate profiles;
  • choosing the amount of foam;
  • heating cups;
  • work area lighting;
  • the ability to alternate ground coffee and beans;
  • ability to adjust volume and strength.

All Jura brand models use the same basic components, equivalent in quality and price. But it’s easy to get confused in the variety of bells and whistles. To simplify the task, you should first soberly assess your needs: how much and what will be prepared in the food processor.

The result will allow you to move on to the next step - choosing performance. Based on the number of cups per day, they are divided into three categories:

  • less than 10;
  • less than 30;
  • more than 30 per day.

Performance also includes power (standard), pressure and volume of tanks for water, coffee and waste (maximum 16 servings).

It is interesting that it was Jura who was the first and so far the only one on our market to offer the largest volume of the brewing tank - 16 grams, which makes it possible to prepare the same espresso or ristretto with an eye-watering strength.

Next, it’s logical to start crossing out everything unnecessary. For example, answer the questions whether after each cappuccino you will want to additionally wash a separate container for milk, whether you need 2 cups at once or 1 is enough, provided that the time difference is only 2 minutes.

Its price depends on the functionality of the machine. Careful selection of additional functions allows you not to overpay for something that you don’t use later.

At this stage, dimensions and design are assessed. It should be fairly compact and relatively silent, although many users complain about noise during grinding.

The design is also interesting - you can purchase a white, silver or standard black model. This does not affect the quality, although white models are traditionally more expensive.

In a word, first figure out what functions you need and then choose equipment with “your” functionality.
