E8

The Jura everyone gets recommended

4.6

By Sarah WhitfieldApril 26, 2026

Category: Single-Serve & Pod
Brand: Jura
Price: $2999.00
Rating: 4.6 / 5

The E8 has been Jura's best-selling super-automatic for years and it's still the right answer for most buyers shopping in the $2,500–$3,500 range. Seventeen specialty drinks, the Pulse Extraction Process for short shots, and Jura's "professional" fine-foam frother — which actually does deliver microfoam closer to a real steam wand than the entry-level setups. The color display isn't as flashy as the S8's touchscreen, but the rotary-knob navigation is faster once you learn it. Daily maintenance is push-button automated. This is the machine to compare everything else against.

What we liked and didn't

Pros

Best balance of price, drinks, and milk quality in Jura's lineup
Pulse Extraction Process produces credibly short espresso shots
Automated cleaning and rinsing

Cons

Display is a step behind the touchscreen models
Like all super-automatics, no manual control over shot variables
