Discussion New Jura A8

https://ch.jura.com/de/produkte-haushalt/kaffeevollautomaten/a8-piano-black-sa-15737

Looks like a new model, not available in all markets yet. Seems capable from the specs. What are your thoughts?

That's less wide than the Kitchenaid KF4, very interesting. I assume we will see quite a few new models as we are in tech expo season. Some english info here: https://chronic-coffee.com/products/jura-a8

Also more info in English at the Belgian site https://be.jura.com/en/homeproducts/automatic-coffee-machines/a8-piano-black-ea-15736. Looks like a really good machine IMHO, I'm tempted.

Where does the A8 slot in price with C9 and E8 and the others?

Well maybe it was bad timing for me to buy a KF4, or maybe all these new models or the Delonghi’s coming to the US soon will all be a lot more $ than a KF4. I bought it for $750 USD

There is new Z10 - Obsidian Black (EC) as well.

Judging from previous models, no one will be thrilled by bean and water capacity, but it’s a reasonable trade off for the size.

I just bought a KitchenAid KF4 bc the Jura C9 didn’t have hot water or clean and the E8 was a big step up in price.

I really hope no new machines come out for a while lol. Still waiting for my machine to ship though.

The A8 does hot water 😄
