Jura-Capresso 13214 Impressa Z5 Automatic Coffee Center

Jura-Capresso 13214 Impressa Z5 Automatic Coffee Center

Combining dramatic aesthetics with advanced technology, this fully automatic coffee center makes wonderful espressos, cappuccinos, lattes, and crema coffee with just the touch of a button. Eight one-touch beverage buttons can be programmed to accommodate individual preferences with the unit's unique rotary dial, which allows for changing the coffee strength, coffee volume, and more. The coffee center's integrated, commercial, solid-steel conical burr grinder offers quiet operation and six fineness settings for any type of bean, while its automatic pre-ground funnel system accommodates pre-ground coffee--great for making decaf coffee drinks when entertaining.

The unit's two-step pre-infusion cycle moistens and conditions the ground coffee for maximum flavor extraction with perfect crema topping. And for consistently professional results, two stainless-steel-lined thermoblock heating systems are always ready for coffee and steam with no downtime, no contact with aluminum, and no taste transfers due to the internal stainless-steel layout. The unit serves up the coffee and adds hot, frothed milk without your ever having to move the cup--its dual-nozzle system with two separate outlets for milk and coffee makes it possible. Moreover, short and long dual nozzle systems accommodate different-sized cups.

The unit comes equipped with an 18-bar power pump, an illuminated brewing area, a height-adjustable, separate hot-water spout, a 10-ounce bean container, and a 32-ounce triple-insulated thermal container that keeps cold milk chilled for up to 8 hours. For added convenience, its 96-ounce removable water container features a Clearyl water-care system, making decalcifying virtually obsolete. Other useful highlights include a user-friendly three-line LED display, an electronic bean-level sensor, an electronic water-level sensor, a used-coffee "container full" indicator, as well as programmable auto-on, continuous on, and automatic shutoff. Designed in silver-metallic housing with black accents and symmetrical lines for a clean, uncluttered look, the 1,350-watt machine makes for a beautiful addition to any home or small office. Made in Switzerland, the coffee center measures 12-1/5 by 14-1/2 by 17 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
