New JURA IMPRESSA A9 with Intuitive Slide and Touch Technology
JURA presents the fastest way to make the perfect cappuccino or latte macchiato: the IMPRESSA A9, a smart new automatic coffee center with slide and touch technology. Fun and easy to use, it offers intuitive operation via a self-explanatory color touch screen display, and it features an extensive menu with two completely new coffee specialties.
Twelve specialty options are available at the touch of a button, including, for the first time ever, latte macchiato doppio and cappuccino doppio, with maximum flavor crowned with fine, feather-like milk foam. Use the A9 for the best in high-pressure brewed coffee, or for espresso, ristretto, cappuccino or latte macchiato. It can also provide hot frothy milk foam or hot water.
Thanks to one-touch technology, this new model can automatically grind twice and prepare an extra shot, up to 20 grams. Coffee lovers can enjoy an extra shot at the touch of a button, with no need to move the glass or the cup.
Consumers can personalize their machine by saving their four favorite specialties on the start screen – and then they can activate preparation at any time with a gentle touch. Fill the bean chamber with whole coffee beans for a true bean-to-cup experience that’s freshly ground, not capsuled. JURA’s Aroma+ Grinder is twice as fast, with less noise, for fully preserved aroma.
The height-adjustable dual spout accommodates various sized cups and mugs by moving up or down on a continuous scale between 2.2 inches and 5.4 inches. Integrated cup illumination presents beverages in style.
Experience light-as-air milk foam with JURA’s revolutionary fine foam technology and innovative cappuccino/latte macchiato system. It’s easy to create trendy specialties combining coffee and milk without moving the cup.
The elegant design is slim, clean and simple, with a glossy Piano Black front and platinum side panels. The user-friendly operating concept extends to maintenance, too. Just one touch and the integrated rinsing, cleaning and descaling program ensures optimal performance.
The JURA IMPRESSA A9 has an actual retail price of $1,799. It will be available for shipment in June 2015.
