Now with more specialty drink options

Jura launched the successor to its Z6 coffee machine, the flagship Z8, at IFA in Berlin last week. The machine will be rolled out in Australia in time for Mother’s Day 2017, with pricing still to be confirmed.

Jura Australia head of sales, George Liakatos told Appliance Retailer: “We are very excited to introduce the Z8, an excellent addition to our premium range of automatic coffee machines. With the unprecedented success of the Z6 in 2016, the Z8 takes coffee preparation to the next level.”

For the first time, the temperature can be set for the foam and the milk individually from a range of ten different levels. The Z8 offers more specialty drink options, 21 in total, to suit all coffee preferences from Americano and lungo to ristretto and espresso. It sports a larger screen, two thermo blocks and two pumps.

Users are able to program their own specialties, adjust the coffee amount and temperature. The aroma protection container helps to keep beans fresh.
