3. WELCOME TO THE IMPRESSA F7/F8
This fully automatic coffee center is completely programmable
and extremely user friendly. Your Impressa F7/F8 can prepare
one or two cups of crema coffee at a time. The two-step pres-
sure brewing system – well known in commercial applications –
was adapted and refined by Jura coffee specialists and is the
trademark of each Jura-Capresso coffee center. This Pre-Brew
Aroma-System ensures optimal coffee extraction and will finish
every cup with a rich layer of "crema" – proof for perfectly pres-
sure brewed coffee. Just press one of the two cup buttons and
your Impressa F7/F8 will grind, tamp and brew your personal
cup of coffee. The integrated solid steel conical burr grinder
grinds beans to the preferred fineness. A separate funnel lets
you use pre-ground coffee. All coffee, water and steam functions
are programmable to your own personal taste. Make any size
cup of coffee between 1 and 16 oz. The Dual Frother Plus* lets
you froth and steam milk for cappuccinos and lattes. The frother
delivers unlimited amounts of steam. The stainless steel lined
ThermoBlock prevents water from coming in contact with alu-
minum and allows you to brew coffee immediately after frothing
(no purging). The hot water function lets you prepare tea and
other beverages in seconds or use it to pre-warm your coffee
cups. All important functions such as water level, bean container,
used coffee container and water filter are monitored automatically.
You can program the machine to turn itself on and off, change
the language and check how many cups of coffee you made.
The F7/F8 has a beautiful symmetrical design with a heavy-duty
die-cast coffee spout, a stainless steel grid and elegant cup
illumination. Enjoy your Impressa F7/F8!
* The frothXpress System, an automatic frothing device, is included with
the F8 and separately available for the F7 (chapter 23). For details on the
frothXpress Plus accessory see video.
3a. "CREMA COFFEE" AND PRESSURE BREWING
According to the majority of coffee experts, grinding, tamping
and brewing under high pressure is the ideal extracting process
for maximum flavor and aroma. Your Jura-Capresso automatic
coffee center will always produce espresso and coffee with a
thick, foamy layer called "crema." The crema traps the fine aro-
