I owned a Jura S7 so-called "super-automatic" machine for a few years. It was fast and made terrific coffee. BUT it was a very expensive machine, very unreliable, and repairs were a pain in the neck to box it up and ship it back and forth as there was no local place that could do that. Eventually I gave up on dealing with it and trashed it. Big money loss for me. In my subsequent research, I found that this was pretty typical with these kinds of machines. Always breaking down. That was several years ago, so maybe they have become more reliable since then.She was talking about an automatic coffee machine. I was never interested in what they are and only recently began to study all this. And I realized that the automatic one is just right for me. Because if we talk about semi-automatic, then there are either expensive capsules, or you also need to spend time making coffee. And if I buy an automatic coffee maker I will spend more money in one time, but then I will save time. But after starting to read all these articles, now I understand that I want both an automatic coffee machine and a semi-automatic one
Thanks a lot
Anyway, after years of pretty lousy automatic drip machines (not very good coffee), I had given up on them years ago. However Technivorm changed all of that for me and has finally made me a happy coffee maker! Hope you find what works for you.
