ENA Series - Compact and Simple
The ENA line is Jura’s entry point. These machines are designed for small kitchens, studio apartments, and anyone who wants great espresso in the smallest possible footprint. The ENA 4 offers just 4 specialties with a text display - no milk system, no frills.
Best for: Solo espresso drinkers, tight counter spaces, budget-conscious buyers who want Jura quality.
Limitations: Limited drink variety, no built-in milk frothing, smaller water tank (1.1L).
E-Series - The Sweet Spot
The E-Series is where most Jura buyers end up, and for good reason. The E6 offers a solid starting point with 8 specialties and built-in milk frothing. The E8 steps up with 17 specialties, the Aroma G3 grinder, and Jura’s fine-foam milk technology - it is our best overall recommendation.
Models:
- E4 - 6 drinks, no milk system
- E6 - 8 drinks, built-in milk frother, color display
- E8 - 17 drinks, Aroma G3, fine-foam milk, P.E.P.
Best for: Home use, 2-10 cups per day, buyers who want great espresso and milk drinks at a reasonable price.

Z-Series - Premium and Flagship
The Z-Series is Jura’s premium home line. The Z10 is the standout - it is the only Jura with built-in cold brew extraction and the advanced Product Recognizing Grinder (P.R.G.) that automatically adjusts grind settings per drink. The Impressa Z6 is an older model that still delivers excellent espresso if you find it at a good price.
Models:
- Impressa Z6 - 13 drinks, Pulse Extraction, proven reliability
- Z10 - 32 drinks, cold brew, P.R.G., 4.3” touchscreen
Best for: Enthusiasts, cold brew fans, households that want the widest drink menu and best technology Jura offers.

GIGA Series - Commercial Grade
The GIGA line is built for volume. Dual ceramic disc grinders, dual thermoblock heating systems, and reinforced brew units mean these machines handle 30+ cups per day without performance loss. They are designed for offices, cafes, and shared spaces.
Key model:
- GIGA 6 - 28 drinks, dual grinders, dual heating, 2.6L tank, 4.3” touchscreen
Best for: Offices with 10+ people, small cafes, restaurants, and any setting where multiple users are brewing back-to-back throughout the day.
