The Impressa J6 is the first Jura J-series model and looks stunning in piano black. With its heavy duty chrome platform, it has a smaller footprint than some of the other Jura machines, but still retains many of the same features.
The 10-digit LED display alerts the user to its current status such as “Ready”, “Rinse” “Fill Water” “Clean Machine”, “Fill Beans”, etc. and also shows the coffee strength and cup size on demand. Additionally, it is available in five languages: English, Spanish, French, German and Dutch. The brewing area illuminates whenever you push a button and then the lights then turn off automatically if the machine has not been used for three minutes.
Six buttons are pre-programmed for your convenience (one espresso, two espresso, one coffee, two coffees, hot water and steam and all are individually programmable. In addition, the one cup button has four coffee strengths available and two coffee temperatures, and three hot water output temperatures. Cup sizes range from ½ oz. to 8 oz. for a single cup button, ½ oz. to 8 oz. for a double cup button (up to 16 oz. total), ½ oz. to 15 oz. for hot water and 2 to 120 seconds for the steam button.
Additional features and benefits include:
The unique rotary dial allows the user to override the strength and cup size while brewing without changing the pre-programmed settings. The integrated rotary button has 11 different programming options available.
A 15-bar pump with a stainless steel-lined ThermoBlock ensures you the perfect high pressure extraction time and again! After brewing, the ThermoBlock automatically discharges any leftover water into the tray thereby ensuring every coffee starts with fresh water.
The J6 features two interchangeable frothing technologies – the dual frother plus (manual frothing) and the frothXpress (automatic frothing device). The dual frother plus is for traditional frothing and steaming with your frothing pitcher and has two settings. The frothXpress automatically siphons cold milk from your container and combines it with steam to deliver frothed or steamed milk directly into your cup.
Other highlights include:
A pre-infusion features gently moistens the coffee beans before brewing for that perfect crema espresso or coffee!
”Butterfly” design allows for height and width adjustable dual coffee spouts!
71 oz. water container, one of the largest for a compact machine. Water sensor alerts the user when water needs to be added.

Integrated commercial solid steel conical burr grinder has 6 fineness settings from a very fine grind to a coarse grind. In addition, the bean hopper holds 9 oz. of beans. When the hopper gets low, a sensor alerts the user to add more beans. Additionally, the machine will not function without beans in the hopper.
Concealed storage compartment for dual frother plus and measuring scoop.
The unique Clearyl water care system removes chlorine, lead, aluminum and copper for a better tasting coffee.
