3. WELCOME TO THE IMPRESSA E Series  
3a. "CREMA COFFEE" AND PRESSURE BREWING  
This fully automatic coffee center is completely programmable  
and extremely user friendly. Your Impressa E can prepare one or  
two cups of crema coffee at a time. The two-step pressure  
brewing system – well known in commercial applications – was  
adapted and refined by Jura coffee specialists and is the trade-  
mark 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-  
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-  
matics and the light gaseous flavors that register on the palate.  
The high pressure and the short brewing time prevent the

extraction of bitter oils and release less caffeine than any other  
brewing method. You will always make the absolute freshest  
and most aromatic cup of coffee. This is the reason why many  
European restaurants and hotels serve fresh pressured brewed  
coffee only. Experiment with your new machine and prepare  
yourself the best and most enjoyable cup of coffee!  
prepared. Typical US espresso roasts result in darker beans with  
an oily outside. European espresso roasts are medium brown  
with no or very little oils showing on the outside.  
Please note: Dark, oily beans: see chapter 7.  
4. PLEASE, DON’T... (or you void your warranty protection):  
• Never pull out the drawer during the brewing process.  
• Never fill instant coffee into the bean container or ground coffee  
funnel; it can damage the brewing chamber.  
• Never fill sugar coated coffee beans into the bean container.  
• Never fill frozen beans into the bean container. If you store  
beans in the freezer, let them thaw for 3 to 4 hours before  
filling them into the bean container.  
• Never fill anything other than coffee beans into the bean  
container (no chocolate, rice, nuts, spices, etc.)  
• Never fill anything but fresh, cold clean water into the water  
container, except when decalcifying (chapter 20b).  
3b. DIFFERENT COFFEE DRINKS  
Here are some guidelines for the most popular coffee drinks:  
• Ristretto: 1/2 to 1 oz. of coffee. Sweeten to taste  
• Espresso: 1 to 2 oz. coffee. Sweeten to taste  
• Double Shot: 3 to 4 oz. of coffee. Sweeten to taste  
• Crema Coffee: 5 to 8 oz. of coffee  
• Cappuccino: Espresso plus 3 to 4 oz. of hot frothed milk.  
• Latte: Espresso plus 3-5 oz. steamed milk with little or no froth.  
• Café Mocha: Make Espresso then add chocolate syrup to the  
milk before frothing/steaming.  
Experiment with the size of your milk based drinks. For stronger  
coffee taste add more coffee, for more milk taste use more  
frothed milk.  
• Never use mineral or carbonated water. You can use tap  
water, spring water, distilled water and reverse osmosis water.  
• Never repair or open the machine yourself. All repairs should  
be performed only by an authorized service center.  
3c. COFFEE FACTS  
Caffeine is tasteless. A "strong" coffee or espresso is mostly  
the result of the amount of coffee in relation to the amount of  
water. The longer a bean is roasted, the less caffeine it has.  
Arabica and Robusta are two genetically different kinds of  
beans. "Arabica" beans have more flavor and a little less caffeine  
than "Robusta" beans which are mostly used in lower priced  
coffees and instant coffees.  
PLEASE, DO...  
• Fill water tank with fresh, cold water only.  
• Remove any foreign particles (small stones) from coffee beans.  
• Let frozen beans thaw for 3 to 4 hours before pouring them  
into the bean container.  
Espresso is not a bean, it's the way the coffee is roasted and

5. FACTORY SETTINGS  
Each machine leaves the factory with the following settings:  
Filter ..................... NO  
Hardness Level .... 2  
Aroma ................... ROBUST  
Auto Off ................ 2 hours after last use  
Language ............. English  
Cup Size ………….. OZ.  
Rinse ………………  
The Dial is set to 4 OZ. for coffee and for hot water and  
for 60 SEC for steam.  
6. PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR THE FIRST TIME  
• Make sure all accessories, literature and any other items are  
removed from the machine and the water tank.  
• Make sure the machine sits on an even, flat surface and the  
drawer, tray and used coffee container are inserted (Fig 2).  
• Plug-in machine.  
• Do NOT fill water tank now.  
Important: Do not install the Clearyl Water Filter cartridge  
now. It can block the machine.  
Turn the machine on by pressing the ON/OFF button (Fig. 3a).  
The display shows FILL WATER.  
• Remove water tank, fill with fresh, cold water and replace.  
7. ADDING COFFEE BEANS  
• Open the bean container lid (Fig. 1, 9), fill with beans (Fig. 5).  
The container holds approx. 220 grams (8 oz.). Close the lid.  
Frozen Beans: Thaw for 3 to 4 hours be 0 TD [0-TadndingtY  
The display shows OPEN TAP  
The following procedure is only necessary when setting up the  
machine for the first time and after the procedure "Emptying  
System Before Transport" (chapter 19f).  
Sugar Coated Beans: DO NOT fill sugar coated beans into the  
bean container. The sugars will stick to the burrs and clog the  
flow of ground coffee. Have your local coffee store grind  
the sugar coated beans and use as described in chapter 11.  
Using Oily Beans: Beans with an oily surface tend to stick  
together. This may prevent a continuous flow of beans from the  
bean container into the burrs. As a result the grinder does not  
grind enough coffee and you might get weak or no coffee at all.  
Stir the beans in the bean container just before grinding.  
Alternatively, you can also pour the beans in an open bowl and  
let them sit for about 5 hours. The oils will evaporate (this will  
not change the taste of your coffee). Then fill the beans into the  
bean grinder. Now beans will feed into the burrs more easily.  
• Push and hold On/Off button until the display turns on. If your  
machine is cold the display shows HEATING. After approx. 2  
minutes the display shows RINSE.  
• Press the Rinse Button (Fig. 3,f). Hot water will warm up all  
internal parts and pump through the coffee spouts. The water  
will be caught in the drawer underneath. The rinse cycle stops  
by itself and the display reads: READY You are now ready to  
make coffee.  
10. GRINDING AND BREWING  
The Impressa E uses a 2-step brewing process (Pre-Brew Aroma  
System). First it moistens the ground coffee (pre-brew phase),  
pauses for a few seconds and then starts the brewing process.  
• Adjust the height of the coffee spout to your cup size (Fig. 12)  
and place one or two cups underneath the coffee spouts.  
8. ADJUSTING THE GRINDER  
You can adjust the grinder to the roast of your coffee.  
We recommend the following:  
Light roast: use a finer adjustment.  
Dark roast: use a coarser adjustment.  
• Open the lid of the bean container.  
• While the grinder is running turn the grind selector switch to  
the desired position (Fig. 6).  
– The smaller the dots, the finer the grind.  
– The bigger the dots, the coarser the grind.  
Important: The grinding grade can only be adjusted while  
the grinder is actually grinding.  
10a. SELECTING CUP SIZE AND STRENGTH  
Cup Size 1 OZ. to 8 OZ; max: 16 oz.  
• Push the Dial. It will illuminate and the display will show the  
cup size in oz, e.g. 4 OZ.  
Turn the dial to select any cup size between 1 OZ. and 8 OZ.  
Your machine will always remember the last setting. After 5  
seconds the display will change back to READY.  
• When using the 2-Cup button the machine will automatically  
double the selected amount of coffee.  
Coffee Strength MILD NORMAL - STRONG  
Push the 1-Cup button once, the display shows MILD.  
Push the 1-Cup button twice, the display shows NORMAL.  
Push the 1-Cup button three times, the displays shows STRONG.

Grinding times (approx.)  
• Open the lid for the ground coffee funnel (Fig. 1.8) and fill the  
funnel with one or two scoops of ground coffee.  
Important: Do NOT fill this funnel with instant coffee and do  
not use more than two level scoops of coffee.  
MILD .......... 6 to 7 seconds.  
NORMAL ... 7.5 to 8.5 seconds.  
STRONG..... 9 to 10 seconds.  
• Push the 1-Cup or 2-Cup button. The machine will tamp and  
brew coffee.  
AROMA-setting "STANDARD" has the shorter grinding times.  
AROMA-setting "ROBUST" has the longer grinding times.  
When using the 2-Cup button the grinder will always grind  
between 9 and 10 seconds.  
Please note: If you push the scoop button accidentally push  
the 1-Cup button. Display shows ADD MORE POWDER. The  
machine will start brewing, stop and return to READY.  
Please note: After use of sugar coated or flavored coffee  
through the pre-ground coffee funnel you may experience some  
flavor transfer when going back to your regular coffee.  
• Push and hold the Rinse Button (Fig. 3f) until the display  
shows RINSE.  
Please note:  
When using the 1-Cup button, the display will first show the  
strength setting. When the pre-brew cycle starts, it will show the  
actual cup size. At this time you can still change the cup size by  
turning the Dial.  
When using the 2-Cup button, the display will first show  
2 CUPS. When the pre-brew cycle starts, the display shows the  
cup size for one cup. At this time you can still change the cup-  
size by turning the Dial.  
• The Dial illuminates. Push the Dial (Fig. 3e). The machine will  
perform one rinse cycle and the display will return to READY.  
12. USING HOT WATER  
Please note: After the pre-brew cycle you can always stop the  
brewing process by pushing the 1-Cup or 2-Cup button. This will  
not affect your cup size setting for the next brew cycle.  
Important: Never try to pull out the tray as long as the machine  
is grinding, brewing or discarding the used coffee. Always wait  
until the display shows READY.  
READY 1 OZ. to 16 OZ. SHUT TAP - READY  
The hot water feature allows you to make a cup of tea, a quick  
soup or add hot water to your coffee, making it less strong.  
• Place a cup underneath the frother (Fig. 13).  
Turn the Steam/Water Selector to the water symbol (Fig. 4b).  
Hot water will push through the frother. The display shows the  
amount of hot water. You can change it from 1 to 16 oz. by  
turning the Dial (Fig. 3e) now. The machine remembers the last  
setting. When the water flow stops, display shows SHUT TAP.  
Turn the Steam/Water Selector back to the cup symbol. READY.  
Please note: You can always stop the flow of hot water by  
turning the dial to the cup symbol.  
11. USING PRE-GROUND COFFEE  
You can also use pre-ground coffee, bypassing the grinder. This  
comes in handy if someone requests decaf, sugar coated or  
flavored coffee.  
• Push the Pre-Ground Coffee Button (Fig. 3h). The display  
shows: FILL POWDER  
13.

13. FROTHING and STEAMING  
The steam function can be used to heat up any liquid and to  
steam and froth milk.  
Steaming Position:  
The Frother's metal cylinder is in the UP position (Fig. 16). In the  
steaming position hot steam is injected into the milk (or any  
other liquid) without creating a frothy layer on top.  
Typically a Latte has steamed milk with no froth.  
Please note: When you start steaming, some hot water will  
push out of the nozzle before the steam begins. When frothing  
a lot of milk this will not change the taste of your frothed milk.  
You can also release this small amount of hot water into the  
tray or into a separate container:  
Turn the Steam/Water Selector to the Water Symbol for one  
second and then back to the Cup symbol. Now start  
frothing/steaming.  
Please note: When you stop the steam output the display will  
show STEAM READY for the next 20 seconds. Within this  
time you can continue to use the steam function.  
If you want to steam at a later time you must first press the  
Steam button (Fig. 3g).  
Frothing Position:  
The Frother's metal cylinder is in the DOWN position (Fig. 16). In  
the frothing position hot steam and air is injected into the milk  
creating warm milk and a firm layer of tiny froth bubbles.  
14. HEATING AND FROTHING MILK  
Tips for frothing (Cappuccino):  
READY HEATING - STEAM READY - 60 SEC - CLOSE TAP  
• Push the Steam button (Fig. 3g). Display shows HEATING.  
• Add cold milk to a pitcher or a cup.  
The tip of the frother should not touch the bottom of your pitcher.  
Start in the steaming position – cylinder "up" (Fig. 16) – for a few  
seconds. Then push the cylinder "down". Milk froth will build up.  
This way the froth on top of your milk is also warm. If the frothed  
milk is not warm enough, continue in the steaming position.  
Steaming and frothing directly in your cappuccino cup:  
With practice, you can steam and froth directly in your  
cappuccino cup. First steam and froth the milk, then add your  
espresso shot.  
• After 15 to 30 seconds the display shows STEAM READY.  
• Immerse the tip of the frother into the milk (Fig 17&18) and  
turn the Steam/Water Selector to the Water/Steam Symbol.  
Hot steam will be injected into the milk. The display shows  
how long steam will be forced through the frother, 60 SEC.  
• At this time you can change the steam output from 3 and 120  
seconds. The machine will remember your last setting. When  
the selected steam time is up, the display shows SHUT TAP.  
Turn the Steam/Water Selector to the cup symbol. If you need  
more steam turn the Selector back to the water/steam symbol.  
Please note: You can always stop the steam output by turning  
the Steam/Water Selector to the cup symbol.  
Please note: The less fat content the milk has the more froth will  
be created. Skim milk will produce the most froth and will let you  
taste more of the coffee. 1% and 2% milk will give you less  
froth. Regular whole milk (3% fat) will produce the least amount  
of froth. You can also use soy milk.

15. CLEANING THE DUAL FROTHER PLUS  
Always keep the Dual Frother Plus clean and free of milk  
deposits. Hardened milk particles will make it impossible to  
create milk froth.  
• Assemble the Dual Frother and make sure that the tip is  
screwed onto the Connector finger tight (Fig 14a, c).  
• Push the black Clip-on Connector (Fig.14c) firmly into the  
steam nozzle (the connector should sit flush with the chrome  
sleeve (Fig. 15b) so that the steam nozzle is no longer visible).  
Please note: If the parts are not put together tightly it will not be  
possible to create the frothy foam on top of the milk.  
Fast cleaning:  
Display shows READY. Place a cup underneath the frother (Fig.  
13) and turn the Steam/Water Selector to the water symbol. Let  
hot water run through the frother for about 3 seconds and then  
stop. This will flush out any small milk droplets.  
16. CLEARYL WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE  
The machine comes with one Water Filter Cartridge. This  
cartridge is specially made for use with the Impressa E series.  
The cartridge:  
• Reduces the water hardness up to 75%.  
• Removes (if present) up to 85% chlorine, up to 90% lead, up  
to 95% copper and up to 67% aluminum.  
• Cleans the water through an upward current principle (Fig. 8)  
just before the brewing cycle starts, ensuring freshly filtered  
water every time you make coffee.  
• Eliminates decalcifying. When using the water filter cartridge,  
you never need to decalcify your machine.  
Thorough cleaning of the Dual Frother parts:  
• Remove the Dual Frother (Fig.14) from the Steam Nozzle  
(Fig. 15c).  
Please note: The Dual Frother is tightly connected to the  
Steam Nozzle. First loosen the Clip-On Connector part (Fig. 14c)  
by turning it a few times, then push down to remove.  
• Unscrew the black tip (Fig.14a) from the Clip-On Connector  
(Fig. 14c). You can use a coin to loosen the black tip.  
• Soak all three parts in hot soapy water.  
• Make sure that the two side holes and the channel of the black  
tip (Fig. 14a) are free of any milk deposits.  
To reorder cartridges see chapter 22 "Supplies".  
Cleaning the Steam Nozzle (Fig. 15c)  
• Place a cup underneath the Steam Nozzle (the Dual Frother is  
off) and let a bit of hot water run through the Steam Nozzle.  
Tip: If the steam nozzle is blocked by hardened milk, use a  
needle and loosen up the milk deposit. Then let some hot  
water pass through the Steam Nozzle.  
16a. INSTALLING & ACTIVATING THE CLEARYL WATER  
CARTRIDGE  
Important: Never install the cartridge before or during  
"Preparing Machine For The First Time."  
• Make sure the water tank is empty.  
• Remove cartridge from its bag and rinse cartridge under water  
• Open water container lid and pull up the holder for the  
cartridge (Fig.9).  
Assembly of Frother Parts  
• Make sure the Steam Nozzle is screwed onto the Metal Tube  
(Fig. 15a) finger tight.

4. Push Dial confirm. The display shows INSERT / OPEN TAP  
5. Place a 20 oz. container underneath the frother.  
6. Turn the Steam/Water Selector to the water symbol.  
FILTER RINSING. For the next 90 seconds the machine will  
push water through the filter and through the frother. Do not  
interrupt this process. This activates the filter.  
The machine will stop automatically.  
use less than 75 liters of water. In this case, no message will  
appear in the display.  
Important: Once the filter has lost its calcium suppressing  
abilities, calcium will build up inside the machine. Since the  
Water Hardness Selector is off, the machine will not remind you  
when to decalcify. This could clog and ruin your machine.  
• Remove the old filter. The cartridge is environmentally friendly.  
Dispose it with your regular household trash.  
• Make sure the water tank is empty.  
• Remove the new cartridge from its bag.  
• Open water container lid and pull up the holder for the

you when it is time to decalcify. Turning off the monitor requires  
you to use distilled water only or the Water Filter Cartridge  
(chapter 16a).  
Water is heated inside the machine. With use, this leads to  
calcium deposits forming inside the machine. The display will  
remind you when it is time to perform a decalcifying cycle. The  
machine is set to level 2 (medium hard water). If you have  
harder water you need to set it to a higher level. If you have  
softer water you can set it to level 1. If you are not sure about  
the hardness of your water, ask your local water company for  
the "Water Hardness in Grains."  
HARDNESS LEVEL 1: grains 2-9  
HARDNESS LEVEL 2: grains 10-19  
HARDNESS LEVEL 3: grains 20-29  
HARDNESS LEVEL 4: grains 30+

stones can be found in with coffee beans. Small stones will be  
processed through the burr grinder without any harm (the stone  
will end up in the used coffee container).  
• Remove water tank, rinse and fill with fresh water and replace.  
However larger stones can block the burr grinder. The noise of  
the grinder will become very loud and the grinder will block. In  
this case please call our Customer Service: 1-800-220-5701.

24. TROUBLESHOOTING  
C. INSUFFICIENT FROTHED MILK PRODUCTION  
Reason: Milk is initially not cold enough or your milk is not  
suited for thick frothing.  
Solution: Make sure milk is cold. Use a different type of milk.  
Skim milk will produce the thickest and longest lasting froth. Full  
fat milk will produce less thick froth. See chapter 14.  
Reason: The components of the frother are not assembled  
properly, or the components are clogged with hardened milk, or  
one or more of the components is missing, or the steam nozzle  
is clogged.  
A. NO COFFEE COMES OUT OF THE COFFEE SPOUT  
Reason: Beans in bean container are not feeding properly into  
the grinder because they are stuck together.  
Solution: Stir beans before grinding and while grinding turn the  
grinding selector to the coarsest setting. See chapter 7.  
Reason : You used ground coffee in the ground coffee funnel.  
The ground coffee was too fine.  
Solution: Use ground coffee which is ground somewhat coarser.  
Reason : No water is transported through the system.  
Solution: Remove water container and make sure that the con-  
necting valve is free of any particles (like a coffee bean etc).  
Reason: The ground coffee funnel or the internal brewing chamber  
is clogged.  
Solution: (See chapter 15)  
a. Remove frother. Check that steam comes out of the steam  
nozzle. If not, use a needle and clear blockage from inside  
steam nozzle.  
Solution: Place a large cup underneath the coffee spout. Push  
the Rinse button (Fig. 3f) until the display shows RINSE. Push the  
Dial (Fig. 3e) RINSING. READY. Repeat the process if necessary  
until the blocked coffee is pushed into the used coffee container.  
b. Clean all other frother parts and assemble properly.  
c. If any parts are missing call Customer Service:  
1-800-220-5701 or use the enclosed mail order form to order  
the missing part.  
D. GRINDER MAKES AN EXTREMELY LOUD NOISE;  
NO BEANS ARE GROUND  
Reason: A stone is blocking the burr grinder.  
Solution: Call customer service: 1-800-220-5701.  
B. THE DISPLAY READS "FILL WATER" BUT THERE IS  
ENOUGH WATER IN THE WATER TANK.  
Reason: The low water floatation device (Fig. 7.4) is missing.  
Solution: Within the water tank is a small compartment (like a  
mouse trap). Inside is a small black floatation device. On top is a  
small clear see-through plastic cover. This small plastic cover is  
missing and the floatation device is outside of the small com-  
partment. Check if you can locate both pieces and put it back  
together. If you cannot find them, call 1-800-220-5701. We will  
send the pieces to you FREE OF CHARGE.  
E. THE DRAWER (Fig. 19) DOESN’T PULL OUT OR DISPLAY  
SHOWS MALFUNCTION 8  
Solution: Turn off and unplug machine. Wait a minute. Turn  
machine on and wait until it stops making any noise. Now try to  
pull out the drawer. If this does not work, try the above procedure  
again. If this does not work, call customer service:
