3. WELCOME TO THE IMPRESSA S AVANTGARDE SERIES
This fully automatic espresso coffee center is completely pro-
grammable and extremely user friendly. With two independent
stainless steel Thermoblock heating systems it can switch from
brewing coffee to frothing milk without any up- or down-time. It
can prepare 1 or 2 cups of excellent, professional quality espresso
or coffee at a time with just a push of a button. The two-step
pressure brewing system - well known in commercial applica-
tions - was adapted and refined by Jura coffee specialists and is
the trademark of each Jura-Capresso coffee center. This two-
step brewing system ensures optimal coffee extraction and will
finish every cup with a rich layer of "crema" - proof for perfectly
pressure brewed coffee. The built-in low-noise, commercial coni-
cal burr grinder grinds beans to the correct fineness (6 settings).
A separate filler funnel lets you use pre-ground coffee. The sec-
ond Thermoblock generates unlimited steam instantly. With the
Dual Frother Plus you can steam and froth (for cappuccino) or
just steam milk (for lattes). The unique frothXpress Plus system
siphons, heats, steams and froths milk automatically. You can
also program a specific amount of frothed/steamed milk and the
machine will always deliver the correct volume. A separate hot
water spout lets you prepare a cup of tea or any other hot bev-
erage in seconds. With four pre-set coffee buttons, an A La
Carte button and the easy-to-use Rotary dial you can brew
exactly the coffee you desire.You can re-program cup size,
coffee strength and temperature. You can select from different
maintenance set-ups. The machine will automatically remind you
when to refill water, clean, change filter or decalcify. A special
section lets you check how many coffees you prepared with the
different coffee buttons.
