The Impressa S9 One Touch has an internal battery back-up for
the clock functions. After plugging the S9 OT in for the first time,
turn the Main Power Switch in the back of the machine on (Fig. 1b;
the red indicator light in the ON/OFF button (Fig. 2,B) will illumi­nate). Leave the main power switch on for the first 24 hours to
insure that the internal battery back-up is fully charged.

QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE / DVD

Thank you for choosing this Jura-Capresso product.
Important: Do not try to set-up the Impressa S9 One Touch
without following the set-up steps in chapter 6 - 8. Or use the
Quick Reference Guide.

• Take time to study this instruction manual. It covers many

features of the S9 OT and provides helpful hints and
will enhance your enjoyment with coffee beverages.

• We highly recommend viewing the enclosed DVD.

3. WELCOME TO THE IMPRESSA S9 One Touch

This fully automatic coffee/espresso/cappuccino center is
completely programmable and extremely user friendly. The S9
OT prepares a cup of cappuccino or latte at a push of a button

without moving your cup, brews one or two cups of crema
coffee or espressos at a time, produces unlimited amounts of
hot frothed and hot steamed milk and delivers up to 15 oz. hot
water – all with a push of a button.
With its two independent stainless steel Thermoblock heating
systems it switches from brewing coffee to frothing milk without
any up- or down-time. The two-step pressure brewing system ­well known in commercial applications - 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 adjustable, commercial conical burr grinder grinds
beans to the desired fineness (6 settings). Use pre-ground coffee
with the separate filler funnel. The second Thermoblock gener­ates unlimited steam instantly. Program a specific amount of
frothed/steamed milk and the S9 OT will always deliver your pre­ferred cup size. A separate hot water spout prepares a cup of tea
or any other hot beverage in seconds. With four pre-set coffee
buttons, four pre-set milk beverage buttons, a special A La Carte
button and the easy-to-use Rotary Dial you can prepare thousands
of different coffee beverages with the push of a button. Override
or re-program your favorite coffee drinks. Select from different
maintenance set-ups. The S9 OT automatically reminds you
when to refill water, clean, change filter or decalcify. The
"Information" section lets you know how many coffees you pre­pared with the different coffee buttons. The beautiful housing,
cup illumination and informative LED display make the S9 OT
the most versatile Super Automatic Coffee Center available today.
Enjoy your Impressa S9 One Touch!

3a. BEAN-TO-CUP / “CREMA COFFEE" /

HIGH PRESSURE BREWING

According to the majority of coffee experts, grinding the beans
just before brewing, tamping and brewing under high pressure is
the ideal extracting process for maximum flavor and aroma. Your
S9 OT automatic coffee center will always produce espresso and
coffee with a thick, foamy layer called "crema." The crema traps
the fine aromatics 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 only fresh pres­sured brewed coffee. Experiment with your S9 OT and prepare
the best and most enjoyable cup of coffee!

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: 3 to 4 oz. of hot frothed milk plus espresso.

• Latte: 3 to 5 oz. steamed milk with little or no froth plus espresso.

• Latte Macchiato: 5 to 6 oz. of frothed/steamed milk produced

with pause*, plus one or two shots of espresso. *The pause
separates the milk froth and the milk and allows the espresso
to settle “in between” (chapter 10d).

• Café Mocha: Use chocolate milk then proceed as in making

cappuccino or latte.

Experiment with the size of your milk based drinks. For stronger
coffee taste add more coffee, for more milk taste add more
frothed/steamed milk.

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.
The shorter the brewing time the less caffeine in your cup.
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.
Espresso is not a bean! It's the way the coffee is roasted and

•
prepared. Typical US espresso roasts result in darker beans with
an oily surface. European espresso roasts are medium brown
with no or very little oils on the surface.

All Display Messages Are Shown in

4. PLEASE, DON’T... (or you void your warranty protection):

• Never pull out the drawer during the brewing process. Only
pull the drawer when the display instructs you or when the
display shows COFFEE READY.

• Never fill instant coffee into the bean container or ground coffee
funnel; it will damage the brewing chamber.

• Never fill sugar coated coffee beans into the bean container.

• Never fill frozen beans into the bean container. Do not keep
beans in the freezer. Store them in a dark, airtight container.

• Never fill anything other than coffee beans into the bean
container (no chocolate, rice, nuts, spices, etc.).
