Choosing the right Jura commercial coffee machine is mainly about four things:
- How many coffees do you make per day
- Whether you want black coffee only or fresh milk drinks
- Whether you need a refillable water tank or a mains water connection
- Whether you require one coffee, two different coffees or decaf
At Jurang, we have supplied Jura professional coffee machines to UK businesses since 2010, and one of the most common questions we get asked is:
'Which Jura machine is actually right for our business?'
This guide simplifies the range and helps point you towards the best Jura bean-to-cup machine for your environment.
Looking for a broader commercial bean-to-cup buying guide beyond just Jura machines? Read our Professional Coffee Machine Buying Guide.
Step 1 – Black Coffee Only or Fresh Milk?
If your team mainly drinks americanos, espresso or black coffee, a black coffee-only machine is often the simplest and lowest-maintenance option.
If you want cappuccinos, lattes or flat whites, you will need one of the fresh milk Jura models.
Black Coffee Only Jura Machines
Jura W4
Best for smaller offices wanting premium black coffee.
The W4 is a compact professional coffee machine designed for up to around 50 coffees per day. It focuses purely on black coffee specialities such as espresso, coffee, americano and lungo, making it ideal for workplaces that do not require fresh milk drinks.
Its compact size, simple controls and low-maintenance setup make it especially popular in:
- Small offices
- Meeting rooms
- Warehouses
- Reception areas
If you do not need milk drinks, the W4 is one of the most cost-effective Jura commercial machines available.
Jura X4
Best for higher-volume black coffee environments.
The X4 is essentially the larger, more powerful version of the W4. Designed for around 80–100 coffees per day, it offers improved capacity, a larger water tank and enhanced commercial functionality.
The X4 is particularly well suited to:
- Large offices
- Self-service coffee stations
- Car dealerships
- Catering counters
Like the W4, it is black coffee only, but it can optionally be paired with a separate Jura milk frother if occasional milk drinks are required.
Fresh Milk Jura Coffee Machines
If your business wants cappuccinos, latte macchiatos or flat whites, these are the models to consider.
Jura W8
Best for smaller offices wanting milk-based coffees.
The W8 is Jura's compact fresh milk commercial machine, designed for up to 50 speciality coffees daily. It offers 17 drink options including cappuccino, latte macchiato and flat white.
It is ideal for:
- Small to medium offices
- Customer waiting areas
- Boutiques
- Studios
- Clinics
The W8 is popular because it delivers premium milk-based coffees while remaining compact, easy to use and relatively affordable compared to larger commercial models.
Jura X10
Best all-round Jura commercial machine for most businesses.
The X10 is one of the most versatile machines in the Jura professional range. Built for around 100 drinks per day, it prepares up to 35 speciality coffees including cappuccinos, flat whites and genuine cold brew drinks.
This machine is extremely popular in:
- Offices
- Showrooms
- Hospitality lounges
- Self-service coffee areas
- Staff breakout spaces
A major advantage of the X10 is that it supports the latest Jura Business Connect and Pocket Pilot 3.0 system, meaning it can integrate with SumUp card payments for businesses wanting to sell coffee.
If you are unsure which Jura machine to choose, the X10 is often the safest all-round option.
Jura X10C
Best for businesses wanting mains water connection.
The X10C is the plumbed-in version of the X10. It offers the same drinks menu, technology and 100-cup daily capacity, but connects directly to the mains water supply.
This means:
- No manual water refilling
- Better for busier environments
- Better suited to self-service locations
- Lower day-to-day staff involvement
The X10C is also compatible with:
- Jura Business Connect
- Pocket Pilot 3.0
- SumUp payment integration
Another advantage is that the X10C can be upgraded with:
- Automatic waste water drainage
- Coffee grounds chute systems
This makes it an excellent solution for unattended or high-volume coffee stations.
Jura GIGA W10
Best for businesses wanting two coffees but without huge volume.
The GIGA W10 is newer to the Jura range and sits between the W8 and larger GIGA machines. It is designed for around 50 cups daily but includes dual bean hoppers and dual grinders.
This allows businesses to offer:
- Regular + decaf coffee, or two different coffee blends
- Different beans for hot and cold brew drinks
The machine also offers up to 35 speciality drinks including cold brew coffees.
The GIGA W10 is ideal for:
- Premium offices
- Boardrooms
- Hospitality lounges
- Businesses where coffee quality and flexibility matter more than very high output
Jura Business Connect
If you are looking for a Jura machine that offers payment solutions and IOT then the current best option is either the X10 or X10C.
The Business Connect is only currently compatible with the Jura X10 and X10C.
The Jura Business Connect is a hardware module that connects compatible Jura professional coffee machines to mobile payment, telemetry and machine monitoring systems.
This feature allows users to seamlessly connect their coffee machines to a variety of popular payment systems, making it perfect for businesses that need flexible payment options.
This free software not only facilitates contactless payments but also incorporates an intuitive accounting and management system. As a web-based tool, it provides a user-friendly platform for streamlining payment processes, enhancing operational efficiency, and improving the overall customer experience.
Whether you prefer credit cards, badges, or mobile payments, the X10 and X10C, when connected to JURA's MDB Interface 2.0, ensures maximum versatility for any payment method.
The Jura Business Connect also offers Jura Pocket Pilot, a powerful and free software solution.
Jura SumUp Payment System
The Jura X10 and X10C can also be integrated with the popular SumUp Payment System using the included Jura Business Connect module, allowing businesses to offer fast and secure contactless coffee payments in self-service environments.
Compatible with card, smartphone and contactless payments, the system works alongside Jura Pocket Pilot for simple payment management and machine monitoring without complicated software installation.

Jura GIGA X3
Best for busy commercial environments up to 150 cups daily.
The GIGA X3 is designed for businesses that need more capacity and faster performance than the X10. It features a larger 1kg bean hopper, larger internal capacities and Jura's commercial GIGA brewing technology.
Ideal environments include:
• Hotels
• Large offices
• Golf clubs
• Busy staff rooms
• Hospitality venues
The GIGA X3 is commonly chosen by businesses that have busy coffee peaks throughout the day and need stronger commercial performance without moving to a dual-hopper machine.
Jura GIGA X3C
Best for high-volume sites wanting mains water connection.
The GIGA X3C is the mains-fed version of the GIGA X3, designed for up to 150 cups daily with direct plumbing into the water supply.
This is often the preferred option for:
- Hotels
- Catering environments
- Large self-service coffee stations
- Customer-facing coffee areas
Like the other plumbed Jura machines, the X3C can also support:
- Grounds chute systems
- Auto waste water drainage
This helps reduce daily emptying and maintenance requirements in busy commercial environments.
Jura GIGA X8
Best for very high-volume environments and two coffee options.
The GIGA X8 is Jura's flagship tank-fed commercial machine, designed for up to 200 drinks daily. Unlike the X3 range, it includes two ceramic grinders and two bean hoppers.
This allows businesses to offer:
- Regular + decaf
- Two coffee origins
- Different roast profiles
The GIGA X8 is ideal for:
- Hotels
- Universities
- Large offices
- Catering venues
- High-volume self-service coffee stations
It is the best option if your site has consistently heavy coffee demand throughout the day.
Jura GIGA X8C
Best for maximum performance with mains water connection.
The GIGA X8C is the plumbed-in version of the GIGA X8 and is designed for demanding commercial environments producing up to 200 coffees daily.
With:
- Dual grinders
- Dual thermoblocks
- Dual pumps
- Direct mains water connection
…the X8C is built for speed, consistency and minimal downtime during busy service periods.
This is typically the best Jura machine for:
- Hotels
- Conference centres
- Busy hospitality venues
- Large offices
- Catering and event spaces
The X8C can also support grounds chute systems, automatic waste water drainage and payment systems such as Nayax making it ideal for fully integrated self-service coffee setups.
