Re-start or
upgrade? Whether or not you are re-opening and recommissioning your existing beverage-making machines after lockdown, or seeking to invest in a new one, keeping an eye on machine developments and beverage quality is as important as ever emphasis the sector’s suppliers. PERSONALISED, SMARTPHONE OPERATION Jura (www.uk.jura.com) says that it is now offering state of the art automatic coffee machine operation via smartphone or tablet – called the Jura Operating Experience (J.O.E., a registered trademark) - with hygiene now being of top priority in coffee preparation in many coffee shops and cafés, they point out. By simply linking J.O.E. to the Smart Connect in your Jura coffee machine via Bluetooth, enjoying the perfect cup of coffee just the way you like it is even easier, claim the company, and is also touch free. Using either text or touchscreen, J.O.E.reg is intuitive, convenient and simple, and with free updates, it means that users can always have access to the latest way of operating their Jura automatic speciality coffee machine. Using a slide control, the J.O.E.reg facility means that users can make their favourite coffees exactly how they like them, tailored to their personal taste, the preferences able to be stored on a smartphone or tablet (names and images can even be given to favourite speciality coffees). Maintenance-wise, if the filter cartridge is worn out, or it’s time for a milk system clean, or the water tank is empty, J.O.E. provides status messages, prompting the operator to take action and enabling them to order the right filter for your automatic coffee machine via the direct link to the online shop, or let J.O.E. guide you through all the maintenance programmes in pictures and text (also helping to achieve TUV-certified hygiene). Got visitors and want to cater to all their coffee tastes? No problem, say Jura. With J.O.E., you can store the personal preferences of others by simply touching the symbols on your smartphone. The different specialities will then be prepared one by one in your JURA automatic coffee machine, and you can also save personalised images. 18 CAFÉ LIFE | APRIL 2021
