Does anyone know if the EC100 is a significant improvement over the EC50? If so, in what ways?

I would like to post an update to my bashing this unit. I have modified mine by removing the little nozzle under the basket (you need to unscrew the three screws to get to it, it just pops out). This is the main reason for the soupy pucks, weak espresso, and excessive "foam" masquerading as crema.Now, I am pulling REALLY great shots using a blend of Bustelo gourmet (black vacuum packed) and La Rica (green and black vacuumed packed).Put one scoop of Bustelo in the bottom, and top it off with the La Rica, then a light tamp. You will pull the shot for around 25 seconds and have one of the best espresso shots from home on a machine under $500.I know, some of you are saying "you need to grind your own bean for freshness" ...trust me! Try this first, I was not able to get a good enough grind to suit this unit, and I am using a high dollar burr grinder.

Does this machine have aluminium parts?

Yes, this machine has aluminum parts, however, the parts are not in direct contact with the coffee or its constituents

Hi, Margie. I purchased this as a gift, so I no longer have any of the paperwork. Here, however, is the site for the EC50 Instruction Manual: http://www.capresso.com/pdf/EC50IBEnglish.pdf. Hope this helps answer your question. Ginny13

Jura is the company the makes these machines they’re in the web
