DeLonghi Rivelia vs Jura ENA 4

Q: Is the Rivelia better than the ENA 4?

It depends on your priorities. The DeLonghi Rivelia excels for users who want interchangeable hoppers to switch beans daily, while the Jura ENA 4 is the better choice if you prioritize ultra-compact design for espresso purists.

Q: How do the grinders compare?

The Rivelia uses a Steel Conical, whereas the ENA 4 features a Steel Conical. While both are high-quality internal systems, they are sealed components. To prevent clogging and avoid expensive repairs, we strongly recommend using non-oily, medium-roast beans in both machines.

Q: Which machine is easier to clean?

The Rivelia uses a Removable brew group, while the ENA 4 uses a Fixed system. Generally, removable groups (like DeLonghi) allow for manual rinsing under a tap, while fixed groups (like Jura) rely on automated tablet cleaning cycles.

Buy the Rivelia if you:

Want to switch beans daily with interchangeable hoppers.
Want a removable brew group for thorough manual cleaning.
Love the Bean Adapt Technology for optimized extraction.

Buy the ENA 4 if you:

Drink strictly espresso or black coffee.
Need a powerful machine that fits in a tight space.
Prefer a fixed brew group that cleans itself automatically.

Expert Verdict

"Choose the Rivelia if you value interchangeable hoppers to switch beans daily. Pick the ENA 4 if ultra-compact design for espresso purists matters more to you."
