Product information "Olympia Express Cremina Anthracite Espresso Machine"

Olympia Express


Olympia Express Cremina - an espresso machine in a class of its own.

"The best espresso machine in the world" - that's how the Olympia Express Cremina was described by the Neue Zürcher Zeitung and the New York Times. This is a durable and reliable quality product that you can have repaired if you have any doubts. A brass brew group meets a stainless steel boiler here, with enough capacity for 20 cups of classic espresso.
The special feature: every year, the Cremina espresso machines are made by hand in Switzerland in an absolute small series of no more than 1000 units. Owning such a machine is therefore a highlight in itself. The quality of the espresso machine is reflected in the exclusive material combination of chrome, brass and stainless steel, as well as the excellent workmanship of these raw materials.

Design of the Olympia Express Cremina: elegance meets functionality

Every Olympia Express Cremina is a visual feast for the eyes. The tried-and-tested manual hand lever piston system is used here. This first guarantees pre-infusion in the brewing group, and then conjures up first-class espresso at the optimum pressure of 9 bar - just like fresh from a professional barista. At the same time, the Cremina is pleasantly quiet: All you hear is a singing sound when the chrome steel boiler heats up. The boiler has a thermal fuse that protects against overheating. High-tech seals made of engineering plastics give the espresso machine its typical longevity and perfection.

  • Classic Swiss design
  • Hand lever piston system
  • Chrome steel boiler with 1.8 liter capacity
  • Color: anthracite


With practiced hand movements succeeds delicious espresso for the highest enjoyment

When the lever is pulled open, the machine draws a small amount of water into the piston chamber. This then flows into the pressed espresso powder, allowing it to pre-swell. You then press the lever down to force the hot water through the espresso powder. Once you've internalized the handling and learned the necessary moves, you'll enjoy the finest espresso day after day with the Cremina and its proven extraction process. With the boiler volume, you will succeed in making about 20 espresso shots. Just take a look at the user manual for more detailed information on the most important steps for maintenance and cleaning intervals. The scope of delivery includes:

  • Filter holder with heat-insulated handle and stainless steel double spout.
  • 2 strainer inserts for the single and double portion
  • Stainless steel tamper for compacting the coffee grounds
