How many Espresso shot can you pull with Olympia Cremina SL Spring Lever Espresso Machine? 

Thanks for the comment and question . Here is what I learned,, letting it warm up 20min isn’t enough …40c ish temp is not brew temp . I did notice if I open steam wand the pressure bar gauge drop and rebuilds for first start up of the day. Then if wait for 70-80 range, coffee taste best. After like 1-2 pulls, group head stays at 76ish for the rest of the day. Keep in my temperature is tape to the side so it also factors in room temperature of 24c

I pulled left hand and right hand, no issues. I had conversation with others who owned other brands....LaMarzocco is nice but the deal breaker for me was front loading the water....under the drip tray...They are pretty in all custom colours. Taste wise, you can't go wrong with a lever. I think the 20 shots quoted from manufacturer is straight pull, release. I like to hold mine down 2-20 seconds before I release it. Flushing you don't need if you use a screen disc. I say 14 Cappuccinos or 16 espressos. Steaming does not take much water. I am not sponsored lol BTW, the milk is easier to get to silk level versus my e61. Still scratching my head on that one.

Minimum level.......I found out the hard way, you pull down and nothing happens or it is watery and no pressure....then you look at that window on right side...below minimum, it won't work.

if you are in Canada, might be able to get you a deal
