![Vintage Espresso Machine Restoration | Olympia Cremina Project | 02
As we continue the the Year of the Lever theme in 2025, Im getting my sticky little barista paws dirty in a new series as I rebuild a vintage espresso machine: a 1977 Olympia Cremina.
Since this is the first installment of the series, well be taking a look at what we have, what we dont, and getting inside the machine to assess its possible gremlins, and what itll need to once again pull those legendary direct lever espresso shots.

![Managing The Lever for Better Espresso | Lever Diary | 02
Spring lever espresso machines have always had a standard pressure profile worthy of praise, but thats not where it ends. Even though you could let the spring do the work and more often than not produce well extracted, properly tasty espresso nine times out of ten, but we shouldnt sleep on its ability to manipulated to produce even better results in the cup.

![9Barista Mk. II | This Stovetop Espresso Maker Will Outlive Us All
A couple years back I reviewed the original 9Barista, the Mk. I, which ended up being a breath of fresh air in the espresso machine game. Not only did it impress me from an engineering perspective, but also from its pure espresso quality. Fast forward to today, theyve produced its successor, the Mk. II, which on the surface isnt all that different, but does have some updates and upgrades worth covering.
