This is the complete process involved in pulling a shot on the Olympia Cremina from grind to cleanup. The grinder is an Anfim Best, Tamper Reg Barber 49mm American Curve, Coffee is Cafe Doma Vito's Blend, the cup is Bodum Pavina. I empirically derived this technique over a two year period. Using this technique and good, fresh, properly degassed coffee you should produce great tasting espresso with thick persistent crema. The active pre-infusion (mini pumps) makes for a superior shot, and reduces potential damage to the puck with a second pull by making it possible to pull a full 2oz of espresso on a single pull by taking up volume in the puck with water making a second pull unnecessary. To view an espresso shot close up with excellent crema, see my other video.
