While the CREMINA is the choice for the gourmet willing to dedicate intuition and free time to his espresso, the MAXIMATIC is the right machine for those who seek a bit more convenience. This electric, semi-automatic espresso machine is so handy and small that it almost fits on a letter-sized piece of paper. This has been made possible thanks to the individual production of all components, ranging from the vibration-isolated pump to the boiler and thus making the MAXIMATIC the smallest espresso machine with a dual circuit heating system in the world. It is so straightforward and easy to handle, it can be used at home as well as in offices, studios, doctors' surgeries and galleries.

Since 1974, the MAXIMATIC has followed the tradition of a classic commercial machine, and can more than match its role model from the catering trade: day in day out, it provides its owner with maximum espresso delight!

Like each and every one of our machines, the MAXIMATIC is also an expression of the philosophy of Olympia Express. These machines are not only built with passion, but also with the know-how and the experience of 80 years of espresso machine manufacturing. That is why the MAXIMATIC is so compact, so reliable and the noise level so low. Swiss made, you know.

Unlike the CREMINA, the MAXIMATIC has two water tanks: the fresh water tank and the boiler. The fresh water tank contains 3.17 pints and can be refilled while the MAXIMATIC is in operation. Via a closed piping system, the water is lead from this tank through the boiler. During the process, it is heated to 212ºF, so that, when it reaches the brew group, it has a temperature of 198ºF -- the ideal brewing temperature for espresso. The boiler (Capacity: 2.11 pints) productes the stream necessary for frothing the milk. Just as with the CREMINA, both the boiler and the fresh water tank are made of high quality chrome steel.

The front is made of high-gloss polished steel. Frame and casing are lacquered with a highly resistant powder coating.

The MAXIMATIC's surface can be used to pre-heat the espresso cups, the tray and the grate can be easily removed and cleaned. Not to mention the illuminated extraction button with the Olympia-Express logo, the water gauge, the extra long steam wand, the thermal protection of the heating element, the mechanic safety valve for the boiler, the high-tech gaskets made of Gore-Tex and Teflon, etc., etc., etc.

The MAXIMATIC'S exceptional manufacturing quality can only be reached, because it remains the engineers' and designers' prime goal, namely to build the perfect espresso machine.
