Greetings! Barb & Doug Garrott, also known as Orphan Espresso, are pleased to announce a new relationship with Olympia Express SA! We will be offering full OEM Parts support for Olympia Express machines from the oldest models to the newest, worldwide. We will also have available for purchase in North America, the Iconic Olympia Cremina 2008 Manual Lever Espresso Machine. We believe that our extensive experience in repair, restoration & supplying parts for vintage Olympia Express machines, and our association with Olympia Express, Switzerland, will be a positive step for all of us who love espresso!

Ph 208 835 2969 between 4PM & Midnight, Pacific Time, US (Sunday through Thursday is best to catch us, and we take a break for dinner!)

PS - parts & machines are enroute - we'll have them posted on the website as soon as we get them here! We are not abandoning the Orphans, or changing our advocacy for reuse, revitalize, revive & restore - just adding to it!

Any word on pricing for the Cremina yet?

Hi Chris, not yet - the move has been a bit more disruptive than they expected it would be, so they're sorting things out a bit still. We'll have all the info up, and parts posted as soon as we can! Thanks for asking,
Barb

Congratulation on the new relationship!

All of a sudden the Cremina has gone back into the desired machine list! Well, maybe I should wait to see the price...

I'll be waiting to hear some more.

Congrats, that's great news.

Keep us posted.

Doug and Barb, I couldn't think of a more appropriate couple to rekindle this great line in the US. Good luck with it, and I hope the new Olympia owners have a better business-sense than the previous. Congratulations, and I'm looking forward to hearing/seeing more!

That's wonderful news OE. As soon as you have a price, let us know!

Hi,

I'm new here, but I already feel like at home with all the other coffee-addicts

Congrats, I am glad that good things are happening in your professional life.

Did you already announce your personal-life relationship?

Hi John, welcome to the Home-Barista Forums!

Which personal-life relationship would you like to know about? If it's Doug's, and mine, we've been married for 18 years, and known each other for 18 years, plus 30 days! It was love at first bite...
