Cremina, espresso perfection handmade in Switzerland

Handcrafted in Lucerne, the Cremina is one of the most iconic espresso machines in the world. A symbol of Swiss craftsmanship since 1967, it stands for an approach to coffee where every gesture counts and every extraction becomes a ritual.

No electronics, no gadgets, just the purest mechanics in the service of taste.

A lever machine for espresso purists

The Cremina is a fully manual lever machine. It’s a dream for anyone who wants to feel every step of the preparation and control pressure, temperature and extraction time with a watchmaker’s precision.

This level of control gives you an incomparable crema, dense and velvety, and a full body that brings out all the richness and complexity of our Chronic. specialty coffees.

With its solid brass brew group and exemplary thermal stability, every espresso is remarkably consistent. The experience is as tactile as it is about taste: pull a Cremina lever and you’ll understand why some objects become legends.

Swiss elegance at its simplest

The beauty of the Cremina lies in its timeless design, made of polished stainless steel, brass and fine materials. Compact and elegant, it fits into any kitchen while keeping a character all its own.

Every Cremina is assembled by hand, tested individually and then signed by the craftsman who built it. It’s a collector’s piece, passed down from generation to generation and built to last a lifetime.

Minimal maintenance, exceptional longevity

Unlike modern electronic machines, the Cremina has nothing to fear from obsolescence or software failures. Its simple, robust mechanical design ensures an exceptional lifespan, often well beyond several decades.

A few simple steps are all it takes: rinse, purge, clean the group and you’re ready again. The machine is good for thousands of extractions without ever losing performance or precision.

The art of slow coffee, espresso style

The Cremina isn’t made to be fast, it’s made to be right. Every cup asks for your attention, but rewards patience with a rare sensory experience.

It’s the perfect meeting of Swiss craftsmanship and a passion for coffee. A machine that takes you back to the essentials: good beans, good water and the right gesture.

Roasted in Switzerland, with passion and precision

Our coffees are roasted in Switzerland by Jérôme, our master roaster.

Each origin is crafted with precision to reveal its unique aromatic profile, thanks to a gentle and controlled roasting process.

Every batch is tasted and approved before being released, ensuring a coffee of exceptional freshness and quality, worthy of your favourite espresso or filter brew.

Better coffee doesn’t have to be complicated.

Nothing magical, just the right move.
