Olympia Express in Orinda
Olympia Express coffee equipment in Orinda.
Orinda's hillside estates and long-held mid-century homes often have carefully remodeled kitchens with a separate coffee station. A Cremina leaves room for grinder and tools; a Maximatic adds pump brewing while keeping Olympia Express's compact proportions.
The $250 deposit includes pickup, bench diagnosis, and return delivery and is not credited toward repair. Extra bench time is $150 per hour. Diagnostics can take up to a week; most repairs run 3-4 weeks. That is exactly why I recommend preventive maintenance: a maintained machine does not sit in a repair queue for a month.
I plan pickup around the correct hillside entrance and secure the lever before the drive through the Caldecott corridor. Mineral tracks around the sight glass and steam valve are read under pressure, not assumed to be a simple gasket leak.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- Piston seals and lever linkage. A stiff or uneven pull can start at the piston cups, return spring, or linkage. I inspect the full lever path so a fresh seal is not asked to hide worn hardware.
- Steam valve and stem packing. A drip at the steam wand may come from the valve seat, stem seals, or old packing. I test it hot and replace the worn sealing parts.
- Sight glass and boiler fittings. Sight-glass seals and heated fittings leave clear mineral tracks when they leak. I pressure-test the boiler and replace only the fittings that fail.
