The differences that matter
Extraction mechanism: the Cremina uses a manual lever, while the Pro 800 employs a spring lever. Dimensions: the Pro 800 measures 33.9 × 50.5 × 49.2 cm versus the 20 × 27 × 33 cm of the Cremina. Weight: 35.5 kg for the Pro 800 against 10.9 kg for the Cremina. Power consumption: 1600 W for the Pro 800, 1000 W for the Cremina. Unavailable data: the boiler capacity and launch year of the Cremina are absent from official data, as is the operating voltage for the Pro 800.
Which one to choose
Choose Cremina if…
The Olympia Express Cremina targets users who require physical management of the pressure profile. The manual lever mechanism transfers the applied force directly to the coffee puck. The footprint of 20 × 27 × 33 cm and a weight of 10.9 kg allow for installation in reduced horizontal and vertical spaces where a standard professional model would not fit.
Choose Pro 800 if…
The Profitec Pro 800 (launched in 2022) provides mechanical repeatability through its spring lever group, which applies a predetermined decreasing pressure curve. The thermal hardware, consisting of a 3500 ml boiler and a 1600 W heating element, handles multiple extraction cycles. The 35.5 kg weight requires a reinforced work surface.
