Prior to that time, the less elegant prevailing term was "espresso puller." The shift of terminology probably comes, at least in part, from the fact that most espresso machines manufactured since the 1980s no longer require pulling down on a big handle.

"espresso puller" and "kilt" should never be used in the same sentence...especially when it requires the pulling of a big handle...
