The Breville Bambino delivers serious espresso performance in one of the most compact footprints in the Breville lineup. Despite its small size, the Bambino is capable of producing third wave specialty coffee thanks to the same four key formula used by professional cafe machines — the right dose, precise temperature control, optimal water pressure, and true microfoam milk for latte art.
The ThermoJet heating system brings the machine to optimal extraction temperature in just 3 seconds, so there is no waiting around. A 54mm portafilter with an 18g dose, low pressure pre-infusion and 9 bar extraction deliver full flavoured, cafe-quality espresso, while the powerful manual steam wand creates smooth microfoam for lattes and cappuccinos. The Bambino is the faster, more affordable way to professional results at home.
Key Features
- ThermoJet Heating System: The innovative ThermoJet heating system achieves the optimum extraction temperature in just 3 seconds, so your machine is always ready to brew without the wait. Uses up to 32% less energy annually compared to a Thermoblock heating system.
- 54mm Portafilter with Single and Dual Wall Filter Baskets: Full bodied coffee with rich and complex flavours is created using the ideal dose of 18g, delivered by a professional style 54mm portafilter. Both single and dual wall filter baskets are included, making the Bambino suitable for pre-ground coffee as well as freshly ground beans.
- Low Pressure Pre-Infusion and 9 Bar Extraction: Each shot begins with low pressure pre-infusion to gently expand the coffee grinds before full pressure is applied, followed by high pressure extraction at 9 bar via a 15 bar Italian pump, for a rich, creamy and caramel coloured espresso.
- Manual Steam Wand for Hand-Crafted Microfoam: The powerful manual steam wand is designed to quickly turn milk into smooth, silky microfoam with the texture needed for pouring latte art, giving you a genuine hands-on barista experience at home.
- Simple Interface with Volumetric Shot Control: Convenient one-touch controls for 1 and 2 shot volumetric extraction, steam and hot water make the Bambino easy to use right out of the box, with consistent results every time.
- Compact Footprint: At just 15.9 cm wide, the Bambino is designed to fit comfortably on any countertop without taking up valuable kitchen space, making it an ideal choice for smaller kitchens, apartments or office settings.
- Four Keys Formula: Engineered around the same four key formula used by professional cafe machines — the right dose of freshly ground beans, precise temperature control, optimal water pressure, and true microfoam milk essential for latte art.
- BILT Interactive Setup: Supported by the free BILT Intelligent Instructions app for seamless, step-by-step 3D interactive setup guidance, making it easy to get started and begin brewing specialty coffee from day one.
