    Overview

    The Breville Bambino Plus is a compact though capable espresso machine. It doesn’t let its size get in the way of producing a quality cup of coffee that tastes like what you would order at your favourite cafe.

    Grind your beans into the 54mm portafilter, designed to hold 19 grams of ground coffee. This dosage is key to brewing balanced espresso. The machine’s ThermoJet heating system means heat-up takes a speedy three seconds. The automatic steam wand will texture milk for smooth, creamy results, allowing you to show off your latte art skills. Switching from espresso extraction to steaming milk is instantaneous, so you don’t have to wait around.

    Size is no impediment to quality espresso with the Breville Bambino Plus, a great coffee solution for those short on benchtop space.
    Compact design

    This machine’s economical footprint means it can be integrated into any interior design. You also have more storage options for when you’re not using the machine, but a coffee hiatus sounds somewhat mythical, so you may never get to packing it away.

    Microfoam texturing

    Microfoam is steamed milk that is velvety smooth in texture, ideal for creating latte art. What you want is foam with small, even bubbles (unless you are trying to make a cappuccino). This machine’s 1600-watt element gives you adequate steam to create rosettes, hearts, and more. Microfoam will also enhance the overall flavour of your cup.

    Heats up in three seconds

    This machine heats up and is ready for brewing in just three seconds. You’ll be cupping your espresso in your hands before you can even self-diagnose a case of the Mondays. If you’re making a milk coffee beverage, such as a latte or a cappuccino, switching from brewing to steaming is instantaneous.

    Professional portafilter

    The portafilter is 54mm wide and holds up to 19 grams of ground coffee. These numbers are optimum for producing coffee that tastes like your usual order at the local cafe.

    The Sage Bambino Plus is a compact and easy-to-use espresso machine that produces excellent coffee drinks. Many users praise its quick heat-up time and automatic milk frothing, which allows them to make high-quality lattes and cappuccinos at home. The machine is also noted for its good value compared to more expensive models. However, some users experienced issues like leaks and inconsistent performance, and a few mentioned the small drip tray and water tank as downsides. Overall, the majority of reviewers are very satisfied with the Bambino Plus and recommend it, especially for beginner home baristas.

    Great machine but unrelenting emails to review the product
    It’s a great little machine. But while most folks would email you once for a review that you can ignore and move on, expect non stop emails from Breville until you submit a review like this.

    Ideal and compact.
    I bought the Bambino plus in October as a gift to myself and have used it everyday without any issues. Ideal for cappuccinos which I love. It is compact so doesn't take up too much worktop space in the kitchen. I would highly recommend.

    Coffee shop quality at home
    I got this Bambinoa little over a month ago! The coffee is top notch! I thought it was going to be difficult but it was not!

    Questions & answers

    Hi there, may I please know the voltage and amperage the machine is designed for? I am considering purchasing one while in Sydney to bring back to the US and want to be sure it can operate fine. Cc1097 · 2022-10-04
    Good Afternoon, Thank you for this product question this model is rated as 240volts and 1600watt power required and is designed to be used within Australia only, this would draw too much power to be used in the USA best option would be to buy this type of unit in the US when you return. I hope this information will assist you when shopping here with us at Appliances Online. Colin Jones, Appliances Online
    Can you tell me the difference between the breville bambino plus sea sal machine and the breville bambino plus espresso machine? There’s a price difference but they seem exactly the same. Thanks. Janet · 2022-02-03
    Good Morning Thank you for this product question, yes these are the same except for the finished colour: BES500SST is the sea salt colour, BES500BSS is brushed Stainless Steel finish.
