Great Service Kwana Store
Breville bambino plus is an excellent machine I've added work flow tools and a PESADO Distribution plate which kills the factory one.. got Breville Airscape tins .. home coffee never tasted this good pretty much cafe quality daily .. my Service Agent knew exactly everything about anything in the coffee maker and grinder section . Also bought as package the Baratza Esp grinder that thing is simply the best bang for buck coffee grinder.

Great small machine
Purchased this machine for travelling in a caravan as the bigger machine from home was too bulky to take. Good compact size to travel with and makes good coffee for the size. I would've prefered a slightly bigger coffee basket but that's just personal taste and the milk frother is great with pre-programmed selections. Would recommend this machine for travelling or smaller apartments.

At a glance
The Breville Bambino Plus is a compact manual espresso machine for beginners and everyday home users who want fast heat-up, better milk texturing and a small-kitchen-friendly footprint. Its biggest strengths are the 3-second start-up, automatic steam wand and easy customisation for milk drinks. The main limitation is that it offers less manual control than more premium prosumer espresso machines.

Key benefits
- 3-second heat-up: Reaches brewing temperature in around 3 seconds so you can make coffee with minimal waiting.
- 54 mm stainless steel portafilter: Supports a fuller coffee dose for richer espresso and better performance in milk-based drinks.
- Automatic steam wand: Produces hands-free microfoam milk, making flat whites, cappuccinos and latte-style drinks easier for beginners.
- Adjustable milk settings: Lets you change milk temperature and texture to better match different drinks and personal taste.
- Compact design: Fits more comfortably on limited bench space in apartments, smaller kitchens and caravans.
- 1.9 L water tank: Holds enough water for multiple coffees before needing a refill.
- Low-pressure pre-infusion: Gradually builds pressure to help deliver more balanced flavour extraction.
- Auto shut off: Adds convenience and peace of mind when the machine is left idle.
Q: Can it brew espresso and steam milk at the same time
A: No. Breville The Bambino Plus uses a single boiler style system, so brewing and steaming happen one after the other, not together. That suits one drink at a time, but it is slower if you are making several milk coffees in a row.
Q: Do I need a separate grinder for the Bambino Plus
A: Yes, if you are using whole beans. Breville The Bambino Plus does not grind coffee, so shot quality depends heavily on using a suitable espresso grind. It can also use pre-ground coffee, but the results are usually less consistent.
Q: What size accessories fit the Bambino Plus portafilter
A: Breville The Bambino Plus uses a 54mm portafilter, so tampers, dosing funnels and baskets need to match that size. Accessories made for larger commercial-style group handles will not be a direct fit on this machine.
Q: Is this coffee machine suitable for a caravan or apartment
A: Yes. Breville The Bambino Plus has a compact, lightweight design that suits smaller benchtops, including apartments and caravans. It still needs bench space for the portafilter handle and room to remove the 1.9L water tank.
Q: Does the automatic steam wand still let you control milk texture
A: Yes. The automatic steam wand textures milk hands-free, but you can still adjust both milk temperature and texture levels to suit your drink. It is aimed at easier milk preparation, rather than full manual steaming control.
Q: Can the Bambino Plus make two coffees in one go
A: Breville The Bambino Plus can pour espresso with either a single or double basket, but it is built around one group handle. That makes it practical for one or two cups per cycle, rather than serving a crowd quickly.
