The Bambino is not trying to be a professional machine. It is small, fast, and honest about what it is: a capable espresso maker that gets out of the way so you can focus on the coffee. The ThermoJet® heating system reaches extraction temperature in three seconds: no warm-up ritual, no waiting. A 54mm portafilter, 18g dose, and low-pressure pre-infusion followed by 9-bar extraction mean the fundamentals are right. The manual steam wand rewards some practice and gives you a real shot at microfoam. For the footprint and the price, very little comes close. It works particularly well with our single-origin espressos that bring enough character to make the effort worthwhile.

 

Key Features: 

  • ThermoJet® heating system — ready to brew in 3 seconds, uses up to 32% less energy than a Thermoblock

  • 54mm portafilter with single and dual-wall baskets for an 18g dose and full-bodied extraction

  • Low pressure pre-infusion followed by 9-bar extraction via 15-bar Italian pump

  • Manual steam wand for hand-crafted microfoam — temperature and texture are yours to control

  • One-touch volumetric control for single and double shots, steam, and hot water

  • Digital PID temperature control for consistent extraction, every time

  • Compact footprint — 19.5cm wide, fits any counter without negotiation
