Description

Di Pacci — Compact ThermoJet Espresso Machine

Breville Bambino Espresso Machine

The Breville Bambino is a 15.5 cm-wide espresso machine that heats in 3 seconds and still gives you a manual steam wand for real microfoam.

The Breville Bambino (BES450) uses Breville's ThermoJet heating to reach extraction temperature in about 3 seconds, with digital PID temperature control. A 15 bar Italian pump runs low-pressure pre-infusion before a 9 bar extraction through a 54 mm portafilter sized for an 18 g dose. The 1.4 L tank sits at the back of a body just 15.5 cm wide.

Controls are four buttons: 1 cup, 2 cup, hot water and steam. Milk is textured by hand on the steam wand, which is what separates it from the Bambino Plus with its automatic milk texturing. It comes in Brushed Stainless Steel, Sea Salt or Black Truffle.

Key Features of the Breville Bambino

⚡ 3-second ThermoJet heat-up

Reaches extraction temperature in about 3 seconds, so there's no 20-minute warm-up before the first coffee.

💧 Pre-infusion then 9 bar

Low-pressure pre-infusion wets the puck before a 9 bar extraction, which evens out the shot.

🌡️ PID temperature control

Digital temperature control keeps brew water steady from shot to shot.

📏 Small footprint

At 15.5 x 35 x 32 cm, it fits beside the kettle in a small kitchen.

Bambino vs Bambino Plus

Both share the same ThermoJet heating, pre-infusion and 54 mm portafilter. The difference is milk.

Feature Bambino (this machine) Bambino Plus
Milk texturing Manual steam wand Automatic, hands-free
Heat-up About 3 seconds About 3 seconds
Portafilter 54 mm 54 mm
Best for Learning to steam milk yourself Milk drinks with no learning curve

Di Pacci recommendation: Choose the Bambino if you want to learn to texture milk or mostly drink espresso. Don't bother if you want lattes without any practice; the Bambino Plus textures milk automatically.
