Categories : Espresso Machines
SKU : BRE-ESP-023
The Breville Bambino BES450BSS is for espresso lovers who want third-wave specialty coffee at home but don’t want to wait. Its innovative ThermoJet heating system reaches optimal extraction temperature in just 3 seconds—no warm-up needed. Using a 54mm portafilter that holds 19 grams of grounds, it extracts full-flavored espresso with a rich crema. The automatic steam wand lets you adjust milk temperature and texture, delivering handsfree microfoam for lattes and cappuccinos. Digital PID temperature control ensures water is delivered at precisely the right temperature, while low-pressure pre-infusion extracts all the flavor evenly.
Feature deep-dive: The Bambino boasts a 1560W power draw that powers both the ThermoJet heater and the steam system. The compact footprint measures 12.5 x 6.3 x 12.2 inches, fitting under most cabinets. The 54mm stainless steel portafilter accepts both single and dual wall baskets (included: 1-cup and 2-cup). The automatic steam wand offers adjustable temperature (140°F–170°F) and texture levels (from thin to velvety). The water tank holds 47 oz (1.4 L) and is removable for easy filling. The PID controller works in 2°F increments for precise extraction.
Most compact espresso machines require a 5-minute warm-up and lack a true automatic steam wand. The Bambino sets a new standard with its 3-second heat-up time and handsfree milk texturing. The automatic feature eliminates the learning curve of manual steaming, while the digital PID control ensures consistent extraction. It’s the ideal choice for time-pressed coffee lovers who refuse to compromise on taste.

Traditional espresso machines in this price range demand patience—a 30-second warm-up that feels like an eternity when you’re craving coffee. The Breville Bambino shatters that expectation with its ThermoJet system: ready in 3 seconds. For busy mornings, that’s the difference between a rushed drive-through and a satisfying home brew.
The steam wand isn’t just an accessory; it’s a fully automatic tool that textures milk to your preference. Adjust temperature from 140°F to 170°F, and dial in foam from thin (for a flat white) to thick (for a cappuccino). The wand automatically shuts off when done, preventing accidental over-steaming.
The 54mm portafilter with 19g capacity draws out more flavor than standard 50mm baskets. Low-pressure pre-infusion ensures even saturation, while PID control locks in temperature within 2°F. The result is a balanced shot with crema that rivals your local café.
At just 6.3 inches wide, the Bambino slips into tight spaces. Its 1560W element supports both heating and steaming simultaneously. Backed by a 1-year warranty, it’s a reliable partner for your coffee journey.

Three seconds is not a joke. It's ready before I've even ground my beans. Good for busy mornings.
I had doubts about a small machine but the shots are solid. Steam wand works well for milk drinks. Only wish the drip tray was bigger.
I live in a studio. This fits on a tiny counter. And makes espresso as good as my local shop. Love it.
It's fine for basic espresso. The portafilter is 54mm which means accessories are harder to find. But it's consistent once you dial in.
Love it.
I upgraded from a Dedica. The steaming is so much better. Actual microfoam instead of big bubbles. Happy with the purchase.
The machine works great. But a plastic tamper at this price feels cheap. I bought a metal one separately. Shots come out great with that.
The steam wand gives nice microfoam. I'm learning latte art and this machine makes it easier. Very happy.
Got this for my son's college dorm. He says it's perfect for his morning coffee. Not huge but works great.
Had it for two months now. No issues. Makes a nice cappuccino.
