- Automatic Milk - The Breville Bambino Plus Features automatic milk steaming for easier lattes or cappuccinos.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in the Bambino Plus and Encore ESP bundle?
Is this a good espresso setup for beginners?
Can the Encore ESP grind for pour over too?
What size portafilter does the Bambino Plus use?
This coffee system has been a wonderful addition to my small kitchen. I save so much money in making my own lattes. The taste is far better than Starbucks and Dutch Bros.
Great entry level setup for home! The grinder gives granular control and the Breville espresso machine is very forgiving. Have been making delicious lattes at home with locally roasted beans!
This bundle is as advertised; grinds and makes good coffee, good instructions and easy for a new user to learn
My first manual espresso maker. Took me about a week to dial in my grind and tamping pressure to get an enjoyable shot. Then enjoyed the challenge of changing beans and trying to dial in again. After nine months, machine stopped pushing water through the portafilter. Instead it flows out of the crevices of the machine. I researched and cleaned all the parts, to no avail. It was fun to try while it lasted, but I expected at least five years from the machine. I would not buy it again, and am inclined to avoid the brand altogether.
We bought this based on advertising from Seattle Coffee that this was easy and for beginnings. We have been at this for 2.5 hours and have yet to get the extraction right. The grinder does not come with any sort of measurement system based on one or two cups. This is a trash machine and feels like false advertising
Amazing espresso machine & esp. grinder combo for extracting a perfect shot right out of the box with minimal effort. The auto milk frothing feature on the Bambino Plus is an added plus. Being able to pull a double shot of espresso and then right away froth the milk is super efficient. Highly satisfied with this bundle!
Easy to use and makes incredible drinks. 5 stars all day
