Overview<\/h2>\n

Just like a cafe, the Bambino Plus does not compromise on the four key elements for true third wave specialty coffee. Delivering barista quality performance using a 54mm portafilter with 19 grams for full flavor and an automatic steam wand for milk texturing that delivers true handsfree microfoam at the right temperature, just as you would see from our top of the line the Oracle Touch. With a 3 second heat up time from a cold start, along with instantaneous transition from extraction to steam, you can make a coffee even faster.<\/p>\n

Designed as the easiest entry in walk-up shots, the Bambino\u2019s quick-heat thermocoil will have a hot shot in-hand seconds from start-up. Better, the Bambino\u2019s auto-frothing steam wand magnificently microfoams milk for lattes or creates creamy foam for cappuccinos\u2014all on its own. The Bambino\u2019s combination of size, simplicity, and efficiency makes it an excellent choice for new home baristas.\u00a0 <\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
