The Bambino is a top quality 1 or 2 group espresso coffee machine with semi-automatic or electronic options and is exceptional value for money. It provides an excellent opportunity for bespoke branding, from the UK's only manufacturer of espresso and cappuccino coffee machines.

The Bambino benefits from all the top-class skills, innovative design and state of the art production methods that this world-renowned manufacturer has to offer. Coupled with a Model B, T or Kenia-tron grinder and the economy knock-out drawer, the Bambino will make a stunning addition to any bar, restaurant or coffee shop for a surprisingly low level of investment.

They are available with 1 and 2 groups for making coffee and each machine has a hot water facility and steam tube for frothing and steaming milk. All have large capacity boilers, high-powered elements and are hand built to the highest standards using only the finest stainless steel, copper and brass.

The groups on the semi-automatic Bambino machines are operated by a rocker switch, so the user can control the amount of coffee being dispensed into the cup. Electronically controlled models have unique touch pads with four accurately pre-programmed coffee measures and an override option button. All working surfaces, steam and hot water tubes are made in 304 stainless steel with Zintec powder coated side panels in a metallic anthracite finish. The beautiful Luxury edition features white finish side panels.
