The Breville or Sage Bambino Plus is one of the most popular little espresso machines on the home barista market. Due to its 3 second heat up time, its powerful 4 hole tipped steam wand, and its inclusion of a 3 way solenoid valve, pressurized and unpressurized baskets, and volumetric dosing make this an attractive unit.

And in my experience so far, the Sage or Breville Bambino Plus has been one of the easiest machines to steam milk on. And what you want to do when you're steaming milk, of course, is you want to get a vortex going in there. First, you want to incorporate some air and then get it really spinning well. And that is the thing that the Bambino Plus does the best.

So what exactly are you sacrificing if you go with the Base Bambino vs Bambino Plus? We'll show you in this comparison! Hopefully this head to head will help you decide whether the Bambino Plus or Bambino is best for your home espresso setup.

while the Bambino Plus adds auto milk frothing with texture/temperature presets (the machine does the timing and sensing).

The presence of the solenoid means that the excess water and pressure is fired off as soon as the shot is pulled, so you get drier pucks that are more satisfying to knock out into the knock box, and if you choke the machine with too fine a grind you don't need to worry about portafilter sneeze.

The Breville Bambino Plus has been a great find for me for all of the following reasons. It's nice and small, but still makes amazing espresso. The water tank holds 64 oz, which is enough for four or five cups of espresso, less if you're adding hot water, but regardless, the tank is easy to fill and small enough to fill directly from my refrigerator water filter.

Let me show you the main reason why the Plus is absolutely worth the extra money. It comes down to the frothing. So, both of them can allow you to do manual milk frothing, but the Plus allows you to do automated milk frothing. You have a temperature selection, three different levels of temperature, and then your frothiness, whether you want it less frothy or more frothy.

Pros: Starts up quickly, good for steaming milk, can manually pull the shot, profusion and small footprint, 3 way solenoid and 4 hole steam wand.
