Save $100: As of April 25, a new sale on one of the best at-home espresso machines just dropped. The Breville Bambino Plus is available at Amazon for 20% off at $399.95.
It's Monday morning, which means you are feeling in your bones how important it is to have access to a good cup of caffeine. And if a good shot of espresso or two (either in latte form or on its own) is what it takes to get you feeling like a human, we have great news for you.
Those fancy Breville espresso machines you see on TikTok are $100 off at Amazon. That includes the huge Barista Express machine that wouldn't look out of place in a cafe. But if you're trying to save some counter space, some cash, and still get all the joys of having your own espresso machine, the Breville Bambino Plus is a great, more affordable way to go — and as of April 25, it's only $399.95 (down from $499.95) at Amazon. You can also snag it at Best Buy for 5 cents more.
So what makes this compact caffeine creator worth the hype? For starters, it looks great on a kitchen counter, at a 7.7-inches across, doesn't take up a ton of space. But this machine isn't just about the looks. With its five-button interface, all it takes is a simple press to make a single or double shot of espresso, and to set your milk temperature and texture settings before stepping back and letting the automatic frother get to work.
A metal tamper is included to get the perfect compacted grounds, as well as the Razor precision tool for measuring out grounds, two dual-wall baskets for the portafilter, and of course, a steel milk jug that's plenty big enough to steam milk for a latte. The 64-ounce water tank means you won't be refilling it constantly, despite the Bambino's compact size.
Basically, this espresso machine is a step-up from a Nespresso, without being a full jump to the $600 Breville Express. While it's still not the cheapest option out there, but if you're someone who's already inclined to spend at least $4.50 on your iced oat latte every day, then the Bambino Plus could very well be worth it. Plus, it could be a great gift for mom, since Mother's Day is just over two weeks away. Grab it at Amazon and Best Buy for a limited time only.
