Bezzera Nini PM Portafilter Machine – Dual-circuit with manual extraction

Model Year 2026

The Bezzera Nini PM is Bezzera’s most compact dual-circuit portafilter machine and is designed for purists who want to control every second of their shot themselves. Extraction is started and stopped via a push button—no automatic mode, no electronic intervention. This is espresso in its purest form: you control the dose with the scale, the machine controls the pressure.

Made in Italy. Built on an industrial platform.

Manufactured by G. Bezzera S.r.l. in Rosate near Milan. The Nini series features a heated BZ brew group with a 58-mm filter basket diameter and a 1.5-liter copper boiler. Two thermostat-controlled heating elements bring the machine up to operating temperature in about 10 minutes—significantly faster than classic E61 machines. The externally adjustable over-pressure valve allows for adaptation to light or dark roast profiles without opening the housing.

Why the PM version?

The PM (Push Manual) deliberately forgoes electronic dosing and PID control. It is designed for home baristas who pull their shots using a scale and timer, visually estimate shot times, and view extraction as a craft-based process. Those seeking maximum ease of use or precise temperature stability will find it in the sister models Nini DE, Nini PID PM, or Nini PID DE.

Space-saving yet fully featured

At just 25 cm wide, the Nini PM fits even in compact kitchen units or under wall cabinets, with a height of 36.5 cm. The powder-coated stainless steel housing is available in three matte RAL colors: matte white, matte black, and matte green.

Compatibility

Designed for standard single and double filters with a 58 mm diameter. Compatible with accessories such as the Clever Dripper (250 ml). No permanent water connection required—the machine operates with a 3-liter tank and a ULKA vibration pump.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Bezzera Nini PM

What does “PM” mean for the Bezzera Nini?

PM stands for “Push Manual.” The brew is started and stopped manually via a push button—there is no automatic volumetric dosing and no PID control. You decide the shot time and volume yourself.

Who is the Nini PM designed for?

It’s for home baristas who use a scale and timer and view extraction as a craft process. Those who prefer automatic operation or maximum temperature control should opt for the Nini DE or a PID model.

What brew group does the Nini PM have?

The heated Bezzera BZ brew group with a 58 mm filter basket diameter—not an E61. Two thermostat-controlled heating elements reduce the heat-up time to about 10 minutes.

How long does it take to heat up?

About 10 minutes, according to the official manufacturer’s data sheet.

Can I retrofit the Nini PM with a Flow Control Kit later?

No. Bezzera only offers the Flow Control Kit for the PID versions (Nini PID PM and Nini PID DE).

Is a permanent water connection possible?

No. The Nini PM operates exclusively with a 3-liter tank and a vibration pump.

What colors are available?

Matte white (RAL 9016), matte black (RAL 9005), and matte green (RAL 6003).

Does the Nini PM fit under a wall cabinet?

Yes. With a height of 365 mm and a width of just 250 mm, it’s one of the most compact dual-circuit machines on the market.

Is the Nini PM suitable for milk-based drinks?

Yes. As a dual-circuit machine, it can prepare espresso and milk foam simultaneously. The steam power is well-suited for home use.

How does the Nini PM differ from the Nini DE?

The PM offers manual brew control via a push button. The DE adds four programmable cup sizes plus a stop button—extraction stops automatically once the programmed amount is reached. All other mechanical components are identical.
