As others said it's a faston...
I recently helped a friend of mine with the expresso machine repair.
Be aware that all the wires that are connected to or near to heat sources (heater), should be suitable for high temperatures and so the connectors. Do not use regular Cu-Sn fastons for the heater, they will burn out pretty soon...
We used a silicon insulated wire, rated for 180°C and Nickel coated steel fastons for connections. I got them from Farnell.
Whenever you meet a connection to the hot part of the heater, allways use appropiate high temp. cable lugs or fastons and use stainless steeel bolts/washers/nuts. Never use regular zinc plated nuts and/or Sn coated cable lugs!
