Bellman Espresso & Steamer - CX25P

Bellman Espresso

This product is not very good for making espresso. I followed all instructions to the letter and found that the first couple of seconds you get a wonderful espresso with outstanding crema on top. After that you get a fine spray of weak coffee. I will use my standard stove top "mocha style " coffee maker for my espresso. The only thing the Bellman will be used for is frothing the milk. Should have bought the milk steamer.

Takes a few tries but worth it!

Really happy with this espresso machine and steamer. Easier to clean than a French press and now we can enjoy lattes in nature and on the run. It did take me a few trial runs to get the hang of things but it is easy to learn. I don’t personally feel the tiny filter tops are needed and do not use them— you may also want a second person to anchor the pot when first releasing the espresso spout or steamer. Thank you!!

cool

Works great and a lot of fun with a bit of a learning curve but the coffee is strong and hot. Milk frother works really well.
