Everyone should be aware that if you follow the instructions in this video Bellman customer service will tell you that you are using the machine wrong. They told me the coffee recipes are wrong and I should not use 30g or 50g with 3 level of water, I should only use 15g of coffee for 3 level of water. Also customer service told me espresso grind is too fine and I should not use it, the finest grind I should use is the grind setting for a moka stove top which is also different than what is in this video. Customer service was slow but very nice but unfortunately told me multiple times what this video says is wrong. FYI.

304 stainless isn't magnetic so won't work well on induction. I know it can attain some magnetic properties when cold formed, so you may have some luck brewing on induction. But a properly magnetic stainless like 410 would be a better choice, or a laminated-on ferrous stainless base plate.

@@rodshehan3886 The whole internet (and my experiments with a magnet) say 304 is not magnetic. At least not enough for induction. Here's an example: Austenitic stainless steels - the majority of stainless steels falling into this category are non-magnetic due to high levels of austenite. Despite the fact that some of the alloys, such as grades 304 and 316, contain iron, these materials are non-ferromagnetic. It is the crystal structure that is important for magnetic properties. By using a thermal process or work hardening (e.g. bending, drilling, etc) austenitic stainless steels can be partially magnetic, forming ferrite in some areas. As a result, austenitic grades exhibit a slight magnetism at mechanically operated edges like sheets.

Hi I have a much older model that looks similar but no place for a pressure Guage. Wondering if you have any advice on how to determine my pressure in order to extract decent espresso and steam milk.
@bellmanespresso

Through the steam wand 👍 Leave it slightly open - and as soon as you start to see some steam coming out of the wand - it'd be s sure bet it's ready to brew with. Close the steam tap, and give it another 10-15sec to build pressure before opening the brew tap

Okay I hope you actually get back to me. I have the previous version of the Bellman without the pressure gauge. Id like to purchase the parts to upgrade so I can know exactly where the pressure is at and control it better. Currently I listen to the Beleman and check the pressure at the steam tap. I do like the idea of waiting for the relief Valve to open.to.steam the milk as many have suggested. This seems unnecessary and actually a bit dangerous. My suggestion, make an upgrade parts kit available when detailed instructions

I have had my bellman for a while now and I keep having the same problem. It doesn’t seem to matter how much water I put in it, up to the 3,6 or 9 mark, I struggle to get more than half a cup of brewed coffee out of it before it starts spitting and sputtering. Any advice greatly welcome. I have tried brewing at one bar, as suggested in the bellman video, I have also tried it at 2 barb as suggested in this video, still the same result. I just want to be able to make two decent coffees in one go, what am I doing wrong?

I am a bit confused here on my CX25. The markers inside the upper shell are marked as 3, 6 & 9. I do not understand how the water in the bottom shell along with the water to the marker lines would be multiples of 3 of one another. Also, the various rubber seals, especially the conical seal, is not super clear. Mine came with a stainless basket with 4 holes besides the center hole. I am not sure what is the purpose of this basket. I wish there was a better instruction manual with clear drawings. The device is super solid. I use it mainly with a Moka pot as a milk steamer, but would like to be fully knowledgeable of how to use this CX25 as it was intended.

THe water makers are representative of volumes of brewed coffee. # cups, 6 cups and 9 cups. A cup being 20-30ml of brewed coffee. The conical seal must sit on the post under the filter basket to ensure the Bellman works correctly, without it - you wont get a good extraction. The Extra basket is a spacer if you place less then a full basket of coffee in the dosing basket. This will sit on top and maintain the compactness of the grounds during extraction - so to avoid them floating around inside.
