General Information
The Bellman CX-25P Espresso & Cappuccino Maker is a stovetop model for
household use. The coffee maker has a charming, modern appearance and is made
of heavy gauge 18/8 Stainless Steel and heat resistant Bakelite.
This machine makes espresso style coffee using the steam pressure method. The
espresso is prepared by forcing water through the coffee grounds under moderate
pressure, extracting all of the pure flavour and aroma. Water remains in the machine
after brewing to provide steam for frothing and heating milk. “Cappuccino” is the
name for a coffee consisting of a small ‘shot’ of espresso with a generous serve of
hot frothy milk. You may add sugar, a light sprinkling of powdered chocolate,
nutmeg, cinnamon or grated orange peel, according to taste.
A ‘shot’ of espresso is approximately 30ml in volume and is best served in a
demitasse size cup.
With the Bellman CX-25P you can easily make 3, 6 or 9 cups of espresso by using
the included brew basket ‘Reducer’.
In addition the CX-25P Bellman features a Pressure Gauge. By using the Gauge it is
possible to repeat your favourite brewing method, time after time, and ensure you
have adequate pressure to froth milk for cappuccinos, etc.
Please read the entire instruction manual before using this coffee maker for the first
time. This coffee maker is a pressurised device, and appropriate care should be
taken when operating the machine. Keep the instructions in a safe place and refer to
them from time to time to refresh your memory.
