As a travelling coffee lover, I’d been searching for the best way to brew my own coffee in my campervan and upgrade from my Bialetti moka pot(particularly as cappuccino/milk in coffee type of coffee drinker). I came across the bellman after a lot of research and had to have one! The quality of the product itself, as well as the quality of the coffee and steamed milk, is exceptional. The micro foam produced by the steam wand is like no other. You can adjust the strength of coffee by using the pressure gauge or changing the coffee-water ratio. I would suggest watching a couple of youtube videos after reading the manual as the manual is pretty basic and missing some info. The basket reducer means you can choose to make 3,6 or 9 cups of espresso. I love that I can make different amounts of coffee in the one pot instead of having different sized moka pots. I’m still getting the hang of it, but the quality of my coffee has been improving with each cup (Again, the YouTube videos really help). Super stoked with my purchase, well worth the money!Read full review

Im a bit of a coffee snob and for me when going camping it’s important to have good coffee. I only just received it yesterday but have made about ten coffees so far. Good points: The material used to make the unit looks very good quality. All the black plastic parts look very heavy duty. The steam wand is a lot better then expected. Once the unit gets up to about 1 bar pressure the amount of steam is more then enough the needed. The coffee is quite good although its a little tricky to get it right. After watching a few youtube videos I got the brew nearly perfect. Bad points: Its quite bulky and the very messy when filling the filter basket up. Its a fine line between a very weak and very strong coffee. It was a little expensive compared to other products on the market. Overall I like the unit and will be more then happy drinking from it while camping off the grid.Read full review

The product's gauge has allowed air or moisture to enter it and it now has fogged up, making it very difficult to read the dial. It is not fit for purpose unless the gauge can easily be read and this is no longer possible. For the price of the item, this should not occur. We have been meticulous in not letting water near the gauge when cleaning the coffee maker and it is only the second time that we have used it. The coffee maker has only been filled to the level of "6". The moisture appeared in a small section of the glass when we first heated up the coffee maker and by the time it was ready to open the valve to let the coffee out, the moisture had covered almost all of the glass and it has remained there long after

Takes a little practice but eventually was able to make some good coffee. Bought it for our trip away in the caravan. Should work well.

Love this coffee maker. Only reservation is that its made for right handed people not left handed so I find the handling awkward.
