Bellman 50SS Stovetop Steamer
The Bellman 50SS allows you to steam and pour velvety micro foam like a pro barista.
Comparable to most local cafes, the double hole steam wand is designed to create silky, creamy milk that is both sweet and smooth. You can say goodbye to thickened foam bubbles commonly created by electric milk frothers. The Bellman 50SS is an affordable option that can be used either at home, out travelling or camping.
QUICK SPECS:
- Powerful Two Hole Steam Wand
- 18/8 Stainless Steel Construction
Steamed Milk in 3 Easy Steps
Preparing the 50SS
- Add water to the unit to the half way mark.
- Use boiling water to speed up the heating process.
- Place on medium-high heat.
- Ensure heat source is not larger than the base diameter.
Reaching Correct Steam Pressure
- Keeping the steam wand open, heat the unit until steam begins releasing.
- Close the steam wand and continue to heat for 1-2 minutes.
- Continue to heat until strong steam pressure is released from the steam wand when open.
- Periodically open the steam wand to check.
- When strong pressure is releasing, maintain pressure by adjusting the heat or removing to keep at that level.
Milk Steaming
- Fill a milk jug with 1/3 to 1/2 full milk.
- Place the tip of the steam wand just below the surface of the milk.
- Slowly open the steam valve until there is a strong flow of steam.
- Keep the tip of the wand near the side of the jug to create a vortex in the milk. As the milk froths, lower the jug to keep the tip just below the surface.
- If you do not hear a hissing sound or it turns to a deep rumble the wand is too deep.

It took me a little practice as the stream wand is fixed and doesn’t swivel. I can now consistently create a very smooth micro foam using whole milk. I use it every day. When you use this you have to remember the kettle generates steam pressure and the top has to be very tight. Also the exterior gets very hot so it’s not to be used around children. The only thing I wish were different is the diameter of the kettle. I would like it to be larger because it’s a little tippy on the stove grate. Even with the caveats I still give it a 5 because it works so well for me.

Great option for steaming milk for espresso if you have a manual lever machine and want a milk steamer that rivals an automatic espresso machine. It heats the water quickly on the stove top and is easy to use and clean. I give the steam wand a quick wipe down and purge soon as I’m done and haven’t had any issues. The price is right and it works well for steaming.

Maybe I'm spoiled. I volunteer as a barista at a local homeless shelter. That place has a real espresso machine with a super powerful steaming wand that steams milk in maybe a minute or two. I've run this full blast for ten minutes and it barely accomplishes anything. For what they charge, I think it should do better.

Pretty good and powerful stovetop milk steamer and good for those who like to not use any plastic, however my unit has rusted within a matter of a few months with only 1 use per day and gentle water washing after. And no it is not just residue on the unit, I have tried everything to remove it and it hasn’t budged. I’d like a replacement unit sent to me please!

This steamer was able to give me amazing milk texture for latte art consistently with each drink I made compared to the small ones built into machines that always change pressure randomly. Only complaint I have is the pain it is to remove and clean the milk if not wiped fast enough and ends up layering after a few lattes..

I think the Bellman products are great quality. This was a super cool option for me, as I really didn't want to spend the money on a full espresso machine and I really hate coffee! I know it's silly, but I only like lattes.For some weird reason I'm also picking things here and there to kind of do in a more craftsman style or non-electronic type of manner. This really fit the bill as it's portable, I can take it camping or traveling, and I plan on using it every day in my home.After testing, I am returning this unit, because I realized I wanted to go for the full espresso plus steaming wand by Billman. (25P?) I have a little moka pot that I was going to be using, I'm returning that too. The quality on this is awesome and it does the job. If you've never used a wand to steam milk before, it does take a little bit of practice. Also, I will admit this was a tiny bit awkward to use while it was heating over my stove. I am going to see if the little silicone heat mits I got with my airbake oven will pop on (and stay secure) on the parts that stick out, as to reduce them heating so much while in use.I also wish the directions that came with the unit were a little more comprehensive, I have a few unanswered questions, and I hate watching videos. Mainly, I'm assuming filtered/demineralized water is best? Also important, can I leave the unboiled water in the unit to use the next day? I really hate wasting water, especially if it's my RO.=)I'm actually considering getting a little cast iron burner to use this with on my kitchen counter, and then I'll have that burner for other situations (when I cook a lot of foods at once, if I'm traveling and I want to take it with me for my perfect coffee, maybe when camping if I get my little solar generator.Thanks for a terrific product!

This is my second purchase after 4 years. The first was still working but some metal was starting was corrode. I love love love the steamed milk this thing can produce. It’s a learning curve, but once you have it down, it’s soooo silky. Not a bubble in sight once you know what you’re doing. Watch videos on this to get the idea, but how much foam you like will be more customization. Some parts will need to be replaced occasionally, but they have also upgraded some pieces like the basket in this newest version, so that should help. You *will* need to keep up with cleaning the steam wand, and I’ve never seen a video address this properly, so the biggest part of keeping the milk from building up on the inside and outside is opening the wand to shoot the milk out *immediately* after taking the wand out of your milk pitcher, and then immediately using a paper towel or washcloth that has been soaked in cold water to rub down all sides of the wand. Be careful to securely hold the steamer while doing it (I like to push down on the top knob) so the wand does not move too much when cleaning. The wand is the easiest part to break on this, so be gentle with it. Then bleed the steamer when you’re done wiping it down unless you have more coffees to make that day.Two other tidbits: the place I’m living in has a stovetop with pressure sensors, and they don’t work with this because of the dip in the middle on the bottom I assume. It should work great on other stovetops, and I’ve always used it with an induction cooktop.It also gets very very hot. Avoid touching any of it other than the valve on the wand, the knob, or the handle. If you let it sit on the heat too long, the knob will also get hot. I have burned myself many times, but I’m bad about this with anything.With all that said, this makes milk that makes you feel want to make coffee at home rather than get it anywhere. It will always be better than the alternatives once you get the hang of it. And the price tag is extremely reasonable considering the price of getting coffee out.
