Can you use the Bella for hot items, such as making bulleted coffee?

yes I do it all the time,,, the only thing you have to remember is whether hot or cold,,only feel the container to 3/4 full or it may spill over, which is understandable.. there is a natural lift to the product when spinning. If 3/4 full,, when it spins it will look like the container is full.. so if you fill it to the top, when it spins,,all the liquid or food has to go somewhere, plus you don't want it burning out the motor either.. but yes,, you can make bulletproof coffee in it.

Yes w/the carafe. This unit only makes 'less than hot' coffee, so really not true expresso. Had I known, I would have gotten something more substantial.

Hi,As per the manufacture, the Bialetti Musa Stovetop Espresso Maker can be used on an electric stove top.

I am not familiar with the Bella blender but the blades are good with the Magic Bullet. I hope you find your answer.

Yes I have used all of the Lavazza brand coffees in a moka stove top maker with excellent results. I highly recommend Lavazza as the best coffee I have ever used.

Coffee makers with thermal carafes have no heating elements under the carafe, so using a carafe on a heating element might damage the carafe... and, may not be good for the heat element, either.

Yes. You can adjust how much water is used in that single shot as well. In addition, you can make a latte using another button. I've had my machine for over a year and I highly recommend!

Yes. I use a full size latte mug for Double Espresso Latte, and a small cup with the pullout tray for a single shot Espresso or Latte

if you are asking if you can put this carafe on the stove top to heat up your coffee, NO you cannot.

Yes, you can. KitchenAid sells it as an opticional accessory of the same color as the one of your coffee maker.

Yes, you could but I don't think that would be a great idea. This is not a microwave. Unlike a microwave, heating up a cup of coffee would make the cup (and handle) extremely hot. It would take a while as well. We have had our Breville for almost two years with no problems and we love it, but it does not replace our microwave.

You can use the steamer to make any kind of drinks. Just but the pwoder with the milk and steam it and it will be the same as in any coffee shop.

What i meant when I asked if I could use it simply like a teapot was if I could make tea or coffe in another gadget and use it only to serve the them like if it was let's say thermal carafe . Thank you.

If you mean the machine type, yes. I use a stove top espresso pot (Moka pot) and it works great.

No, I would not do that. The double-wall design would not work well for that, and it's not meant to be heated on the stovetop. You boil water in a separate container--a pan or teapot--and then pour the water over the coffee and let it steep. If you need to reheat the coffee, you could put it in a mug and microwave it or heat it in a regular saucepan, but that ruins the taste and I don't recommend it. If you're looking for a stovetop coffee maker, consider a stovetop espresso maker.

Yes, and there is a good video on youtube. In Italy they pore the brewed coffee and the frothed milk at the same time, then spoon the foam on top.But it's really up to you how strong you like it. you will find your sweet spot. I love my machine. And the price was right, thou if I was rich (very rich) I would get a fancy one with an Eagle on top. One note: to clean the grounds underneath, run water thru the brew cycle into an empty cup. Cleans it for the next day.

I would put it in a cup and then heat it. The carafe is thin but gets the job done.
