Turn off oven; open door slightly . Let cake stand in oven with door ajar 1 hour. Remove pan from water and transfer to rack. Cool. Wrap in foil and chill overnight. (can be made 3 days in advance) Run small knife around sides of pan to loosen cheesecake. Remove pan sides. Beat 2/3 cup cream until stiff peaks form, using a large star tipped bag, pipe around top edge. Decorate with Espresso Beans.
