How to use multiple backing devices

Hello,
If I'm understanding Documentation/bcache.txt correctly, I should be
able to use one SSD to cache multiple spinning disks.
However, I'm at a loss of how to set this up in practice. I believe I
need to do
make-bcache -B /dev/sda # spinning rust
make-bcache -B /dev/sdb # spinning rust
make-bcache -C /dev/sdc # ssd
and then something like
echo <CSET-UUID> > /sys/block/bcacheX/bcache/attach
But what do I have to put for X, and what for CSET-UUID? I believe for
at least one of those values I will have two options (because there are
two backing devices).
Thanks,
-Nikolaus
