4. Frothing Milk
(Figures 13 to 18)
Hot steam can be used both for froth-
ing milk for cappuccino and for heat-
ing liquids.
3
For one cup of cappuccino, fill a large
cup up to ½ to 2/3 full with espresso
and then add the frothed milk.
Always use cool, fresh (low fat) milk to
achieve the best frothing results.

beneath the frothing nozzle (Figure
26).
0
Immerse the swivelling nozzle about
half way down inside the container
with the milk to be frothed so that air
can be drawn in unhindered. The swiv-
elling nozzle should not touch the base
of the container to avoid obstructing
the steam outlet.

after frothing milk to “blow clear” the
swivelling nozzle. Then clean any milk
residues from the swivelling nozzle
using a damp cloth. Move the movable
metal tube up and down during this
process.

longer visible. As you do so, carefully
push against the grip for adjusting the
height of the steam nozzle.

Pour cold milk into the container sup-
plied. If you are frothing milk from the
container supplied you do not need the
flexible hose. The milk container is
attached directly to the frothed milk
spout (Figure 15).
3
You can also suck up the milk directly
from the carton using the flexible hose
(Figure 2/E). However, the milk carton
must not exceed the height of the milk
frothing nozzle. The flexible hose must
be inserted down into the milk carton.
0

nozzle and insert the other end of the
flexible hose into the cold milk (Figure

Important:
Using the knob for regulat-
ing the froth (Figure 2/A) you can set
the amount of froth (more or less
added air) and the temperature of the
milk to your taste (Figure 16/A, B, C).
To do this turn the knob slowly to the
right or to the left until you achieve
the desired result.
