11.  MAKING CAPPUCCINOS AND MILK-BASED 

COFFEES

Please note:

 

To avoid producing milk with poor froth or large bubbles, always 

clean the milk container lid 

(D1)

 and hot water connection nozzle 

(A2)

 as described 

in sections “11.2 CLEAN THE MILK FROTHER BY USING THE CLEAN BUTTON”, “13.7 
CLEANING THE MILK CONTAINER” and “13.8 CLEANING THE MILK CONTAINER/
WATER SPOUT CONNECTOR”.

11.1  Filling and attaching the milk container

1.  Remove the lid (D1) (fig. 1;
2.  Fill the milk container (D5) with a sufficient quantity of 

milk, without exceeding the MAX level of 0.5 l (fig. 18). 
Each mark on the side of the container corresponds to 
100ml of milk; 

Please note:

 

For a denser more even froth, you must use skimmed or partially 

skimmed milk at refrigerator temperature (about 5°C). 

3.  Make sure the milk intake tube (D4) is correctly inserted in 

the bottom of the milk container lid (fig. 19);

4.  Place the lid back on the milk container;
5.  Remove the hot water spout (fig. 20);
6.  Attach the milk container to the connector (A2), pushing as 

far as it will go (fig. 21);

7.  Set the machine up to make coffee (see section “7. HOW TO 

MAKE ESPRESSO COFFEE USING PRE-GROUND COFFEE.”  
up to point 5);

8.  Place the cup for cappuccino or glass for macchiato under 

the coffee spout (A5) and place the milk spout (D3) in the 
correct position (fig. 22).  If you are using tall cups or glass-
es, use the glass compartment (A13) (fig. 23);

9.  Adjust the froth regulator according to the amount of froth 

required and type of milk used (fig. 24);

To make CAPPUCCINO:

 press the 

 button (B9).

To make MACCHIATO:

 press the 

 button(B11).

9.  After delivering the frothed milk, the machine automati-

cally makes the coffee.

Please note:

 

To make hotter cappuccino, we recommend pressing the CLEAN button 

to first heat the milk frother circuits (see following section).

 

When making cappuccino or macchiato, the appliance delivers first 

the milk, then the coffee. To interrupt the current delivery, press the button pressed 
previously.

 

At the end of delivery, to increase the quantity of milk or coffee in the 

cup, just press and hold (within a few seconds) the button corresponding to the drink 
being made.

 

Do not leave the milk container out of the refrigerator for long periods. 

The warmer the milk (5°C is ideal), the poorer the quality of froth produced.

11.2  Clean the milk frother by using the CLEAN 

button 

Each time you make drinks with milk, clean the appliance to 
eliminate all milk residues. Proceed as follows:

1.  Leave the milk container (D) in the machine (you do not 

need to empty it);

2.  Place a cup or other recipient under the frothed milk spout 

(D3);

3.  Press and hold the "CLEAN" button (D2)(fig. 25). The 

 

(B9)  and  

 (B11)  lights flash. When the lights stop 

flashing and the appliance is ready for use again, release 
the CLEAN button. The steam cleans the internal circuits of 
the milk frother.

11.3  Programming the quantity of coffee and 

milk in the cup for cappuccino or milk

The appliance is set by default to automatically deliver standard 
quantities. To change these quantities, proceed as follows:
1.  Place a cup under the coffee spouts (A5) and milk spout 

(D3);

2.  Press and hold the button corresponding to the drink with 

milk you want to programme. After a few seconds, the ap-
pliance starts delivering milk;

3.  Once the required quantity of milk has been delivered into 

the cup, release the button. Delivery stops;

4.  Now programme the quantity of coffee in the cup by pro-

ceeding as for the quantity of milk;

5.  The lights flash for 3 seconds to confirm programming.
The machine is now reprogrammed with the new milk and cof-
fee quantities.

12.  DELIVERING HOT WATER AND STEAM

Danger of scalding:

 Never leave the machine unattended when hot water is re-

leased. The spout becomes hot during delivery. Hold by the handle only.

12.1  Hot water

1.  Make sure the hot water spout (C7)  is attached correctly 

(fig. 6);

2.  Place a cup under the spout (as close as possible to avoid 

splashes);

3.  Press the 

 button (B9). The corresponding light flash-

es and the appliance starts delivering hot water;

4.  Delivery stops automatically.

Please note:

 

To interrupt delivery of hot water manually, press the 

 

button again.

12.2  Changing the quantity of water delivered 

automatically

To modify the default quantity, proceed as follows:
1.  Position a cup under the spout (A5) ;
2.  Press and hold the 

 button (B7);

3.  When the hot water in the cup reaches the required level, 

release the button. The lights flash for 3 seconds to confirm 
programming.

The machine is now reprogrammed with the new quantity.
