How to froth
•
If possible, use cold and fresh milk. Even homogenised milk is suitable- if you prefer.
•
Use a frothing container (made of metal) with a minimum volume of 0.5 litres. The size of the container
should not be too wide. A narrow and high container is perfect.
•
Open the steam valve for approx. 5 seconds to release the condensation water and to create dry steam.
•
Fill
1/3
of the jug with milk and place it under the steam nozzle. The nozzle should be immersed in the
middle of the frothing container, just below the surface.
•
Slowly open the steam handle. Steam pervades the milk.
•
Keep the frothing container still.
•
After a few seconds, you will notice a light suction in the frothing container. Proper frothing begins. Move
the frothing container downwards while the milk level increases. The steam nozzle must be kept just
under the surface of the frothed milk.
•
Attention: When the desired amount of milk froth is , immerse the entire steam nozzle into the frothing
container for a short time and close the steam handle.
•
Attention: Milk proteins “froth”with a temperature up to 77°C.
Once this temperature is exceeded, the milk
does not froth any further.
•
Advice: When milk frothing is finished, slightly shake the frothing container in order make the milk
bubbles ascend to the surface and to get a compact milk froth.
•
After frothing the milk, release steam into the drip tray to avoid blockage of the steam nozzle.
