MAKING CAPPUCCINO

 with the standard plated arm

 

 

 

A.  Start with cold milk, whole or 2% low fat milk work best. You may froth milk in any type 

of container or cup you wish: stainless steel, ceramic or glass. Fill the cup to 3/4 
capacity with milk. Lever should be in the down position. 

B.  Place the steam wand (12), into the bottom of the cup. 
C.  Open the steam knob (4) 3 complete turns by turning counterclockwise. (Diagram L) 
D. Immediately 

lower the cup

 so steam delivery is 

just below

 the top of the milk surface. 

Slowly lower the cup as froth rises, always staying even with the high point of the milk 
surface. Approximate frothing time should be 15 to 20 seconds per 10 oz. cup. 

E.  After the desired amount of froth has been made you may heat up the remaining milk 

by lowering and raising the cup into the steam tube. 

F.  Refer to video for further instructions. 

 

MAKING LATTE/CAPPUCCINO with the Cappuccino Automatic attachment: 

 

 This attachment features the following parts: 
1. Plated steam valve 
2. Black aerator with tube. 

 

To Mount: 

a. Make sure steam knob is in the closed position. Diagram K. 
b. Replace the standard steam arm by lifting the arm clockwise until it stops and remove by    

pulling outward. Diagram M. 

c. Replace with Cappuccino Automatic and lock into place by turning counter-clockwise until 

seated.  

d. Attach the aerator by sliding onto the arm shaft firmly. Diagram P. 

 

To Make Cappuccino: 

Make sure your la Pavoni has reached proper operating temperature. For Professional models 
the needle should show a reading in the green area.  
 
Start with cold fresh milk. Whole milk works best but you may use 1% or 2% also. 
a. Place tube into a milk container. Diagram P. 
b. Hold cup under the black aerator spout. 
c. Open the steam knob 2 complete turns. 

 

When the desired amount of milk has been dispensed, stop the flow of milk by closing the 
steam knob. If you desire hotter cappuccino you may heat up the milk by first closing the 
steam knob, then removing the Cappuccino Automatic attachment and replacing it with the 
standard steaming tube. Immerse the tube into the bottom of the cup, open steam knob two 
turns and heat to the desired temperature, or place your cup in a microwave.  Milk that has 
come direct from the refrigerator will result in cooler cappuccino. Remove your milk from the 
refrigerator a few minutes before using. 

 

To Clean: 

Immediately after every use  

 IMPORTANT 

 

 
After

 EVERY 

use you must clean the tube and aerator.  Follow these simple steps: 

 

a. Place the tube in a cup of clean water. 
b. Position an empty cup under the aerator. 
c. Open the steam knob and allow a few ounces of water to cycle through. Close the steam 

knob when finished. 

 

CAUTION:   BOTH STEAM TUBES WILL BE HOT TO THE TOUCH AFTER USE. USE 

EXTREME CARE WHEN REMOVING. A TOWEL IS RECOMMENDED. DO NOT WIPE OFF 

THE CLEAR FOOD SAFE LUBRICANT THAT APPEARS ON THE SHAFT.  IT IS PRESENT 

TO PROTECT THE GASKETS
