TEXTURING MILK
There are two phases to texturing milk,
stretching, and heating. These two operations
should blend into one with the goal being silky
smooth textured milk at the correct temperature.
• Start with fresh cold milk of choice.
• Fill the milk jug between the min and max level.
• Position the steam tip over the drip tray and turn
the dial from STANDBY to STEAM and wait until
the steam is flowing strongly.
• Turn the steam dial to the STANDBY position to
pause the steam, then within 8 seconds, insert
steam wand tip into milk jug and turn dial back to
STEAM position.
• Insert the steam tip 1-2cm below the surface of
the milk close to the right-hand side of the jug at
the 3 o’clock position.
• Keep the tip just under the surface of the milk
until the milk is spinning clockwise, producing a
vortex (whirlpool effect).
• With the milk spinning, slowly lower the jug. This
will bring the steam tip to the surface of the milk
and start to introduce air into the milk. You may
have to gently break the surface of the milk with
the tip to get the milk spinning fast enough.
• Keep the tip at or slightly below the surface,
continuing to maintain the vortex. Texture the milk
until sufficient volume is obtained.
• Lower the tip beneath the surface but keep the
vortex of milk spinning. The milk is at the correct
temperature (60-65°C) when the jug is hot to
comfortably touch.
• Move the steam dial to the STANDBY position
before taking the tip out of the milk.
• Set the jug to one side, turn dial to STEAM to
purge out any residual milk from the steam wand
and wipe steam wand with a damp cloth.
• Tap the jug on the bench to collapse any bubbles.
• Swirl the jug to polish and re-integrate the texture.
• Pour milk directly into the espresso.
• The key is to work quickly, before the milk begins
to separate.
CAUTION: BURN HAZARD
Pressurized steam can still be released, even
after machine has been switched off. Children
must always be supervised.
Adjusting Water Temperature
Different beans may require different water
temperatures to extract their optimum flavour.
The temperature can be ad/- 2°C in 1°C
increments from the default setting:
1. Turn the machine to OFF.
2. Press and hold filter, 1 CUP and 2 CUP then
press and hold the POWER button.
3. The machine will beep once and display the
current temperature.
4. Press one of the below buttons within
5 seconds:
• Increase 1°C – 2 CUP
• Increase 2°C – POWER
• Decrease 1°C – Manual Dose
• Decrease 2°C – Dose
The machine will beep twice to confirm the
change and return to standby mode.
5. Return to default temperature – press 1 CUP
button.
