USING THE STEAM / HOT WATER WAND
Danger of scalding! Brewing may be preceded by small jets of
hot water. The steam / hot water wand can reach very high
temperatures: Never touch it with bare hands. The steam /
hot water wand should never be aimed towards people or
animals. Always make sure that there is enough water in the
water tank.
DISPENSING HOT WATER
1
When the machine is ready place an empty container under the
steam / hot water wand and open the knob.
2
Press the coff ee brew button.
3
Press the brew button again to stop dispensing and close the steam/
hot water knob.
It is recommended not to brew hot water for longer than 60
seconds.
DISPENSING STEAM AND PREPARING A CAPPUCCINO
1
Press the steam button. When the indicator light is steady on, the
machine is ready.
2
Insert an empty container under the steam / hot water wand and
open for a few seconds the knob to release the remaining water until
only steam comes out. Close the knob and remove the container.
3
Place the container with the milk so that the steam / hot water wand
is close to its bottom and open the knob. The machine will start dis-
pensing steam.
Move the container slowly downwards to produce a creamy and
thick froth. We suggest that the milk quantity does not exceed one
third of the container capacity.
4
Once the desired result has been achieved, close the knob and press
the steam button again. Remove the container.
It is recommended not to brew steam for longer than 60 sec-
onds.
If both lights are on, the temperature of the machine is too
high for brewing coff ee. Before performing other operations,
dispense the equivalent of a hot water cup as explained in the
previous section. This will prevent the next brewed coff ee to
taste as ‘overbrewed’ (an almost ‘burnt’ taste: strong, bitter,
and woody).
We suggest using partially skimmed milk, at refrigerator temperature,
in the desired quantity to obtain a thick cream.
