Cappuccino
Cold, skim milk is best for creating
froth. Ideally it should be prepared in a
cold, stainless steel pitcher.
^
Fill a small, cold, stainless steel
pitcher a third of the way with cold
milk while dispensing espresso.
^
Direct the steam nozzle toward the
drip tray and
slowly
turn the steam
selector counterclockwise.
Any condensed water in the nozzle will
be expelled.
^
As soon as steam appears from the
nozzle, shut the steam off by turning
the steam selector clockwise, to the
"o" position.
^
Position the steam nozzle just below
the surface of the milk in the pitcher
and
slowly
turn the steam selector
counterclockwise.
^
Move the pitcher in circles until a
thick froth appears, then lower the
nozzle deeper into the milk to heat
the rest.
Do not allow the milk to boil. The
foam will collapse and a skin will
form.
