2. Determine the amount of milk needed based on the number of cups
of coffee brewed or on the size of the milk jug.
Tip : Remember that the volume of milk increases during frothing.
3. Pour cold, cooled down milk into a stainless steel jug filling it up to 1/2
or 2/3 of its capacity (14) .
Tip
: Store a stainless steel jug with milk in a fridge so that the milk
is well cooled down. Remember not to rinse the jug with warm water
before use.
4. Rinse the steam wand (C) by placing a dish under it (C) and by
turning the regulator knob (K) into the steam position (12) . Turn off
the steam by turning the regulator knob (K) into position 0 (13) .
5. Move the steam wand (C) to the side of the appliance and attach the
milk frothing attachment (D) onto the steam wand (C) .
6. Immerse the steam wand in milk so that the wand is about 1/2 cm
below the surface and activate steam dosing by turning the regulator
knob (K) into position (15) (16) .
7. Hold the frothing jug at an angle so that the steam wand sits in the
jug and lower the jug until the end of the steam wand is immersed just
below the surface of milk. This will start the milk frothing process.
Warning : Do not allow an uneven outflow of steam, or the froth will
not be properly aired. To avoid it, lift the jug so that the steam wand is
deeper immersed in milk. Remember that the ideal texture of milk is
soft, smooth froth.
8. The moment the milk has warmed up and frothed, the level of milk
in the jug will start rising. If this happens, start lowering the jug but
always keep the end of the steam wand immersed just under the milk
surface.
9. The moment froth has been obtained, lift the jug so that the steam
wand is in the middle of milk.
Tip : The amount of froth required will change depending on the type
of beverage prepared. E.g. a cappuccino requires more froth than
a coffee beverage on the basis of an espresso served with steam
frothed milk.
10. Immediately after milk has been warmed up to 60-65°C, turn off the
steam by turning the regulator knob (K) into position 0 (17) .
Tip : If you do not have a thermometer, a good indication of reaching
the right temperature is if you cannot keep a hand against the jar for
longer than 3 seconds.
Important
: Do not boil the milk.
11. Remove the jug and take the frothing attachment (D) off the steam
wand (C). After each use, clean the wand in warm water with the
addition of washing-up liquid. Clear all its outlets. Promptly wipe the
steam wand (C) and its end with a clean damp cloth and rinse with
a small amount of steam.
12. Holding the jug in one hand tap it lightly on the table so as to release
air bubbles and then move the jug in a circular motion until milk gets
shiny and there are no bubbles in it. This will help obtain a uniform
texture of milk and froth.
USING THE HOT WATER FUNCTION
The hot water function is perfect for preparing the long black drink
(espresso diluted with hot water), hot chocolate and for filling a coffee
plunger or a tea pot.
Warning : Before using the hot water function, check that the milk frothing
attachment (D) has been taken off the steam wand (C) .
1. Fill up the water tank with cold water (1) .
Turn on the espresso machine (3) . It is important that the espresso
machine is in the
hot water
mode when using the
hot water
function,
which means that button is pushed in (M) (the on/off pilot light is
illuminated (L) ), and the hot water/steam button (B) is in the
“pushed out” position (the standby mode pilot light (N) is not
illuminated) (18) (19) .
2. Place a cup or a dish under the steam/hot water wand and activate
the hot water function by turning the regulator knob (K) into position
(20) (21) . The standby light (N) is illuminated during this process.
3. The moment the cup or dish has been filled with the desired amount
of hot water, close the hot water by turning the regulator knob (K) into
position 0 (22) .
4. Take out the cup or dish and leave the steam wand (C) over the drip
tray (I) .
SAMPLE ESPRESSO RECIPES
ESPRESSO (SHORT BLACK)
Espresso is a strong concentrated coffee with a layer of foam on the surface known as” crema” (a layer of brown foam).
Espresso is the basis of all coffee beverages. Its varieties are obtained by adding different amounts of milk and froth.
●
Prepare a glass 90 ml espresso cup or a small coffee cup.
●
Pour in a single espresso (30–35 ml).
LONG BLACK
Standard espresso with the addition of hot water, served in a regular coffee cup or in a mug. Hot water is added first so
that the layer of “crema” is kept.
●
Prepare a 190 ml cup.
●
Pour in a single or double espresso.
●
Add hot water to taste.
MACCHIATO
Macchiato, the name comes from an Italian word meaning a “spot”. Traditionally served as a standard espresso with
a spoonful of milk on the surface and a little foam (“crema”) in the middle.
●
Prepare a 90 ml glass espresso cup or a small coffee cup.
●
Pour in a single or double espresso.
●
Add a spoonful of milk on the top.
FLAT WHITE
Another favourite coffee beverage is a flat white, a beverage on the basis of espresso, with steam frothed milk, served in
a regular coffee cup or in a mug. The layer of frothed milk should be 2 mm thick to insulate the coffee.
●
Prepare a 190 ml cup.
●
