The heating
Once you have the milk texture correct, lower the steam wand towards the bottom of
the jug (raising the jug) to complete the heating process.
At the same time you might position the steam wand to one side of the container.
The milk will start swirling. Many tiny bubbles are formed adding texture to the
mixture.
Swirl the milk this way until the side of the milk jug is too hot to touch comfortably.
Turn the steam valve (Fig. A/2) off quickly (with the steam wand still submerged to
avoid hot sprays).
Tap the base of the milk jug lightly on a surface swirling it around gently to
eliminate possible bubbles and to keep the milk and the foam mixed.
You should have a firm, velvety foam on top of hot steamed milk.
Burp the steam wand (Fig. A/1) immediately after using. Open the steam valve
(Fig. A/2) and close it right after.
Clean the steam wand (Fig. A/1) carefully with a non abrasive damp cloth after each
single use without touching it directly with any part of the body to avoid injury or
damage due to the hot surface of the steam wand end nozzle.
Switching off the machine
Turn the main switch (Fig. A/12) to position 0.
If machine is hard plumbed: please close the connection to the mains.
Remove the filter handles from the brewing head and clean them properly (see
page 12).
