HOW TO FROTH MILK
The steam wand allows you to heat and froth milk. Frothed milk can be added to your
espresso to make a macchiato, cappuccino, or latte, or to other hot drinks—such as hot
chocolate—to give them a light, foamy topping. For a macchiato, add just a splash of steamed
milk; for a cappuccino, add equal parts espresso, steamed milk, and froth; for a latte, add
mostly steamed milk and a shot of espresso. REMEMBER: When making a coee-and-milk
drink, you should brew your espresso first and then froth your milk. Steaming the milk first can
cause the unit to temporarily overheat when switching back to coee mode if residual steam
gets trapped inside.
1.
Fill the water reservoir as directed on p. 13.
2.
Make sure the steam control knob is set to OFF, then plug the unit in.
3.
Press the POWER button and it will illuminate, then press the STEAM button to enter
steam mode. The button will slowly pulse as the unit begins heating, then turn solid when
ready for use. If entering the steam function from standby mode, simply press the STEAM
button and the SINGLE-SHOT, DOUBLE-SHOT, and MANUAL coee buttons will turn o.
4.
Fill a large cup with the desired amount of cold milk and position it under the steam
wand, making sure the nozzle is below the surface of the milk. NOTE: Only use cold milk,
preferably whole, as warm or skim milk will result in a poor froth.
5.
Slowly turn the steam control knob counterclockwise and the unit will begin producing
steam. As the unit steams, slowly rotate and move the milk up and down for an even froth,
always keeping the nozzle below the milk’s surface.
6.
When desired froth is reached, press the STEAM button to exit steam mode. The unit will
return to standby mode with the other four buttons lit, but residual steam will continue
dissipating from the steam wand.
