1. The first step in making cappuccino is to make espresso. Therefore, fill the water
reservoir with cold water. Never use warm or hot water to fill the water reservoir.
2. Follow the steps in the “HOW TO BREW ESPRESSO” section at the bottom of page 5.
3. Fill a small stainless steel or ceramic pitcher 1/2 full with cold milk and set next to
machine. Skim or 2% milk will be the easiest to froth.
4. You are now ready to froth and steam your milk. Press the red switch to the on position “I”,
wait until the ready light “ ” becomes solid green. Press the steam button “ ”.
The ready light “ ” will start blinking. Once it becomes solid green again, hold the
pitcher under the frothing tube (which can be swiveled) so that the tip of the frothing tube
is slightly immersed in the milk. Turn the side knob clockwise to the steam position “ ”.
Hold the pitcher for about 50 seconds (for 4oz. of milk) or longer if warmer milk is desired.
REMEMBER: The milk and the pitcher should be very cold prior to frothing.
5. When the milk has doubled in volume, or if you are using a beverage thermometer,
when the milk has reached 38°C (100°F), insert the frothing tube deeper into the milk
so that the top of the frothing tube cap is just under the surface of the milk. This will draw
the froth back through the frothing tube cap creating a finer textured froth. Do not heat milk
above 65°C (150°F). To avoid splattering of hot milk, do not let the tip of the frothing tube
go above the surface of the milk. After frothing is completed, turn the control knob back to
the off position “ ”.
Note: If you choose to run an espresso brew cycle immediately after steaming
milk, it is normal for the motor to run briefly and a small amount of
steam to appear from the drip tray.
6. You are now ready to make cappuccino. REMEMBER: It is 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed
milk and 1/3 frothed milk. Pour the espresso into a cup, which has the capacity of at
least 150 ml (5 ounces). Then add the steamed milk to the espresso and spoon on the
frothed milk.
7. When you are finished steaming milk, follow step 5 on Page 4 under section marked
“CAUTION” to flush out any residual milk from the frothing tube. It is important to properly
clean your frothing tube and wash its cap after each use to ensure it continues to work
properly. (See Step 2 below)
8. Unplug the power cord and allow the machine to cool.
CLEANING YOUR ESPRESSO/
CAPPUCCINO MAKER
1. Turn the side knob to the off position “ ”, switch the red button on the side to the off
position “O” and unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
2. The frothing tube may still be hot. Do not touch it with your hands until it has cooled.
Remove and wash the frothing tube cap and wipe frothing tube with a damp cloth.
Using the wrench built into the measuring spoon, unscrew the frothing tube tip
and clean the frothing tube valve with a needle or toothpick.
3. The water reservoir, filters, drip tray and drip grid can be washed with
soapy water or placed in the top rack of your dishwasher (avoid washing the brew
basket in your dishwasher). CAUTION: Do not immerse appliance in water.
