Preparing hot water

0 Always make sure that the
lights are on steady.
0 Turn the milk frother towards the out-
side of the machine (Fig. 6).
0 Position a container underneath the
milk frother (Fig. 6).
0 Turn the steam knob half a turn anti-
clockwise until it stops (Fig. 8): hot
water will come out of the milk frother
and start to fill the container under-
neath.
0 To stop the flow of hot water, turn the
steam knob all the way clockwise (Fig.
8) and return the milk frother to the
original position towards the centre of
the machine. (It is recommended to
deliver hot water for no more than 2
minutes).

Frothing milk

0 Fill a container with around 100 grams
of milk for each cappuccino being pre-
pared. When choosing the size of the
container, remember that the volume
will increase by 2 or 3 times.
It is recommended to use partially
3
skimmed milk at fridge temperature.
0 Move the milk frother towards the
outside (Fig. 6).
0 Prepare the espresso coffee as
described in the corresponding sec-
tions, using sufficiently large cups.
0 Then press the steam button
(Fig. 22).
The light starts flashing to indicate
that the machine is heating up (the
and lights remain off to indicate
that it is not possible to make coffee).
When the light remains on steady
and stops flashing, the temperature of
the machine has reached the ideal
value for making the steam.
0 Immediately after, within a maximum
of two minutes (otherwise the machine
automatically returns to the coffee
function), dip the milk frother into the
container of milk (Fig. 23), and turn the
steam knob half a turn anticlockwise
and
until it stops (Fig. 8).
1 Be careful, to avoid being scalded.
1 Attention! Risk of impurities from
dried on milk residues in the milk
frother. Take care not to immerse the
milk frother in the milk far enough to
cover the air intake opening at the top
of the milk frother. Otherwise milk can
be sucked into the nozzle and cause
impurities in the milk frother.
The steam released will make the milk
froth and increase in volume. To make
creamier foam, dip the milk frother
into the milk and rotate the container
with slow movements from the bottom
to the top (you are recommended to
limit steam delivery to no more than
two minutes at a time).
0 Once having reached the desired tem-
perature, stop the steam by turning the
steam knob clockwise until it stops
(Fig. 8) and then press the
button (Fig. 22) to deactivate the
steam function.
0 Pour the frothed milk into the cups
containing the espresso coffee pre-
pared previously. The cappuccino is
now ready (add sugar to taste and if
desired, sprinkle the foam with a little
cocoa powder).
3 Note 1: immediately after having pre-
pared the cappuccino, once having
pressed the steam button
to deactivate the function, the
machine is too hot to make coffee (the
and
that the temperature is not suitable);
simply wait around 10 minutes for the
machine to cool down a little.
Hint: To cool it down more quickly,
after having deactivated the steam
function, open the steam knob and
release some water from the milk
frother into a container, until the
and
g
steam
(Fig. 22)
lights flash to indicate
lights stop flashing.
