Dispensing Steam - Gaggia K 111 D Instrucciones De Uso

The key ingredients for preparing cappuccino, espresso macchiato and latte macchiato are
frothed milk and freshly made espresso.
Prepare an espresso as described on page .
Note:
The reason why the espresso should be prepared first is that the temperature required
to make it is lower than the temperature required for frothing the milk, and the machine is
quicker to heat up than to cool down.
For best frothing results, use cold milk (warmed up milk will not froth). Any type of milk can
be used, depending on taste, as long as fat content does not exceed .5%.

Caution
Steam and hot water can cause scalding. Never aim the steam or hot water flow towards
parts of your body. Do not touch the hot parts of the coffee machine, i.e. the steam wand.
Do not use the steam function unless you have placed a suitable receptacle under the
steam wand.
• Press the button with the steam symbol (Fig.14). The
button light will start blinking and the machine will
start heating the water to generate steam. When the
button stops blinking and lights steadily, the machine
is ready for use.
Note: some drops of water may come out of the
capsule holder while water is being heated. This is
perfectly normal and will not jeopardize the operation of
the machine.
• Place a suitable container that is resistant to high
temperatures under the steam wand and hold it by
the handle. Slowly rotate the knob anti-clockwise.

perfectly normal and will not jeopardize the operation of
the machine.
• When the flow of hot water turns into a flow of steam,
stop the function turning the knob clockwise.
