CARE & CLEANING

CLEANING THE STEAM WAND

IMPORTANT

After every use, thoroughly wipe the
steam wand and tip with a damp cloth &
purge immediately. Failure to clean the
steam wand may affect the milk texturing
performance.
• If any of the holes in the tip of the steam wand
become blocked, ensure the steam lever is in
the centre OFF position and unblock using the
steam tip cleaning tool. Even partially blocked
holes may affect the ability of the steam wand
to produce sufficient foam volume.
• If steam wand remains blocked, remove the
tip and soak together with steam wand using
the provided steam wand cleaning powder
(instructions below). Screw tip back onto the
steam wand after rinsing.
• The steam wand can be left immersed
in the milk jug filled with water when not
in use to reduce the risk of blockages.
