TEAMING
1. Switch both the Espresso and CAFFÉ switches to the "OFF" position. Make sure
your appliance is cool enough to handle and the pressure has been released.
2. Insert the steam build-up plug into the filter holder then insert the filter holder
into the appliance. To insert the filter holder, line up the arrow located on the
thumb guard of the filter holder with the arrow on the left side of the appliance.
Raise the filter holder up into brewing head and turn the filter holder firmly to the
right, until it can go no further. The arrow on the filter holder should be as far
right in the lock-range as possible. If the arrow is not at least in the middle of the
lock-range, remove the filter holder and insert it again as described above until
the arrow is within the lock-range. This procedure will prevent the filter holder
from being dislodged as pressure builds up during the brewing process.
3. For steam only, do not fill the glass espresso carafe above the 2-cup marking.
Fill the boiler chamber with cold water. Have your frothing pitcher with 4 oz. of
fresh, cold milk ready to heat.
4. Place the glass espresso carafe with lid under the filter holder and turn the
espresso switch to the "ON" position. Open the steam release knob
immediately.
5. Immerse the frothing nozzle half way into the frothing pitcher filled with milk.
It will take approximately 30 - 60 seconds after turning the appliance on for the
steam to come out from the steam nozzle. Keep the pitcher slightly tilted so that
you can always see the position of the nozzle when you froth the milk. The
frothing nozzle should be below the surface of the milk but not so far as to allow
the top of the frothing nozzle into the milk. Your milk will begin to froth. As the
froth rises, keep lowering the pitcher so that the tip of the frothing nozzle is
always just slightly beneath the surface of the rising foam.
6. When the milk has doubled in volume, insert the frothing nozzle deeper into the
milk in order to heat the milk. Note: If using a beverage thermometer, the ideal
temperature of the milk when finished is 150-170ºF or 66ºC-77ºC. Do not allow
the milk to boil. You know this has happened if there is a sudden growth in the
volume of the milk and large bubbles start to form on the surface of the milk.
7. When finished, close the steam release knob by turning it clockwise while the
nozzle is still immersed in the milk. This will avoid splattering of the hot milk.
If you prefer a "stiff" froth, let the frothed milk stand for a minute.
8. Move the espresso switch to the "OFF" position.
Notes: If you did not need all the water for steaming, proceed as follows:
1. With the appliance off, release the remaining steam pressure into
another container.
2. Do not close the steam release knob before all steam is released; see
"Pressure Precautions" section in this manual.
