• Hold the frothing jug at an angle so that steam
wand and/or the frothing attachment sits just
below the surface of the heating milk and the
steam will move the milk around the inside of
the jug in a circular motion.
NOTE: The espresso machine features a swivel
steam wand assembly so the position of the steam
wand can be changed to a comfortable angle.
• When the milk starts to increase in volume,
immerse the steam wand and/or frothing
attachment deeper into the jug to heat the milk.
• Hold the jug at an angle with one hand and
place your other hand on the outer ba se of the
stainless frothing jug.
• When the base of the jug becomes too hot to
touch, set the Selector Control to the ‘Standby’
position, stopping the steaming function before
removing the jug. A pumping noise will sound
for a short time, do not be alarmed as there
will be a five second delay prior to the machine
carrying out the Auto-purge function.
• Pour the steamed milk into each cup of freshly
brewed espresso coffee and spoon in the
frothing milk, in the following ratios:
Cappuccino –
1
⁄
3
espresso,
1
⁄
3
steamed milk,
1
⁄
3
frothed milk
Latté –
1
⁄
3
espresso topped with steamed milk
and approximately 1cm frothed milk, traditionally
served in a glass.
NOTE: After 5 minutes of continuous steaming,
the machine will automatically disable the steam
function. The steam and hot water lights will flash.
When this occurs return the selector control to the
‘Standby’ position.
NOTE: Always ensure that the frothing attachment
has been firmly pushed onto the steam wand
and connects with the rubber surround. For best
results use cold fresh milk (lowfat milk will froth
easier). Always clean the steam wand and frothing
attachment after every use. Refer to ‘Care and
Cleaning’, page 64.
NOTE: For brewing more coffee immediately after
using the steam function, this machine features
an auto-purge function. This ensures that ground
coffee will not be burnt by the initial water flow
from the thermoblock being too hot. Instead this
water is automatically released internally into the
drip tray ensuring that the internal thermostat is
at optimal temperature for extracting coffee. Your
coffee will always be extracted at this optimal
temperature ensuring only the best flavoured coffee
is achieved.
WARNING:
Milk should not be allowed to run over the top of the frothing attachment, otherwise it will not function properly.
To avoid splattering of hot milk, do not lift the end of the frothing attachment above the surface of the milk while frothing.
Ensure the selector control is in the ‘Standby’ position before removing the frothing jug.
