The steam can be used for texturing/
frothing milk or for heating liquids. As the
temperature for generating steam must be
higher than for making coffee, the espresso
machine is equipped with an additional
steam mode.
Important: There is risk of scalding when
the steam nozzle is in use. Hot water or
hot steam can cause scalding. Only use the
steam nozzle when it is immersed in the
milk.
• When wanting to froth milk, press the
steam pre-selection button on the control
panel, see figure 27. The steam pre-
selection indicator illuminates and in
addition the indicator will start to flash,
indicating that the espresso machine is
heating. When heating is finished, the
indicator will stop flashing and remain
constant. The espresso machine is now
ready for texturing/frothing milk, see figure
28.
Note: If the steam function is not used for
more than 1 minute, the espresso machine
automatically switches back to coffee making
mode.
• Pour cold milk into a stainless steel jug to
no more than ¹/³ full.
Tip: For best results we recommend using
refrigerated milk and a stainless steel jug
that is well chilled. Be sure not to rinse the
jug with warm water before use.
• Swing the steam nozzle out to the side of
the machine and hold the jug under the
steam nozzle so that the nozzle opening is
completely immersed in the milk. Turn the
Milk frothing using the steam
function
