For Best Results
• Be sure to refrigerate your coffee pods to retain the robust flavor
and rich aroma.
• The quality of water you use directly affects the taste of your coffee.
The better the water, the better the coffee. Always use fresh water.
• Clean the parts as described in Care and Cleaning Instructions peri-
odically to ensure the freshest tasting espresso.
• Always use fresh, cold skim milk or 2% milk when frothing. This will
result in wonderful froth. (Never use whole milk, cream, or half-and-
half.)
• Chill your frothing pitcher in the refrigerator before making froth.
• Make sure the frothing pitcher is metal or ceramic,
never glass.
• Clean the Steam Nozzle and Frothing Attachment after each use
with a damp cloth or sponge.
• To flavor cappuccino either with mocha or with flavored syrups such
as vanilla or almond, add them directly to the brewed coffee —
NEVER TO THE COFFEE MACHINE. Add syrup to the coffee
before adding froth.
