• • Set the selector control to the
‘STEAM’ position.
• • Gently move the frothing jug in a circular
motion around the froth enhancer.
• • When the milk has begun to increase
in volume, immerse the froth enhancer
deeper into the milk to further heat
the milk.
• • Place your hand on the bottom of the
stainless frothing jug. When the jug
becomes too hot to touch, set the selector
control to the ‘OFF’ position to stop the
steaming function before removing the
jug. This will ensure that you don’t burn
the milk.
• • Add the steamed milk to each cup of
freshly brewed espresso coffee and
spoon on the frothed milk in the
following ratios:
Cappuccino - 1 ⁄ 3 espresso, 1 ⁄ 3 steamed milk,
1 ⁄ 3 frothed milk
Latte - 1 ⁄ 3 espresso topped with
steamed milk and about 10cm
of frothed milk (traditionally
served in a glass)

• • Make sure the selector control is in the
‘OFF’ position.
• • Plug the power cord into a 230/240V
electrical outlet, switch on and set the
power switch to the ‘ON’ position.
• • As soon as the orange ‘heating’ light
turns off, the machine is heated up.
• • Make sure the drip tray is in place.
• • Place one or two pre-heated cups
beneath the filter holder.
• • Set the selector control to the
‘Espresso’ position.
• • After a few seconds, aromatic coffee will
begin to run through.
• • When sufficient coffee has flowed into the
cups, set the selector control to the ‘OFF’
position. This will stop the flow of coffee.
• • If you do not need to use the steam
function, set the power switch to the ‘OFF’
position, unplug the power cord and allow
the machine to cool.
• • Remove the filter holder from the brew
head and using the filter retainer clip to
secure the filter in the filter holder, turn
the filter holder upside down to empty the
used coffee (used coffee grounds should
be thrown away with domestic waste and
not down the sink which may block
drains). Rinse the filter and filter holder
with water and allow to dry.
HOW TO FROTH MILK FOR A
CAPPUCCINO OR LATTE
The Breville Café Roma comes complete
with a frothing attachment for easier
frothing of milk. The first step in making a
cappuccino/latte is to make a short espresso
(see "Brewing Coffee"). Then:
• • Fill the stainless steel frothing jug 1 ⁄ 3 full
with cold milk.
• • As soon as the orange ‘heating’ light
turns off, plunge the steam wand into jug
of milk so that the main head of the froth
enhancer is immersed into the milk.

The machine remains ready
for brewing and maintains a
constant heating temperature
as long as the Power switch
is left in the ‘ON’ position. If
the temperature should drop,
the orange control light will
illuminate and the heater will
automatically heat up to the
correct brewing temperature.
• Always ensure that the
frothing attachment has
been firmly pushed onto
the steam wand
• For best results use
fresh cold milk (lite milk
will froth easier)
• Always clean the steam
wand and froth enhancer
after every use (refer to
care and cleaning)
• If brewing more coffee
straight after using the
steam function, set the
selector control to the
‘ESPRESSO’ position to
run a small amount of
water through the
brewing head for a few
seconds without the
filter holder in place.
This will prepare the
system for optimal
brewing temperature
THE METAL PARTS OF THE FILTER HOLDER MIGHT STILL BE VERY HOT.
COOL DOWN THESE PARTS BY RUNNING UNDER COLD WATER.
MAKE SURE YOU USE THE FILTER RETAINER CLIP WHEN DISCARDING
THE COFFEE GROUNDS.
LIQUID SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO RUN OVER THE TOP OF THE FROTH
ENHANCER, OTHERWISE IT WILL NOT FUNCTION.
TO AVOID SPLATTERING OF HOT MILK, DO NOT LIFT THE STEAM NOZZLE
ABOVE THE SURFACE OF THE MILK WHILE FROTHING.
ENSURE THE SELECTOR CONTROL IS IN THE ‘OFF’ POSITION BEFORE
REMOVING THE FROTHING JUG.
