TO AVOID SPLATTERING OF HOT MILK, DO NOT LIFT THE STEAMING
NOZZLE ABOVE THE SURFACE OF THE MILK WHILE FROTHING.
ENSURE THE SELECTOR CONTROL IS IN THE ‘STANDBY’ POSITION
BEFORE REMOVING THE FROTHING JUG. 11
HOW TO FROTH MILK FOR A
CAPPUCCINO OR LATTÉ
A cappuccino is an espresso topped with
steamed and frothed milk ( 1 ⁄ 3 espresso,
1 ⁄ 3 steamed milk, 1 ⁄ 3 frothed milk), traditionally
served luke warm in a cup.
A latte is an espresso topped with
steamed and frothed milk ( 1 ⁄ 3 espresso,
topped with steamed milk and about 10cm of
frothed milk), traditionally served in a glass
wrapped with a serviette.
• The first step in making a cappuccino/latte
is to make a short espresso (Follow steps
in ‘How to make an Espresso’).
• Fill the frothing jug 1/3 full with cold milk
(skim milk is the easiest to froth).
• Hold the frothing jug below the froth
enhancer. Immerse the froth enhancer
10mm into the milk and rotate the
Selector Control to the ‘STEAM’
position . Gently move the frothing
jug in a circular motion around the
froth enhancer.
• When the milk begins to increase in
volume, immerse the froth enhancer
deeper into the milk to further heat the
milk. Do not allow the milk to boil.
• Turn the Selector Control to the
‘STANDBY’ position to stop the steaming
function before removing the jug.
• Add the steamed milk to each cup of
freshly brewed espresso coffee and spoon
on the frothed milk.
• Switch the power off at the power outlet,
unplug the power cord, remove all steam
pressure and allow the appliance to cool.
• Do not remove the water tank cap or the
filter holder until the steam pressure in
the appliance has been released. The
Pressure Indicator Button should drop
down and be flush with the top of the
water tank cap.

HOW TO RELEASE THE
STEAM PRESSURE
• Switch the power off at the power outlet
and unplug the power cord.
• Place the frothing jug under the steam
nozzle.
• Turn the selector control to the ‘STEAM’
position and allow all steam and
residual water to completely drain off into
the jug until all flow and sound ceases.
The steam pressure is now removed.
• Turn the selector control to the ‘BREW’
position to ensure steam pressure is
removed, then turn back to the ‘STANDBY’
position.
• The Pressure Indicator Button should drop
down and be flush with the top of the
water tank cap. (See Fig.5)
• After the steam pressure has been
released, remove the filter holder from the
brew head. Using the filter retainer clip to
secure the filter in the filter holder, turn
the filter holder upside down to empty
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.

THE METAL PARTS OF THE FILTER HOLDER MIGHT STILL BE VERY HOT.
COOL DOWN THESE PARTS BY RUNNING UNDER COLD WATER.
TO AVOID POSSIBLE BURNS FROM HOT STEAM AND WATER, NEVER
REMOVE THE WATER TANK CAP OR THE FILTER HOLDER WHILE THERE
IS STEAM PRESSURE IN THE WATER TANK. REMOVE ALL STEAM
PRESSURE FIRST.
NEVER LET COFFEE OR WATER LEVEL IN A CUP REACH THE POURING
NOZZLE OF THE FILTER HOLDER.
