OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
9 PREPARING CAPPUCCINOS (USING STEAM)
• Move the cappuccino frother outwards (fig. 3).
• Place an empty container under the cappuccino frother (fig. 3). Turn
the steam knob a half turn counter-clockwise as far as it will go (the
light flashes fig. 22). Run off the steam mixed with water for a
few seconds until only steam is given off.
• Then interrupt steam delivery by rotating the knob clockwise as far
as it will go (fig. 6).
• Empty the container and fill it with about 3.5 oz. of milk for each
cappuccino to be prepared. In choosing the size of the container,
bear in mind that the milk increases in volume by 2 or 3 times. You
are recommended to use skim or 2% milk at refrigerator tempera-
ture (about 41°F/5°C).
• Dip the cappuccino frother into the into the container with milk (fig.
23), taking care not to immerse the raised line on the cappuccino
frother (indicated by the arrow in fig. 24).Turn the steam knob a
half turn counter-clockwise as far as it will go (take care to avoid
scalds). Steam is discharged from the cappuccino maker, giving the
milk a creamy frothy appearance. To obtain a creamier froth, dip
the cappuccino frother into the milk and rotate the container with
slow movements from the bottom upwards. (You should not dis-
charge steam for more than two minutes at a time).
• Once the desired temperature has been reached, stop the steam by
turning the steam knob clockwise until it stops (Fig. 6).
• Prepare the coffee .as described in section 5, using large enough
cups, then fill with the frothed milk prepared previously. The cap-
puccino is ready. Sweeten to taste and if desired, sprinkle the froth
with a little cocoa powder.
NOTE 1: The cappuccino frother must always be cleaned after use.
Proceed as follows:
• Release a little steam for a few seconds by turning the steam knob
counter-clockwise until it stops (Fig. 5).
With this operation, the steam spout discharges any milk that may
be left inside. IMPORTANT: For hygiene reasons, this operation
should always be performed, so as to prevent previously used milk
from remaining inside the cappuccino frother.
• Turn the knob clockwise as far as it will go. With one hand, hold the
cappuccino frother handle firm and with the other unscrew the cap-
puccino frother cover itself by rotating clockwise and extracting
downwards (fig. 25).
• Remove the steam nozzle from the delivery spout by pulling it
downwards (Fig. 26).
• Carefully wash the cappuccino frother and the steam nozzle in
warm water.
