“Perfect device
A unique disc fitted into the filterholder will produce coffee
giving the perfect essential for the authentic
espresso, whatever type of grind use. Furthermore, you
need only use the two-cup asket even when brewing
for one person (one level measure of coffee only).
When preparing to make cappuccino, have all of the ingredients at hand as well
as a frothing pitcher (or mug) half-filled with skimmed or low-fat milk and cups that are
larger (6 oz.) than those used for espresso.
The less fat content in the milk the denser the froth will be. Skimmed or low-fat
(2%) milk will provide a thick foam. With regular the froth will quickly collapse.
The Turbo-Frother will give you all the froth required but don’t let milk come to a boil.
Let frothed stand for about seconds before spooning in onto the espresso.
It may re or three tries to “become an expert” but you will be successful
at milk
you give
it a chance. Swivel the Turbo-Frother steam nozzle slightly
outward so that you can get the frothing pitcher under the nozzle without hitting the
base of the machine.
Make espresso (in a large cups) as described above.
Depress steam switch (2) to “On”.
After to seconds or, when temperature ready-light (33 goes on, place the
frothing pitcher
with low-fat milk under Turbo Frother steam nozzle so
that tip is just under the surface of the milk. See Fii. A.
Slowly turn steam valve knob counter clockwise to release steam.
IMPORTANT:
The more you turn the knob, the greater the steam pressure for frothing.
Move pitcher in circular motion keeping the tip of steam nozzle just under surface
of milk as it begins to froth. Do not let come to a boil since it will not froth
When
you
have made enough froth, turn steam knob clockwise to shut off steam and
remove pitcher. Put steam switch (2) to “Off” position.
Spoon the froth onto the espresso in each cup and gently pour the hot milk along the
side of the cup. Top each cup of cappuccino with a dash of cinnamon, cocoa, nutmeg
or chocolate shavings. Serve.
