Use and Care Manual

create a cyclone with the milk so it spins rapidly for about 30-40 seconds.
Then plunge the frothing wand all the way into the milk until the desired
temperature is reached.
TIP: Milk will start to scorch around 176°F so we suggest to stop frothing
before the temperature reaches 170°F.
f) When the desired amount of froth is reached or temperature has reached
170°F, turn the Selector Dial to the "•" position.
CAUTION! Never remove the frothing wand from the milk while the Selector
Dial is still in the steam position " ". Always turn the selector dial to the
center "•" position before removing the frothing wand from the milk or it
could cause hot milk to splatter.
NOTE: Carefully clean the frothing wand with a wet cloth immediately after
frothing to avoid milk build up. Take care to avoid contact with hot parts.
g) Tap the pitcher on the counter to settle the milk and force any air bubbles
to the top. Right before pouring, roll the milk gently around the pitcher to
incorporate the foam and the milk. The milk should have a shiny, smooth
surface that is free of any large bubbles.
h) Pour the frothed milk into the prepared espresso, now the cappuccino is
ready. Sweeten to taste and add any ingredients you desire such as flavored
syrups, extracts or cocoa powder/spices.
NOTE: After frothing, we recommended you allow the machine to cool down
for at least 5 minutes before making espresso again. This allows the machine
to cool down from steaming temperature to the proper espresso brewing
temperature. If multiple cappuccinos will be made, prepare all the espressos
first into hot cups and then froth the milk after.
TIP: If you would like to prepare more espresso immediately after steaming
milk, the boiler must be refilled with cold water in order to bring the boiler’s
temperature down and avoid a burnt espresso taste from brewing at too
high of a temperature. Change the Coffee/Steam switch to the coffee " "
position. Place a large empty cup on the drip tray and turn the Selector Dial
towards the cup symbol " ". Allow the cup to fill with water to empty the
hot water from the boiler. Turn the Selector Dial to the center "•" position to
stop the flow of hot water and remove the portafilter. Dry the portafilter well
and the boiler should be at the correct temperature for espresso brewing.
8. Preparing Latte
Latte is the combination of one or two shots of espresso with an equal or larger
amount of hot steamed milk without or very little froth.
Steaming Milk
For best results always start with fresh, cold milk. The ideal temperature for
steamed milk is between 140°F-160°F.
a) Follow steps a – d above in chapter 7. Using the black silicon grip, pull frothing
wand forward and insert the frothing wand into the milk about half way down
the pitcher, then turn the Selector Dial to the right, steam/frothing " "
position. Steam will be produced from the wand and will heat the milk.
Slowly move the pitcher around and heat to desired temperature.
TIP: Milk will start to scorch around 176°F so we suggest to stop frothing
when the temperature reaches 170°F.
b) When the desired temperature is reached, turn the Selector Dial to the center
"•" position.
