Frothing milk
• The amount and quality of the milk froth produced depends on many
factors: the fat content of the milk, whether it is fresh or UHT milk,
the temperature of the milk and the chosen brand.
• Use chilled milk with a fat contant of at least 1.5% (or semi-skimmed).
Warm milk is more difficult to froth.
• When frothing the milk, make sure that it does not become too hot,
as the froth will separate again at high temperatures.
• If you interrupt the heating process for frothing milk, a small amount
of hot water my be emitted from the frother nozzle.
1. Fill a cup or small jug one third
full with cold milk.
2. Briefly press the steam
button once.
WARNING
- risk of scalds/burns
Hot steam and hot water can cause scalding. Never expose any part
•
of the body to the steam or hot water jet.
Do not touch any hot
parts of the machine, such as the steam wand or the metal on
the frother nozzle
. Only use the steam/froth functions if a suitable,
heat-resistant container has been placed under the frother nozzle.
The LED ring on the steam
wand will flash and the heating
process for frothing milk will
begin.
Press the steam button again to
interrupt the heating process.
You will hear two beeps when
the machine is ready for frothing
milk. The LED ring on the steam
wand will light up continuously...
... and the steam button will
flash.
3. Hold the container under the
frother nozzle, ensuring that
the frother nozzle is deeply
immersed in the milk.
While frothing milk, the frother
nozzle must always stay below
the milk’s surface!
4. Briefly press the steam button
once. The machine will begin
frothing milk after a few
seconds.
5. As soon as the right amount of
froth has been produced, press
the steam button again to stop
the milk frothing process.
