How to make cappuccino
1. Prepare espresso coffee, using cups that are large enough for
cappuccinos.
2. Press the steam button (fig. 17).
3. Open the steam tap for a few seconds to eliminate all water from
the circuit. Close the tap.
3. Wait for the steam indicator light on the steam button to come
on (fig. 17). The steam indicator light indicates that the boiler has
reached the ideal temperature for steam production.
4. In the meantime, fill a container with about 100 ml of milk for each
cappuccino to be prepared. Ideally use a small stainless steel jug.
The milk must be at refrigerator temperature (not hot!). In choo-
sing the size of the container, bear in mind that the milk increases
in volume by 2 or 3 times. NB: YOU ARE RECOMMENDED TO USE
SEMI-SKIMMED MILK AT REFRIGERATOR TEMPERATURE.
5. Place the container with the milk under the cappuccino maker.
6. Dip the cappuccino maker into the milk (fig. 18), taking care not
to immerse the raised line on the cappuccino maker.
Turn the steam knob anticlockwise (fig. 19). Steam is given off by
the cappuccino maker, giving the milk a creamy frothy appear-
ance. To obtain a creamier froth, dip the cappuccino maker into
the milk and rotate the container with slow movements from the
bottom upwards.
6. When the required temperature is reached, interrupt steam
delivery by rotating the steam knob clockwise. Then press the
steam button (fig. 17).
8. Pour the frothed milk into the cups containing the espresso
coffee. Your cappuccino is now ready. If desired, add sugar and
sprinkle a little powdered chocolate or cinnamon on top of the
froth.
N.B.: to make coffee again after frothing milk, you must wait until
the appliance has cooled down. If it is too hot ( and lights
on together), the coffee will be burnt. To cool, place a container
under the boiler outlet, press the coffee button and run off the
water until the "steam ready" light goes off. Stop the flow of
water by pressing the button again.
You are recommended to deliver steam for a maximum of 60
seconds and never to froth milk more than three times consecu-
tively.
