Making coffee with milk
38
The following drinks with milk can be
made:
– Cappuccino consisting of approx.
2/3 milk froth and 1/3 espresso.
– Latte macchiato consisting of 1/3
each of hot milk, milk froth and
espresso.
– Caffè latte consists of coffee and hot
milk.
– Cappuccino italiano has the same
proportions of milk froth and
espresso as a cappuccino. The
difference is that the espresso is
added first and then the milk froth.
– Espresso macchiato. This is an
espresso with a small amount of milk
froth on top.
Select a cup which can hold at least
100ml for this drink.
– Flat white is a large cappuccino: lots
of espresso with plenty of milk froth.
– Café au lait. This is an espresso with
slightly hotter milk.
Hot milk or milk froth can also be
made.
Tip: Using cold cow's milk (<10°C)
with a protein content of at least 3% will
produce the perfect milk froth.
You can select milk with a fat content
according to preference. With whole
milk (at least3.5% fat), the milk froth
will be slightly creamier that with low-fat
milk.
Danger of burning and scalding
on the dispensing spouts.
The liquids and steam dispensed are
very hot and can cause scalding.
Keep well away from the area
underneath the spouts when hot
liquids and steam are being
dispensed.
Do not touch hot components.
Most additives contain sugar which
will adhere to the milk pipework and
damage the machine.
The milk used must not contain any
additives.
As soon as you select a drink
containing milk the machine will start to
heat up. The milk will be drawn up into
the central spout where it is heated by
steam and also frothed for drinks
requiring milk froth.
If you have not made any milk drinks
for a while, rinse the milk system
thoroughly before making the first
drink.
