press down on the grounds and clean any excess from the rim. Secure the portafilter holder in place.
Turn the steam/hot water dial to the steam setting. Pour the milk into the pre-chilled frothing pitcher. Hold the pitcher in one hand and place it under the steam wand so the bottom of the wand is just below the surface of the milk. Press the steam button and while holding the pitcher at an angle, allow the steam to move the milk around. Once the milk begins to increase in volume, lift the pitcher higher so the steam wand is immersed farther into the milk. Move the pitcher up and down a couple of times to achieve a nice foam. When the foam has almost reached the top of the pitcher, press the power button to turn the espresso maker off.
Reserve steamed/frothed milk.
