Cleaning the Dual Frother Plus | Capresso Impressa F7 manual

Steaming and frothing directly in your cappuccino cup: With practice, you can steam and froth directly in your cappuccino cup. First steam and froth the milk, then add your espresso shot.

Please note: The less fat content the milk has the more froth will be created. Skim milk will produce the most froth and will let you taste more of the coffee. 1% and 2% milk will give you less froth. Regular whole milk (3% fat) will produce the least amount of froth. You can also use soy milk.

15. CLEANING THE DUAL FROTHER PLUS

Always keep the Dual Frother Plus clean and free of milk deposits. Clean immediately after use. Hardened milk particles will make it impossible to create milk froth.

Fast cleaning:

Display shows READY. Place a cup underneath the frother

(Fig. 13) and turn the Steam/Water Selector to the water symbol. Let hot water run through the frother for about 3 seconds and then stop. This will flush out any small milk droplets.

Thorough cleaning of the Dual Frother parts:

•Remove the Dual Frother (Fig.14) from the Steam Nozzle (Fig. 15c).

Please note: The Dual Frother is tightly connected to the Steam Nozzle. First loosen the Clip-On Connector part (Fig. 14c) by turning it a few times, then push down to remove.

•Unscrew the black tip (Fig.14a) from the Clip-On Connector (Fig. 14c). You can use a coin to loosen the black tip.

•Soak all three parts in hot soapy water.

•Make sure that the two side holes and the channel of the black tip (Fig. 14a) are free of any milk deposits.

Cleaning the Steam Nozzle (Fig. 15c)

•Place a cup underneath the Steam Nozzle (the Dual Frother is off) and let a bit of hot water run through the Steam Nozzle. Tip: If the steam nozzle is blocked by hardened milk, use a needle, toothpick or paper clip and loosen up the milk deposit. Then let some hot water pass through the Steam Nozzle.

Assembly of Frother Parts

•Make sure the Steam Nozzle is screwed onto the Metal Tube (Fig. 15a) finger tight.

•Assemble the Dual Frother and make sure that the tip is screwed onto the Connector finger tight (Fig 14a, c).

•Push the black Clip-on Connector (Fig.14c) firmly into the steam nozzle (the connector should sit flush with the chrome sleeve (Fig. 15b) so that the steam nozzle is no longer visible). Please note: If the parts are not connected tightly it will not be possible to create the frothy foam on top of the milk.
