E p a r i n g cappuccino, Frothing Milk

3.Select the correct filter basket (9a) and insert it in the filter holder (9). Use the small filter basket for 1 cup and the large filter basket for 2 cups of espresso. Then.insert the filter holder (9) into the brew head (11) to warm-up.

4.After the warm-up period, remove the warm filter-holder (9) from the brew-head (11) and fill with correctly ground espresso coffee using the measuring spoon provided Place one level measure of coffee in basket for each cup of espresso. Do not overfill. Gently tamp down coffee with the tamper (13) provided. Do not compress too firmly.

5.Clean any excess coffee from the rim of filter holder (9). Insert filter holder into brew head (11) by holding handle approximately 45 degrees to the left as you face machine. When properly aligned, move handle firmly to the right to lock into position. The handle should point to the front of the machine or slightly to the right.

6.Place one or two espresso cups on the drip plate (10) to line up with the spouts of the filter holder. Depress hot water/brew switch (3) to “I” position. Espresso will start to flow into cups.

7.When cups are 3/4 full, release brew switch to “0”.The more water. you allow to flow, the weaker the coffee. When properly made, the espresso will have a light brown foam “crema” floating on the top. If not, refer to

Troubleshooting Hints. Remove cups and serve.

8.To make more espresso, carefully and slowly remove the filter holde; by moving handle to the left. Use care as hot water will be on top of the coffee grinds in the holder. Some water will continue to drip from brew head as filter holder is removed. That is normal and due to the pump pressure in the system.

Knock out used coffee grinds from filter basket and rinse. For more espresso repeat steps 4 to 8 above.

will produce coffee giving the perfect “Crema”

essential for the authentic espresso, whatever type of grind you use. Furthermore, you need only use the two- cup filter basket even when brewing for one person (one level measure of coffee only).

P r e p a r i n g cappuccino:

When preparing to make cappuccino, have all of the ingredients at hand as well as a frothing pitcher (or mug) half- filled with skimmed or low-fat milk and cups that are larger (6 oz.) than those used for espresso.

Frothing Milk:

Which kind of milk?

The less fat content in the milk the denser the froth will be. Skimmed or low-fat (2%) milk will provide a thick foam. With regular milk the froth will quickly collapse. The Turbo-Frother will give you all the froth required but don’t let milk come to a boil. Let frothed milk stand for about 30 seconds before spooning in onto the espresso.

It may require two or three tries to “become an expert” but you will be successful at frothing milk if you give it a chance. Swivel the Turbo-Frother steam nozzle slightly outward so that you can get the frothing pitcher under the nozzle without hitting the base of the machine.

1.Make espresso (in a large cups) as described above.

2.Depress steam switch (4) to “I”.

3.After 10 to 15 seconds or, when temperature ready-light (3a) goes on, place the frothing pitcher halffilled with low-fat milk under Turbo Frother steam nozzle so that tip is just under the surface of the milk. See Fig. A.
