HOW TO FROTH MILK FOR A CAPPUCCINO OR LATTE
The Breville Café Roma comes complete with a frothing attachment for easier frothing of milk. The first step in making a cappuccino/latte is to make a short espresso (see "Brewing Coffee"). Then:
•Fill the stainless steel frothing jug 1⁄3 full with cold milk.
•As soon as the orange ‘heating’ light turns off, plunge the steam wand into jug of milk so that the main head of the froth enhancer is immersed into the milk.
•Set the selector control to the ‘STEAM’ position.
•Gently move the frothing jug in a circular motion around the froth enhancer.
•When the milk has begun to increase in volume, immerse the froth enhancer deeper into the milk to further heat the milk.
•Place your hand on the bottom of the stainless frothing jug. When the jug becomes too hot to touch, set the selector control to the ‘OFF’ position to stop the steaming function before removing the jug. This will ensure that you don’t burn the milk.
•Add the steamed milk to each cup of freshly brewed espresso coffee and spoon on the frothed milk in the following ratios:
Cappuccino - 1⁄3 espresso, 1⁄3 steamed milk,
1⁄3 frothed milk
Latte - | 1⁄3 espresso topped with |
| steamed milk and about 10cm |
| of frothed milk (traditionally |
| served in a glass) |
•Always ensure that the frothing attachment has been firmly pushed onto the steam wand
•For best results use fresh cold milk (lite milk will froth easier)
•Always clean the steam wand and froth enhancer after every use (refer to care and cleaning)
•If brewing more coffee straight after using the steam function, set the selector control to the ‘ESPRESSO’ position to run a small amount of water through the brewing head for a few seconds without the filter holder in place. This will prepare the system for optimal brewing temperature
drains). Rinse the filter and filter holder |
with water and allow to dry. |
| LIQUID SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO RUN OVER THE TOP OF THE FROTH |
ENHANCER, OTHERWISE IT WILL NOT FUNCTION. |
THE METAL PARTS OF THE FILTER HOLDER MIGHT STILL BE VERY HOT. COOL DOWN THESE PARTS BY RUNNING UNDER COLD WATER.
MAKE SURE YOU USE THE FILTER RETAINER CLIP WHEN DISCARDING

TO AVOID SPLATTERING OF HOT MILK, DO NOT LIFT THE STEAM NOZZLE |
|
ABOVE THE SURFACE OF THE MILK WHILE FROTHING. |
|
ENSURE THE SELECTOR CONTROL IS IN THE ‘OFF’ POSITION BEFORE |
|
REMOVING THE FROTHING JUG. | 9 |
