12.1.4 CLEANING THE FROTHXPRESS
After frothing, a few drops of milk are still inside the frothXpress.
12.1.5 QUICK RINSE
If you don’t use the frothXpress within the next half hour there is a quick and easy way remove those milk deposits.
•Place a cup underneath the frothXpress
•Place a cup with some cold water next to the machine and insert the other end of the milk hose into this cup (Fig. 14). The frothXpress dial points at the 12 o’clock position. READY.
•Push the Steam Button (Fig. 3). HEATING. When the display shows READY push the Steam button again STEAM. The system will push steam through the frothXpress.
•Push the Steam button to stop.
12.1.6THOROUGH CLEANING / CAPPUCCINO CLEANER If you use the frothXpress extensively or in case you forgot to clean the frothXpress, it is possible that milk fat starts building up inside the frothXpress.
The J5 comes with a bottle of milk fat dissolver (Cappuccino Cleaner). This is the fastest and easiest way to remove any milk residue from the frothXpress.
• Remove the frothXpress from the nozzle.
• Take the frothXpress apart (Fig. 17).
• Place all parts including the hose in a cup with warm water and add one
• Let sit for ten minutes or overnight.
• Rinse all parts under fresh water and assemble.
12.2 USING THE DUAL FROTHER PLUS
The Dual Frother Plus is ideal if you want to froth or steam milk
for just one or two cups of latte or cappuccino.
Remove the frothXpress, take the Dual Frother out of the storage compartment and attach to the steam nozzle (Fig. 18)
Frothing Position: The cylinder of the frother is pushed down.
Steaming Position: The cylinder is pushed up ( see Fig. 19).
•Fill the desired amount of milk into a pitcher or in your cup. Make sure that the pitcher or the cup has at least twice the volume of the milk, e.g. if you steam or froth 5 oz. of milk use a 10 to 12 oz. pitcher.
•Always start with cold milk. Skim milk will produce the most froth and will let you taste more of the coffee. Milk with 1% and 2% fat will give you a bit less froth. Regular milk (3% fat) will produce even less froth. The Dual Frother with its new tip design will create a dense froth.
•The steam button is set to 20 seconds of steaming.
•Push the steam button (Fig. 3). Display shows HEATING.
•When the display shows READY immerse the tip of the frother into the milk (Fig. 20) and push the steam button. With the
cylinder pushed down, small frothing bubbles will build up on the surface. With the cylinder pushed up, steam will heat up the milk without creating froth. Both positions will create a distinctive sound.
IMPORTANT:
•If the steam output stops, you can push the steam button again and continue.
•You can always stop the frothing action by pushing any of the beverage buttons.
•When you are finished with frothing/steaming set the pitcher aside and prepare a shot or a double shot of espresso. Add the frothed/steam milk to taste.
