12.3 Tips on Making Hotter Coffee

•When the machine is first turned on and a short cup of espresso / coffee is required, use the hot rinse cycle to pre-heat cups (refer to point 14 in section 11.3 of the manual).

•Unless pre-heated, do not use cups that are too thick.

•Use cups that have been previously heated by rinsing them with hot water.

•Use cups that have been previously heated using the cup warmer on top of the machine.

13:Frothing or Steaming (How to Make the Perfect Cappuccino or Latte)

What is cappuccino?

A cup of cappuccino is one shot of espresso, 1/3 cup steamed milk with a dollop of froth. It can be garnished with chocolate, cinnamon or nutmeg.

What is a latte?

A cup of latte is one shot of espresso (or two shots for a double latte), 1/2 cup steamed milk with about 1/2 to 1/3 froth.

Use this feature to heat up liquids or to froth or steam milk for cappuccinos or lattes.

The milk frother must be cleaned after each use. Please refer to the “Cleaning and Maintenance” section of the manual for more detailed instructions.

Before First Use:

1.The removable parts of the milk frother (milk frother body and steam nozzle) are high precision parts. Always keep these two parts clean and free of milk residue. (See “Cleaning and Maintenance” section of the manual for more detailed instructions on cleaning.)

Ready to Begin Frothing or Steaming:

1.Fill a container (metal container is recommended) with about 3.5 oz. of cold milk.

2.Note: Skim (0% fat) milk is recommended. It will produce the most froth and will let you taste more of the espresso / coffee. 1% and 2% milk will produce less froth, and regular milk (3% fat) will give you half or less than half the froth of skim milk.

3.When choosing the size of the container, remember that the volume will increase by two or three times.
