OPERATING THE ESPRESSO MACHINE

5

With the Steam dial closed,

adjust the frothing arm so it’s in

a comfortable working position, and submerge the tip of the frothing nozzle just below the surface of the milk in the frothing pitcher.

7

As the froth expands, it is necessary

to lower the pitcher. This is called the

stretching phase of frothing. When the frothed milk has expanded to about 3/4 the volume of the pitcher, lower the frothing nozzle into the pitcher to finish steaming (heating) the milk.

9

To avoid splattering, close the Steam

dial by turning it clockwise until it stops

before removing the frothing arm from the milk.

6

Slowly open the Steam dial by turning

it counter-clockwise. The further

the Steam dial is rotated, the greater volume of steam will be released. Tilt the pitcher to one side to create a whirling motion in the milk, keeping the tip of the frothing nozzle about 1/4 inch below the milk’s surface.

8

Keep the pitcher tilted to maintain

a whirling motion in the milk. Steam

the milk until it’s between 140 and 165 degrees Fahrenheit. (At these temperatures, the pitcher will be very warm to the touch.) Avoid scalding the milk, which occurs at 175 degrees.

NOTE: KitchenAid recommends using a standard kitchen thermometer to determine when the milk reaches 140°F -165°F when learning to steam milk. Typically the pitcher is almost too hot to touch when this temperature is reached.
