■If the “Perfect Froth“ is not attached, attach it now (see figure 14).

1.Pour 4 to 6 oz of fresh, cold milk into a small pitcher. The pitcher should fit underneath the steam nozzle.

We recommend using 2 % or skim for a stiff, dense froth. Use regular whole milk if you prefer a creamy froth.

2.Follow the directions from step 1 to 12 in section “Making Espresso“.

3.As soon as the first few drops of coffee are forced through the filter holder you can start frothing the milk.

Place the tip of the steam nozzle half way into the pitcher of milk.

4.a) Turn the steam release knob counterclockwise to release steam (see figure 15).

b)Keep the pitcher slightly tilted so that you can always see the position of the nozzle as you froth the milk.

In just a few seconds, your milk will begin to froth. As the froth rises, keep lowering the pitcher so that the tip of the steam nozzle is always just slightly beneath the surface of the rising froth. Note: Do not bring milk to a boil (this will happen if large bubbles start to form on the surface of the milk).

c)When you have finished frothing milk, close the steam release knob by turning it clockwise while the nozzle is still immersed in the milk. This will avoid splattering of the hot milk and froth.

d)If you prefer “stiff“ froth, let the frothed milk stand for a minute.

ATTENTION:

Clogged up steam nozzle

Milk residuals will build up in the tip of the steam nozzle after frothing milk. It is very important that you wipe the steam nozzle with a damp cloth after each use. This will help prevent the steam nozzle from clogging and will ensure perfect frothing results. However, should the steam nozzle become clogged, proceed as follows:

Let the steam nozzle cool down. Unscrew the tip and clean under warm water.

To unscrew the tip, use the opening in the measuring spoon. Make sure that the inside of the tip of the steam nozzle is free, so that the steam can pass freely to froth milk again.

■Replace the tip of the nozzle and screw on tightly (see figure 16).

Steaming without making Espresso (Steamplug)

CAUTION

Make sure your “Il Caffè Duomo“ is cool and all pressure has been released (see CAUTION - PRESSURE).

1.Insert the steam build-up plug into the filter holder (see figure 17).

2.Fill the boiler container with cold water.

CAUTION:

For steam only, do not fill the glass carafe above the 2-cup marking. This amount will always provide enough steam for frothing.

3.Have your pitcher with milk ready to heat.

4.Place glass carafe, with lid, unter filter holder and turn machine “on“

(see figure 13).

5.Open the steam release knob immediately after turning the machine on. Stand by with your frothing pitcher.

CAUTION:

Do not leave the machine unattended at this time.

It will take approximately 30 to 60 seconds after turning the machine on for the steam to come out of the steam nozzle. Proceed with steps 4.a) and 4.b) in the section “Making Cappuccino“.

6.When all steam is released, close the steam release knob and turn off the machine.

Caution:

If you do not need all the water for steaming, proceed as follows:

a)turn off the machine,

b)release the remaining steampressure into another container.
