Making a perfect cappuccino coffee

Prepare your machine as described in the section, ‘How to make a perfect espresso coffee’. Use your glass jug for measuring the correct amount of water needed. Follow steps 1-11 how to make a perfect espresso.

Frothing milk

It is advised to start heating your milk ready for frothing several minutes before making coffee to ensure milk is hot.

1Fill the stainless steel milk jug provided with the required amount of milk. Do not exceed the maximum level or add less than the minimum level.

2Place the jug on the hot plate and switch on, the orange light will glow.

3Once the coffee is brewed, the milk is ready to froth. Lift the milk jug up to the milk frother blade (see diagram). Raise the milk jug ensuring that the frother blade is just under the surface of the milk - this will give the maximum froth. Push and release the milk frother button.

TAKE CARE AS THE MILK WILL BE HOT. When the milk is frothy, (which normally takes around 30 seconds), press the milk frother button once more to stop the frother.

4Pour the coffee into cups and gently pour or preferably spoon the milk onto the coffee, then sprinkle a little chocolate powder for perfect cappuccino.

Turn off the milk frother hot plate by pressing the neon on/off switch.

Warning: the stainless steel jug and the hotplate will remain hot for sometime after switching off.

The milk frother blade can be removed for easy cleaning by unscrewing the blade. Wash carefully in hot soapy water. It is recommended that you remove the blade immediately after use, as dried milk can be difficult to remove. To replace, insert the stem of the milk frother blade into the mounting hole on the unit and screw into place.

There may be some splash back of milk on the underside of the frothing unit. Switch the unit off then simply wipe this area clean with a damp cloth.
