Functions of your Café Latte (continued)

After each use of the espresso machine for best results when making consecutive cups of espresso we recommend that you flush a small amount of water through the machine with the filter handle already

removed from the brewing head. Simply

turn the operating dial to the setting and allow the water to run through until you have a consistent flow of water. This will wash out any old or used coffee grinds stuck to the underside of the brewing head and also help ensure the correct water temperature for your next shot of espresso.

Once the orange ‘Warm Up’ light goes out your machine is ready to make the next espresso.

Note: Do not leave the filter handle locked in position for extended periods, or when machine is not in use. This shortens the life of the brew head rubber seal.

2. STEAM FUNCTION

The steam function can be used for texturing/ frothing milk or heating liquids.

Important: There is a risk of scalding when the steam nozzle is in use. Hot water or hot steam can cause scalding. Only use the steam wand/arm when it is immersed in the milk.

Fill the water reservoir (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) with cold water.

Start the unit (6). The red ‘Power’ light and orange ‘Warm Up’ light will both illuminate.

Swing the steam nozzle to the side of the machine.

Pour cold milk into a stainless steel jug to no more than 1/3 full.

Tip: For best results we recommend using refrigerated milk and a stainless steel jug that is well chilled. Be sure not to rinse the jug with warm water before use.

When the Sunbeam Café Latte is the right temperature the orange ‘Warm Up’ light will go out.

Hold the jug under the steam wand/arm so that the nozzle opening is completely immersed in the milk. Turn the operating

dial to the setting to activate the steam and commence texturing the milk (20).

Tip: For instructions on how to froth/ texture milk refer to section 'Easy steps for texturing milk'.

Lower the jug so that the tip of the steam nozzle is just below the surface of the milk and place your hand on the side of the jug.

Note: The nozzle must not touch the bottom of the jug to ensure that the steam release is not obstructed.

Move the jug so that the steam wand/arm is to one side, this will create a whirlwind motion to the milk. As the steam heats the milk, the milk will begin to rise. Follow the level of the milk by lowering the jug, always keeping the tip of the steam nozzle just below the surface.

Cease steaming when the jug becomes too hot to continue holding the palm of your hand against the side. Simply turn the operating dial to the ’off’ position and remove the jug.

Note: Do not boil the milk.
