HOW TO MAKE CAPPUCCINO

Cappuccino is espresso topped with steamed and frothed milk. Frothing milk for cap-
puccino takes practice. Do not be discouraged if it is not perfect the first time. The milk
should be half steamed (bottom of pitcher) and half froth (top of pitcher). It may take a
few times before you perfect this process.
For best results, we recommend frothing the milk in a separate pitcher and pouring the
milk into your coffee. The milk and pitcher should be cold. Do not use a pitcher which has
just been washed in warm water. We also recommend a stainless steel frothing pitcher
and a beverage thermometer, if you own one, for preparing the best froth and steamed
milk.
1. The first step in making cappuccino is to make espresso. Therefore, fill the glass
carafe with cold water to the designated marking for the desired number of servings.
Never use warm or hot water to fill the water reservoir. (See Chart from "How to Brew
Espresso" on Page 6)
2. Follow steps 1 – 5 in "Brewing Espresso" on Page 6 and 7.
3. Fill a small stainless steel or ceramic pitcher 1/2 full with cold milk and set next to
machine. Skim or 2% milk will be the easiest to froth.
4. If making 2 servings, stop brewing espresso at the 2- and 4-cup mark. Turn the control
knob to the " " position. If making 4 servings, stop brewing espresso at the 4-cup

5. You are now ready to froth and steam your milk. Hold the pitcher under the frothing
tube so that the frothing aid is slightly immersed in the milk. Turn the control knob
slowly to " " the position. Gently move the pitcher in a circular motion around the
steam nozzle for about 45 seconds. REMEMBER: The milk and the pitcher should be
very cold prior to frothing.
