Cappuccino is the combination

of hot milk and milk froth (for
Latte see chapter 8).
NOTE: When frothing, the sieve
and portafilter should be
assembled in the "LOCK"
position.
Frothing Milk
For best results always start with fresh, cold milk (about 34°F). The ideal end
temperature for frothed or steamed milk is between 140°F-160°F. Any type of
milk can be used when frothing. Whole milk will produce good microfoam
(small bubbles) while low-fat and fat-free milk with produce large, airy bubbles
in the froth. Non-dairy milks will not hold the froth as well but can be steamed
and heated for lattes.
