Adding Milk; Brewing Coffee And Frothing Milk; Frothing Milk Only; Producing Frothed Milk - Capresso CoffeeTEC 471 Manual

Insert the knob into the joint and
make sure it clicks in place and sits
tight (X to Y), and then insert the joint
firmly into the connector (Y to V).

5.2 Adding Milk

Remove the lid of the milk container
and fill with milk. Replace the milk
container lid and connect with the
joint (see fig. 3; Z to Y). Make sure
that the knob sits parallel to the joint
(see fig. 7). (If it sits perpendicular to
the joint no milk can be siphoned
through the system; see fig. 8.)
5.3 Brewing Coffee and Frothing
Milk
Fill the water container with the
desired amount of water for coffee.
By doing so, you automatically add
the water necessary for frothing. The
CoffeeTEC will first brew the coffee.
After coffee brewing is finished, the
machine will switch to stand-by
position for frothing. The green steam
light will go on (see fig. 2;R), indicat-
ing that the machine is ready to froth.

5.4 Frothing Milk Only

Only fill water in the lower part of the
water tank (see fig. 10). Make sure
that no water covers the upper valve.
Push the on button (see fig. 2; P). The
red light will illuminate. After approx.
50 seconds the green "Steam Ready"
light will illuminate. Now you are
ready to froth.

5.5 Producing Frothed Milk

Place a cup underneath the frothing
sleeve (see positioning on cover of
instruction book), and then turn the
steam selector switch to the position
"Steam On." Make sure the knob sits
parallel to the joint (see fig. 7). The
PACS System will automatically
dispense warm frothed milk into your
cup. When you have enough frothed
milk, turn the steam selector back to
the position "Steam Off" (see fig. 2;
T). As long as you have water in the
lower part of the water container, you
can continue frothing milk. When you
are finished, disconnect the milk
container and store with any unused
milk in the refrigerator.
5.6 Regulating Milk Froth and
Temperature
Maximum milk flow with maximum
froth is achieved when the knob sits
parallel to the joint (see fig. 7). By
slightly turning the knob towards the
front or the back (approx. 20 to 40
degrees; see fig. 9) the flow of milk
will be slowed down, increasing the
milk temperature and decreasing the
amount of froth. The temperature of
the milk can vary between 110˚ F and
175˚ F depending on the position of
the knob. Attention: If you turn the
knob too much the milk will splatter. If
the knob sits perpendicular to the
joint (see fig. 8), the flow of milk is
totally blocked. Only hot steam will
pass through the PACS System.

5.7 Green Steam Light Off

When the machine is turned on and
coffee brewing is finished, CoffeeTEC
will automatically go into stand-by for
frothing, indicated by the green steam
light. The steam light will cycle
between on and off. If the light is off
and you want to froth, place a cup
underneath the frothing sleeve and
turn the steam selector (see fig. 2; T)
to the position "Steam On." Within 20
seconds, the steam heating system
will heat up, the green steam light will
come on, and frothing will start.
5.8 Recommendations for
Cappuccino and Latte
If you want to serve multiple cups of
cappuccino and latte at the same
time, we recommend frothing your
milk directly into your cups and then
