Fig.10
● Make cup of cappuccino with the express coffee.
● Use a high and narrow jug, half-filled with milk.
● Place the jug under the spout so that the nozzle
touches the bottom.
● Turn on the steam tap (6 - Fig.8) and lower the jug
so that the nozzle is almost at the surface of the
milk.
● Continuously move the jug up and down so that
the nozzle moves in and out of the milk, causing it
to froth.
● Turn off the steam tap and pour the milk into the
cup.
Immediately after carrying out this operation,
clean the spout with a sponge or a clean cloth
so that the milk does not dry on it. Be careful
as the spout is hot and may burn your hand.

8.3. Heating a beverage

● Immerse the steam spout into the liquid to be
heated.
● Gradually turn on the steam tap 6 Fig.8; the steam
that bursts in the liquid heats it to the desired tem-
perature.
● Turn off the steam tap when the desired tempera-
ture has been reached.
Immediately after carrying out this operation,
clean the spout with a sponge or clean cloth.
Be careful as the spout is hot and may burn
your hand.

8.4. Preparing tea, camomile, etc.

● Place the jug under the hot water spout and turn
the water tap 5. When the desired quantity has
been obtained, turn off the tap.
● Add the beverage desired.
When purified water is used, these beverages often
assume a darker colour.
Should the user prefer a lighter coloured drink, draw
fresh water from an ordinary tap and proceed with
the heating phase as described in point 8.3.
