9 MAKING STEAM / PREPARING
CAPPUCCINO
Steam can be used to froth the milk for
cappuccinos but also to heat bevera-
ges.
Scalding hazard!
Splashing may occur at the start – scald-
ing hazard! The hot water nozzle and pipe
can reach high temperatures: avoid touching
directly with your hands.
When the appliance is ready to dispense cof-
fee, press the button (25), the LEDs (23) and
(24) switch off. The appliance goes through
a preheating period; during this phase, the
LED (25) fl ashes.
• Before dispensing steam, wait for the green
temperature-ready LED (25) to light up in
a fi xed way; this indicates that the correct
operative temperature has been reached.
• Direct the steam nozzle (14) towards the
drip tray and turn the "hot water/steam"
knob (16) for a few seconds so that any re-
sidual water comes out of the steam nozzle.
Continue until only steam is dispensed.
• Turn the knob (16) to OFF.
• Fill 1/3 of the vessel that you wish to use to
make cappuccino with cold milk.
For best results when making cappuc-
cinos, the milk and the used cup should
be cold.
• Immerse the steam nozzle into the milk to
be frothed and turn the knob (16); turn the
container slowly with up-down movements
to make uniform frothing (Fig.16).
• After using the steam for the desired time,
shut off the steam (16).
• The same system can be used to heat other
beverages.
• Clean the steam nozzle with a damp cloth
(Fig.17)
