Preparing Steam - Krups EA8050 Manual

Steam froths up the milk to make a cappuccino or a caffe latte, for example, and also heats up liquids. As you need a higher
temperature to produce steam than to make an espresso, the appliance runs an additional pre-heating phase for steam.
BE CAREFUL, BECAUSE THE CYCLE DOES NOT STOP IMMEDIATELY.
We recommend that you use pasteurised or UHT milk that has been recently opened. Untreated milk does not
give the best results. After the steam function has been used, the nozzle can be hot, and we recommend that
you wait for a few moments before handling it.

To prevent milk from drying on the auto-cappuccino accessory, it must be cleaned thoroughly. It is recommend that you
wash it immediately by carrying out a cycle with steam and the accessory pot filled with water in order to clean the
inside of the nozzle. To do so, you can use liquid cleaner XS4000, available as an accessory.

PREPARING STEAM

While the screen displays the drink selection menu, press the "steam" key
will inform you that the appliance is being pre-heated. Once the pre-heating phase has
been completed, a message will ask you to place a recipient under the steam nozzle.
Press the "steam" key again to start generating steam. A little water will be produced
first and then steam will start. Use the same key to stop steam generation.

You can remove the steam nozzle for thorough cleaning. Wash it
using a brush with water and a little non-abrasive washing up
liquid. Rinse and dry it. Before re-fitting, make certain that the air
to stop inlet holes are not clogged by milk residues. Clean out the holes
with a needle if necessary.
