FROTHING MILK
To prepare a traditional cappuccino or latte, we recommend:
·
Using cold, fresh whole milk. The density of the frothed milk will depend on the milk
fat content.
·
Using stainless steel, circular, rounded milk jugs, narrower at the top, with a spout,
necessary to make cappuccino decorations.
Before starting, it is important to slightly move the Steam Wand outwards in order
to insert the jug directly under it and facilitate the movements required to froth the
milk correctly.
Continue as follows:
1.
Press the Steam Button. The temperatures Ready Indicator will turn off if the
temperature is not high enough to make steam. Once the preheating has
finished, the temperatures Ready Indicator will turn blue.
2.
Totate the Steam Control Knob slightly counterclockwise to eliminate any conden-
sation from the Steam Wand then close the knob again.
3.
Place the jug, half-filled with cold milk, under the Steam Wand.
4.
Place the steam nozzle just below the surface 1cm/0.4inch-deep of the milk. If it is
inserted too deep, the milk will not be frothed; if it is not inserted deep enough,
big bubbles will be produced and then disappear immediately.
It is important to keep the nozzle not at the centre but close to the edge of the jug,
with an appropriate angle to produce a stronger vortex.
