Cleaning The Perfect Froth Attachment; Cleaning The Machine - Krups ESPRESSO PRONTO 988 Instruction Book

oj
If you are making more than
one or two cups of cappuc-
cino, it is recommended
that you place the finished
espresso on top of the war-
ming plate with a cloth or
saucer covering the cups.
This will help to keep the
espresso hot.
Attention:
The top closure of the "Per-
fect Froth" attachment (see
figure 24, part A) has a
very fine hole which draws
air into the milk. If this tiny
hole gets clogged, "Perfect
Froth" will not work pro-
perly. Therefore, never
immerse the top closure in
milk or froth.
If you wish to prepare
espresso immediately after
using the steam nozzle, the
machine must be cooled
down to the proper brewing
temperature. (When fro-
thing milk, the temperature
of the water is much hotter
than when you are brewing
espresso.)
In order that you do not
burn your next batch of
espresso, insert the clean
filter holder into the machi-
neand turn the control dial
to" a ". Allow '/2 cup of
water to run through the
machine.
This process cools the
machine sufficiently to
prepare additional cups
of espresso.
