Dip the tip of the hot water / steam wand at least 1 cm into the milk, before star-
ting the steam function. Otherwise, the milk could splash out of your vessel (e.g. the
provided milk jug).
Note:
For optimum milk texturing performance, it is crucial that the hole in the hot water
/ steam wand tip is clear. Even with a partially blocked hole the ability of the hot
water / steam wand to produce sufficient froth may be affected. Prior to texturing
milk, purge the hot water / steam wand via a steam burst. After texturing, always
wipe the hot water / steam wand to remove residues of milk, and then purge
again with steam.
Note:
Texturing milk is somewhat easier with the stainless steel tube of the hot water /
steam wand installed correctly (see: 'Cleaning the Hot Water / Steam Wand').
However, the stainless steel tube is not obligatory.
1. Ensure that the water tank is filled with a sufficient amount of water. The filling
level must lie between MIN (approx. 100 ml) and MAX (approx. 1.5 litres). If
required, empty the drip tray. Switch on the appliance and wait until the POWER
button is illuminated continuously.
2. Fill the milk jug with cold, fresh milk to below the spout position (approx. half full).
Note:
When using another vessel, ensure to fill it only half full too to prevent the milk from
overflowing.
3. By the handle, turn the hot water / steam wand to the drip tray. Then press the
STEAM button to select the steam function. The STEAM button will flash. To
remove any condensed water from the system, turn the selection dial to the HOT
WATER / STEAM position until steam is produced. Then turn the selection dial
back to the vertical position.
4. By the handle, turn the hot water / steam wand to the front of the appliance and,
at an angle, insert the hot water / steam wand tip 1 – 2 cm below the surface of
the milk close to the wall of the milk jug.
WARNING:
steam function still operating. Otherwise, hot milk could splash and hot steam will
escape. Always turn the selection dial to the vertical position, before removing the
milk jug.
