Preparing Cappuccino
Cappuccino is a delicious blend of espresso, steamed milk and frothed milk.
CAUTION: To avoid scalding or burns, do not open the water tank safety lid or remove the Filter Holder during
the brewing process or when the POWER light is illuminated.
NOTE: To prepare 4 cups of cappuccino, fill the carafe with 4 cups of cool, clean water for espresso + 1 steam
level of water for steaming.
1. Follow the detailed procedures for brewing espresso outlined in this Instruction Manual.
This should be added making reference to the previous espresso description.
2. While espresso coffee is brewing, fill a deep, metal or ceramic pitcher half full with fresh,
cold skim milk and place it next to the Espresso Maker.
3. Once espresso coffee has finished brewing to the desired 4 cup mark on the Glass Carafe, turn the
function knob to OFF.
4. Hold the pitcher by the handle and bring up to the steam jet. Insert the "Perfect Froth" tip just under the
surface of the milk. Turn the function knob gradually to
motion, and continue to froth the milk.
REMINDER: To avoid splattering, the tip must remain just under the surface of the milk. Otherwise,
splattering may occur.
IMPORTANT: When frothing milk, the volume of milk will double. The top half will be frothed, the bottom
half will be milk.
5. After frothing, turn the function knob back to OFF.
6. Remove the pitcher from the steam jet.
CAUTION: Before removing the Filter Holder, or the water tank safety lid, turn the function knob to
(steam) and wait until no further steam is emitted from the steam jet. This will allow any extra steam to
be released and will clean the steam jet of any excess milk. Then turn the function knob back to the OFF
position.
7. Fill a cappuccino cup 1/3 full of freshly brewed espresso. Pour in an equal amount of warm milk and spoon
frothed milk on top.
8. Dust froth with cocoa powder, fresh grated nutmeg or cinnamon and enjoy a delicious, freshly brewed
cappuccino.
