10. Drawing off steam
Make sure the nozzle has engaged properly. If the nozzle is
clogged with dried milk or has not been attached properly, it
might suddenly come off during operation.
To ensure perfect operation, clean the 2-stage frothing jet
(24) regularly. Use the opening provided on the handle of the
measuring spoon for the purpose to unscrew the 2-stage
frothing nozzle (Fig. 14). Thoroughly rinse the 3 parts under
running water.
Steam can be used for heating liquids and frothing milk for
cappuccino. When heating liquids, make sure the 2-stage
frothing jet (24) is pushed up. To froth liquids, push the
2-stage frothing jet (Fig. 5) downwards, turning it slightly.
A small amount of water leaks from the jet when you start
frothing. This does not affect the result, e.g. when frothing
milk.
There might be some initial splashing when drawing off
steam. The steam jet gets hot. Avoid direct contact with the
skin!
