Sklm milk or 2% will be the easiest to froth.

on page 7.
The espresso will begin to flow in two
minutes.
When the espresso reaches the steaming mark
in the glass carafe, rotate the selector control knob
counter clockwise, or
away
from you. At that
time
the
boiler has generated enough pressure
and
steam
to
start
frothing
the
milk.
Frothing
the
milk
before finishing the
espresso prevents
you from
running
out of steam. This can happen if
you froth towards the end of the
brewing
process. Do not
be
alarmed
If
steam escapes.
Hold the pitcher below the frothing tube. Gently move
