results, we
recommend
frothing the
milk
in
a separate pitcher
and
pouring the milk into your coffee.
The
milk and pitcher should be
cold. Do not
use
a
pitcher
which
has just been washed in warm water.
When
preparing
cappuccino,
we recommend having all Ingredients on
hand.

the OFF position to the ON position, steam wiII

Gently
move the pitcher in a circular
motion around the steam nozzle. Because warm
milk does not froth, the milk should be frothed from
just
below the surface.
5.
When the milk has doubled
in
volume, insert the
steam nozzle
farther
down into milk to
further
heat the
milk.
To avoid splatlering of hot milk, do not
lift
the
steam nozzle above the surface of the milk until the
steam selector control knob is
in
the OFF position.
After the milk is frothed, set
the
pitcher
aside
and
allow the milk
.to
settle.

after
