11. With the jug in hand tap the jug on
the bench top to release the trapped
air bubbles and then swirl the jug in a
circular motion until the milk becomes
shiny and no bubbles remain, this helps
the milk and froth combine for an even
consistency. By swirling the milk you can
see the foam in the jug swirling with your
movement this will enable you to judge
the thickness of your foam.
Using the hot water function
When using the hot water function the
espresso machine needs to be in espresso/hot
water mode, so the red light on the power
button and the orange light on the
button
are illuminated.
Note: Should the espresso machine not be in
espresso/hot water mode, so the orange light
on the
button is not on, the coffee maker
needs to press the
button to activate the
espresso/hot water mode.
The hot water function is ideal for preparing
long blacks, hot chocolate and filling coffee
plungers and tea pots.
1. Place the cup or container under the
steam/hot water nozzle and activate the
hot water function by turning the steam
operating dial to the
steam setting (33).
2. Once you have dispensed the required
amount of hot water into the cup or
container, close the hot water by turning
the operating dial to the off position (34).
3. Remove the cup or container and swing the
steam/hot water wand over the drip tray to
catch any drips of water (35).
