MANUAL MILK TEXTURING
• Lift the steam wand and insert into the
milk jug with the steam wand tip 1-2cm
(O inch) below the surface of the milk,
close to the right-hand side of the jug
at a 3 o'clock position.
• Press the STEAM button to begin texturing
• Keep the steam wand tip just under the
surface of the milk until the milk is spinning
clockwise, producing a vortex (whirlpool
effect).
• With the milk spinning, slowly lower the jug.
This will bring the steam wand tip to the
surface of the milk and start to introduce air
into the milk.
• Gently break the surface of the milk with the
tip to get the milk spinning fast enough.
• Keep the steam wand tip at or slightly
below the surface, continuing to maintain
the vortex. Texture the milk until sufficient
volume is obtained.
• Lift the jug to lower the tip beneath the
surface but keep the vortex spinning. The
milk is at the correct temperature (60-65°C)
when the jug is hot to touch.
• When texturing is close to acceptable
desired result, press any button to stop
texturing.
• After the steam is released completely,
remove the steam wand from the milk jug.
• Wipe the wand and tip with a clean
damp cloth.
STEAM WAND MANUAL PURGE
To reduce steam wand blockages, we
recommend running steam through the steam
wand after milk texturing. Lower and point
steam wand directly on drip tray and away
from users and press the steam button to run
steam to rinse steam wand, or press and hold
steam button for 3 seconds, to activate the
steam wand purge. This will run short water
pulses through the steam wand.
NOTE
Both 1 Cup and 2 Cup buttons will blink during
the steam purge function.
WARNING
After pressing steam button, the steam can't
stop immediately, it needs a few seconds to
completely stop steam.
STEAM WAND BLOCKED
Regularly check steam performance. If the
steam wand is blocked, it will immediately stop
operating. See 'Cleaning the Steam Wand' for
further instructions.
HOT WATER OPERATON
Hot water through the steam wand
When machine is on 'ready mode', press
hot water button, and hot water flow will start
through the steam wand. Press any button to
stop hot water flow.
WARNING
Cup temperature is at 90°C (194°F). Be
careful in handling hot beverages.
