How to Froth Milk for a
Cappuccino or Latté
A cappuccino is an espresso topped
with steamed and frothed milk
(1⁄3 espresso, 1⁄3 steamed milk, 1⁄3
frothed milk), traditionally served in a
ceramic cup at 60°C-70°C.
A latte is an espresso topped
with steamed and frothed milk (1⁄3
espresso, topped with steamed
milk and about 1cm of frothed
milk), traditionally served in a glass
wrapped with a serviette.
•
Make sure the Brew/Steam
Selector Control is in the
‘STANDBY’ position.
•
•
Plug the power cord into a 230V or
240V power outlet and switch on.

cappuccino/latte is to make a
short espresso (Follow steps in
‘How to make an Espresso’).
•
•
The Pressure Indicator Button
on the Water Tank Cap will rise

is achieved.
When sufficient coffee has flowed
into the cups, turn the Selector
Control back to the ‘STANDBY’
position.This will stop the flow
of coffee.
•
•
Fill the frothing jug 1⁄3 full with cold
milk (skim milk is the easiest to froth).

froth enhancer. Immerse the froth
enhancer 10mm into the milk
and rotate the Selector Control
to the ‘STEAM’ position . Gently
move the frothing jug in a circular
motion around the froth enhancer.
When the milk begins to increase
in volume, immerse the froth
enhancer deeper into the milk to
further heat the milk. Do not allow
the milk to boil.
Turn the Selector Control to
the ‘STANDBY’ position to stop
the steaming function before
removing the jug.
Add the steamed milk to each cup
of freshly brewed espresso coffee
and spoon on the frothed milk.

Coffee Making Tips
The Coffee
The Grind
•
Pre-ground coffee will only retain
its flavour for 1 week, provided it is
stored in an air tight container, in a
cool, dark area.
•
The coffee must be ground fine,
but not too fine (the correct grind
should look gritty, like sand or salt).
•
If the grind is too fine, the
water will not flow though the
coffee even under pressure (this
grind looks like powder and
feels like flour when rubbed
between fingers).
•
•
Whole coffee beans are
recommended and should be
ground just before use.
Coffee beans stored in an
airtight container will keep up to
1 month before they begin to lose
their flavour.
•
If the grind is too coarse, the
water flows through the coffee too
fast, preventing a full flavoured
extraction.
•
Do not store in a refrigerator
or freezer.

Drinks to Try
Espresso
Macchiato
Intense and aromatic, an espresso,
or short black as it’s also known, uses
about 7g of ground coffee. It is served
in a small cup or glass to a level of
approximately 35mm.
A macchiato consists of shot or more
of espresso, topped with a small
amount of frothed milk.
Long Black
A long black is served as a single
or double espresso, poured over
hot water.
Cappuccino
A cappuccino is very light and is
usually served between 60°C and
70°C.This has one-third espresso, one-
third milk and one-third frothed milk.
Ristretto
Meaning restricted, a ristretto is
an extremely short espresso of
approximately 15mm, distinguished
by its intense flavour and aftertaste.
Caffe Latté
Served in a glass with a serviette,
a caffe latté consists of one-third
espresso, topped with steamed milk
and about 1cm of foam.

The filter holder, stainless steel filters
and drip tray can be washed with
soapy water.The drip tray consists
of 2 parts and can be removed
for easier cleaning. (Fig. 6).
It is Essential to Clean the
Steam System after Each Use
•
Ensure the Selector Control is in
the ‘STANDBY’ position and the
steam pressure has been released.
•
Remove the froth enhancer
from the steam tube and nozzle
for cleaning and wipe the
steam tube and nozzle with
a damp cloth.
•
Remove the steam nozzle from
the steam tube by unscrewing
in a counter-clockwise direction
using the cleaning tool provided
(Fig. 7). Clean the steam nozzle
by removing it and letting water
run through it for about 10

seconds in the direction opposite
to the normal steam flow. If the
nozzle is still blocked clean it with
the other end of the cleaning
tool provided (Fig. 8).
•
•
Turn the Selector Control to
‘STEAM’ and allow the
appliance to produce steam for
4-5 seconds to clear the steam
tube. The filter holder does not
have to be locked into position.
Turn the Selector Control to
‘STANDBY’, switch off at the power
outlet, remove the plug and allow
the appliance to cool.
Fig. 7
Fig. 8
NOTE: Do not place any of the
components in the dishwasher.
•
•
Remove all steam pressure by
following the instructions on
Page 10.
After the steam pressure has been
released, remove the water tank
cap and discard the remaining
water (always empty the water
tank between uses).
•
The steam nozzle must be screwed
back onto the steam tube in a
clockwise direction and tightened
using reasonable force with the
end of the cleaning tool provided.

•
When the solution has run through
the appliance (make sure that
all the solution has run out and
there is no steam pressure in the
appliance), turn the Selector
Control to the ‘STANDBY’ position,
switch off at the power outlet and
remove the plug and allow the
appliance to cool.
After decalcifying, rinse the
water tank thoroughly and refill
with cold tap water.
Repeat the above procedures
several times by running clear the
water through the filter holder and
through the steam nozzle (half
each).This should remove any
possible residual after taste left by
decalcifying agent.
Decalcifying
Hard water can cause limestone build
up in and on the inner functioning
components, reducing the brewing
flow, power of the appliance, and
affecting the quality of coffee.
We advise decalcifying the appliance
on a regular basis (once a month)
using a liquid decalcifying agent.
Follow the instructions provided or use
the following as a guide:
•
•
Diluted solution (for softer water)
•
•
1 part decalcifying agent
2 parts cold tap water
Concentrated solution
(for harder water)
•
•
1 part decalcifying agent
1 part cold tap water
•
Replace the stainless steel filter
and the appliance is ready to use.
Decalcifying the appliance
•
Ensure the Selector Control is
in the ‘STANDBY’ position, the
appliance is switched off at the
power outlet and that the plug
is disconnected.
NOTE: The stainless steel
filters should not come in
contact with any decalcifying
agents. Do not use powdered
decalcifying agents.
•
•
Ensure the appliance is cool
and all steam pressure in the
appliance has been released.
Remove the stainless steel filter
from the filter holder and place
the filter holder back in position.
Place an empty cup on the drip
tray, under the filter holder.
Remove the water tank cap and
pour in the decalcifying solution.
Screw the water tank cap back
on (make sure the cap is on tight).
Plug the appliance into the
power outlet and turn the power
switch on.
WARNING: To avoid
possible burns from
hot steam and water,
never open the water
tank cap while there is
pressure in the water
tank. Remove all

pressure first.
•
Turn the Selector Control to the
