5. Turn the steam release knob counter clockwise to release steam into the milk. Keep the pitcher slightly tilted so that you can always see the position of the nozzle when you froth the milk. The frothing nozzle should be below the surface of the milk but not so far as to allow the top of the frothing nozzle into the milk. Your milk will begin to froth immediately. As the froth rises, keep lowering the pitcher so that the tip of the frothing nozzle is always just slightly beneath the surface of the rising foam. 6. When the milk has doubled in volume insert the frothing nozzle deeper into the milk in order to heat the milk. If using a beverage thermometer the ideal temperature of the milk when finished is 150-170ºF or 66º-77ºC. NOTE: Do not allow the milk to boil. You know this has happened if there is a sudden growth in the milk and large bubbles start to form on the surface of the milk. 7. Close the steam release knob by turning it clockwise while the nozzle is still immersed in the milk. This will avoid splattering of the hot milk. If you prefer a "stiff" froth, let the frothed milk stand for a minute. 8. Allow the espresso to finish brewing. Turn the espresso maker off by pressing the button. 9. Pour the espresso into a cup large enough for the espresso/frothed milk combination. Add the steamed milk and spoon on the frothed milk. • Do not unscrew the boiler cap while the machine is in operation. Wait until brewing cycle is completed, all water and steam has been used and the machine is switched off. • Use caution when removing the filter holder, as the metal parts may remain hot for some time. • Thoroughly clean the steam wand and frothing nozzle after each use to ensure satisfactory and trouble free frothing. STEAMING/FROTHING WITHOUT ESPRESSO (USING STEAM PLUG) 1. Make sure both the Espresso and Caffé switches are off. Make sure your 3 in 1 Coffee Center is cool enough to handle and the pressure has been released. 2. Insert the steam build-up plug into the filter holder then insert the filter holder into the appliance. To insert the filter holder, line up the arrow located on the thumb guard of tie filter holder with the arrow on the left side of the machine. Raise the filter holder up into brewing head and turn the filter holder firmly to the right, until it can go no further. The arrow on the filter holder should be as far right in the lock-range as possible. If the arrow is not at least in the middle of the lock-range, remove the filter holder and insert it again as described above until the arrow is within the lock-range. This procedure will prevent the filter holder from being dislodged as pressure builds up during the brewing process. 3. For steam only, do not fill the glass espresso carafe above the 2-cup marking. Fill the boiler chamber with cold water. Have your frothing pitcher with 4oz of fresh cold milk ready to heat. 13
