How to Froth Milk:
Before You Start:
Froth milk in a stainless steel pitcher. In the process of
frothing, the milk will double or triple in volume, so be
sure to use a pitcher large enough to accommodate the
increased volume. Cold milk will froth more easily than
milk at room temperature.

Before frothing milk, point steam wand over drain pan
and pull steam handle all the way down. This releases
any moisture which may have collected inside the
steam wand.
Place half of the tip of the
steam wand into the milk.
Pull the steam handle 3/4
of the way down. Frothed
milk will start to form as
long as the tip of the steam
wand is half submerged in
the surface of the milk. (It
should take no longer than
10-15 seconds to froth one
cup of milk.)
Slowly move the pitcher up
and down while keeping
the tip of the steam wand
near the surface of the
frothed milk. The amount
of frothed milk will
continue to increase.
The remaining milk can be
steamed/heated by
submerging the wand into
the remaining milk. Turn
off steam while tip of steam
wand is still submerged.
Note: Be careful not to
scald milk. This may occur
if milk is steamed too long.
Important: After frothing milk and removing pitcher
from steam wand, point steam wand over drain pan
and pull steam handle all the way down. This expels
any milk which may be in the steam wand. Wipe
excess milk off steam wand, immediately after every
steaming.

Submerge the tip of the steam
wand into the middle of the
pitcher of milk and pull the
steam handle all the way
down. Heat milk to the
desired temperature. Do not
scald milk by steaming too
long. Milk is scalded once it
reaches the boiling point. (It
should take no longer than
15-20 seconds to steam one
cup of milk.)
Slowly move the pitcher up
and down, but keep the tip
submerged.
Some cafe latte drinkers like
a slight amount of foam on
top of their steamed milk.
To do this, bring the top half
of the steam tip out of the
milk for a few seconds, then
submerge steam wand back
into the milk. This will create
froth. Turn off steam.
Remove steam wand from milk.
