7. Angle the pitcher so that the

steam wand is resting on the

spout of the pitcher and

lower the pitcher until the tip

of the steam nozzle is just

below the surface of the

milk. This will start to create a whirlpool

action in the milk (34).

NOTE: Do not allow the steam to spurt unevenly

or it will create aerated froth/large bubbles. If

this is happening, raise the pitcher so that the

steam nozzle is lowered farther into the milk.
8. As the steam heats and textures the milk,

the level of the milk in the pitcher will begin

to rise. As this happens, follow the level of

the milk by lowering the pitcher, always

keeping the tip of the steam nozzle just

below the surface.

9. Once the foam is created,

raise the pitcher until the

steam nozzle is in the center

of the milk (35).

TIP: The amount of foam

required will vary depending on the drinks being

made. For example, a cappuccino requires more

foam than a latte.
10. Stop the steam immediately

by turning the steam and

hot water control dial to the

center position (36).

IMPORTaNT: Do not boil the milk.
11. Remove the pitcher,

immediately wipe the steam

nozzle and wand with a

clean damp cloth (37) and

purge a small amount of

steam.
