Frothing For A Cappuccino Or Latté - Dualit ESPRESSIVO Mode D'emploi

DCM1 instruction manual_figs out.qxp
A traditional cappuccino consists of an espresso with
steamed milk topped with a 1 cm thick milk froth. A latté
comprises the same ratio of espresso to milk, but all the
milk is frothed to create a more velvety texture.
1. Prepare your espresso as shown previously.
2. Before using the steam wand (14), remove the filter
holder (7) from the brewhead (6).
3. Make sure the machine is on and that the Steam
/Water selector (13) is set to the steam setting.
4. The temperture indicator light (12) will go out when
the correct tempurture for frothing has been reached.
4. Put the froth nozzle (16) on the end of the steam
wand. It needs a firm push to locate it in place.
5. Swing the steam wand to the side of the machine.
6. Pour cold milk into a stainless steel jug. Use about
100 ml or a quarter of a mug for each cappuccino or
latté. For best results, use fresh milk taken from the
fridge. It is easier to make froth using cold skimmed or
semi-skimmed milk; full fat milk won't produce as
much froth, nor will it last as long.
