Preparing Cappuccino; Frothing Milk; Making Hot Water - Gaggia Espresso pure Serie Instrucciones De Uso

Preparing cappuccino:

When preparing to make a cappuccino, have all of the ingre-
dients at hand as well as a frothing pitcher (or mug) halffi lled
with skimmed or low-fat milk and cups that are larger (6 oz.)
than those used for espresso.

Frothing Milk:

The higher the fat content in the milk the denser the froth
will be.
The Turbo-Frother (8) or the cappuccino maker pos.24 will give
you all the froth required but don't let milk come to a boil.
It may require two or three attempts to "become an expert" but
you will be successful at frothing milk if you give it a chance.
Swivel the Turbo- Frother steam nozzle (or milk frother) slightly
outward so that you can get the frothing pitcher under the
nozzle without knocking the base of the machine.
Turbo frother steam nozzle version:
Steam can be used to froth the milk for cappuccinos and also
to heat beverages.
Caution! Scalding hazard! Splashing may occur
at the start – scalding hazard! The hot water
nozzle and pipe can reach high temperatures:
avoid touching it directly with your hands.
1 Make espresso (in a large cups) as described above
2 With the machine ready to deliver coffee, convey the pipe
over the drip tray (12), open the "Hot water/steam" tap
knob (7) for a few seconds so to let the remaining water
come out of the steam pipe; after a few seconds only
steam will come out.
3 Close the steam/hot water tap knob(7).
4 Press steam switch (4).
5 After 50 to 60 seconds or, when temperature ready-light
(5) goes on, place the frothing pitcher halffi lled with low-fat
milk under Turbo Frother steam nozzle so that tip is just
under the surface of the milk. See Fig.03.
6 Slowly turn steam valve knob (7) counter clockwise to
release steam.
IMPORTANT. The more you turn the knob, the greater
the steam pressure for frothing.
N.B.: Dispensing should not exceed 60 seconds.
7 Move pitcher in circular motion keeping the tip of steam
nozzle just under surface of milk as it begins to froth. Do
not let milk come to a boil since it will not froth.
8 When you have made enough froth,turn steam knob
clockwise to shut off steam and remove pitcher. Put steam
switch (4).
9 Spoon the froth onto the espresso in each cup and gently
pour the hot milk along the side of the cup. Top each cup
of cappuccino with a dash of cinnamon, cocoa and nutmeg.
Serve.
10 NOTE: If you want to make more espresso immediately
after steaming milk, the machi-ne boiler must be refi lled
with water and temperature brought down to a brewing
temperature.
Otherwise, espresso may taste "burned".
Warning! If coffee is brewed without reducing
the temperature through water dispensing, you
may get burnt!
To do this: place an empty cup on drip plate. Do not insert
fi lter holder. Press the coffee/hot water switch (2) to fi ll
the cup with water. Press again switch (2).
You many now proceed to make more espresso.

5 Slowly turn the steam knob (7) counterclockwise and press
the hot water/coffee switch (2) to dispense hot water.
N.B.: Dispensing should not exceed 60 seconds.
