steam wand
6.8.1 Tips regarding its use
• Onlyfroththeamountofmilkthatyouintendtouse;once
heated, the milk will have to be completely poured out of
the jug and cannot be reheated.
• The automatic steam wand only guarantees an accuracy
of ± 3°C between the set temperature and the actual milk
temperature, if the starting milk temperature is 4°C.
• As the steam automatically stops dispensing when the set
milktemperatureisreached,onlyllthejughalfwayin
order to prevent the milk froth from spilling out.
• Use a suitably-sized jug for the amount of milk that requires
frothing (approx. 200 ml is recommended) and make sure
that it is circular and not conical (see the image).
