CAPPUCCINO
Cappuccino takes its name from the chocolate hues of the robes worn by the Capuchin monks who
favored this delicious dessert coffee. While cappuccino is traditionally made up of espresso and
frothed milk, it can be tailored to one's own taste with cinnamon, sugar,chocolate flakes or.even
liquor. Its versatility makes cappuccino a world-wide gourmet choice.

with the amount of water which is required to make the amount of espresso plus additional water
for frothing milk(see markings on container). Traditionally,when making cappuccino you use a
cup with at least a 5 oz. capacity.
2. Fill a small pitcher 113to 1/2full with fresh. cold milk and set aside. If the "Perfect Froth" attachment
is not in place at this time, attach "Perfect Froth" now (see figure 9).
