and Insert In filter holder (see figure 9).
Depending on which filter basket you have
chosen, add one measunng spoon of espresso
coffee for each cup of espresso that you are
preparing (see figure 101.

IS regulating temperature.
Preparing Steam for
Cappuccino
Since a higher temperature IS necessary for
making steam than ISneeded for making
espresso, this espresso/cappuccino maker IS
furnished with a preheating mode for
steamrng/frothmg preparation. DUring this
preheating phase, a small amount of water
may emerge from the filter holder.
Use will need to use the steam pre-heat mode
before froth 109 milk for cappuccinO. To use
the steam pre-heat mode, turn the control
dial to the" VII'" position. When the yellow
temperature Indicator light goes out, turn the
control dial to "
~ " and begrn frothmg milk
(see FROTHING MILKFOR CAPPUCCINO).
NOTE:
Ifyou wish to prepare espresso Immediately
after steammg/frothmg, return the control dial
to the "0" position. Place an empty cup under
the filter holder and turn the control dial
to" Q"
CappuccinO
Frothing Milk
for Cappuccino
In addition to preparing espresso, your
"Novo Compact"/"Novo Compact Latte" may
be used to froth milk for cappuccino.
CapPuccino reportedly takes its name from
the chocolate hues of the robes worn by the
Capuchin monks who favored this delicIous
desert coffee. While cappuccino IS
traditionally made up of espresso and frothed
milk, it can be tailored to one's own taste with
cmnamon, sugar, chocolate flakes, or even
liquor. Its versatility makes capPuCCinO a
world-wide gourmet choice.
.
Step 1
. The first step In making cappuccinO ISto
make espresso. See section "Prepanng
Espresso" When preparing cappuccino
use a cappuccino cup which has a
capacity of at least 5 oz. You should fill
the cup 1/2way with espresso.
.If your "Perfect Froth" Attachment ISnot
already attached. attach it now
(see figure 161.
. Make sure that the control dial ISIn the
"0" position before turning on the machine.
. Once you have made your espresso, turn
the selector dial to the" 1f\J\" steam pre-
heat mode (see figure 171.Some water
may escape through the filter holder at
this time. Wait until the yellow thermostat
Indicator light ISextinguished before
turnmg to the" ($ " position.
Step 2
. Take a stamless steel frothing pitcher and
fill it 1/3 to 112full with fresh, cold milk
and set aSide. This amount of milk will
Yield enough froth for two cups of
cappuccinO. Ifyou need more froth,
repeat these steps.
. We recommend uSing skIm or 2% milk if
you prefer a stiff, dense froth. Use regular
milk ifyou prefer a more liqUidtype of froth.
Step 3
. When the yellow thermostat light goes
out. Insert the steam nozzle half way IOto
the milk and turn the control dial to " <!!!>"
(see figure 181.
. Leave the steam nozzle In the milk for
approximately 45-60 seconds, depending
on how much froth you want and the type
of milk you are uSing.
NOTE:
Do not bring milk to a boil (this will happen
if large bl,lbbles start formrng at the surface
of the milk).
Do not let the "Perfect Froth" attachment
touch the bottom of the pitcher. ThIs will
prevent you from frothing the milk.
