FROTHING MILK
GOOD TO KNOW – PRACTISE AFTER USING STEAM
If you want to make an espresso after using the steam function, you need to cool down
your coee machine because the water is too hot for optimum espresso preparation.
Follow the steps below:
- Make sure the knob is on position •
- Press the coee selection button (49).
- The steam indicator light is orange indicating the coee machine is too hot for
espresso preparation (50).
- Immerse the steam nozzle completely in a container lled with 60ml of water (18).
- Turn the knob to the right, to the steam position (51) to release the hot water and
steam inside the boiler, in order to cool down the machine,
- After around 10 to 20 seconds, you will see the orange indicator light switches o
and the coee indicator light starting blinking (21, 52). That indicates the machine
is cooled down to the right temperature for espresso preparation.
- Turn the knob to position • to stop the operation (37).

IMPORTANT! After switching o the steam function, clean the nozzle
immediately and carefully.
B. With E.S.E. pods - only on model XP384
You can use E.S.E. pods to make your espresso. They can be recognised by the logo above.
1 E.S.E. pod = 1 cup of espresso
Coee preparation steps are identical to section A. With ground coee, except:
1. Insert the lter for coee pods (E.S.E.) into the portalter (32).
2. Place the pod as centrally as possible in the portalter (33). Follow the instructions
on the packaging of the coee pods for correct placement of the pod in the
portalter. Pods (E.S.E.) are designed to make one cup of coee. Using two pods
on top of each other is not recommended.
1. The machine is turned on and the coee indicator light stays on (12).
2. Place a cup under the steam nozzle (34).
3. Turn the knob to the right, to the steam position (35). Machine starts making hot
water (36).
4. To stop hot water, turn the knob back to the position • (37).
The steam will foam the milk (for example to make cappuccinos).
1. Plug in your machine (2).
2. Remove the water tank and ll it (3). The water level should not exceed the “MAX”
mark on the tank and should contain at least 300 ml (4). Then replace the water
tank, ensuring that the cover is closed (5).
3. Press the On/O button (6); the coee indicator light is blinking (7). The knob is
set to position •.
4. Press the steam selection button (16). The steam indicator light is blinking which
indicates that preheating is in progress (17).
5. Once preheating has nished, the steam indicator light stays on (19).
TIP to remove condensed water in the nozzle and ensure a good frothing:
- Just before frothing your milk, place an empty receptacle or cup underneath
the nozzle (18)
- Open the nozzle system by turning the knob to the right, to the steam
preparation (20) to run for 5 seconds the steam through the system (38)
- Turn the knob to position • (22).
6. To make a cappuccino, ll a container with approximately 100 ml of milk (1/3 max
of the container) (39).
TIP:
- For best results, use a narrow and relatively small container that can be
slipped under the steam nozzle
- The milk and container should be very cold.
- We recommend using whole pasteurized or UHT milk
7. Place the steam nozzle into the milk container (40) and turn the knob to the right,
to the steam position (20).
8. For best results, take care not to touch the bottom of the container and make
sure that the nozzle does not leave the milk. Then the steam nozzle will do the
foaming for you (41).
9. Once you have achieved the best foam (42), turn the knob to position • (22).
IMPORTANT / To prevent overheating the milk, do not use the steamer for more than
45 seconds (for 100ml of milk).
TIP: To prevent milk from drying inside the nozzle, clean it after each use:
- Unplug the machine (43)
- (be careful it is hot) Remove the steam nozzle tube (44) and wash it in clean water (45).
- Clean the steam nozzle using a damp cloth (46, 47).
- Replace the tube on the steam nozzle (48).
