Procedure to measure the milk froth height.
Manual system (CMF)
Pour cc. of milk at Trefr. in a beaker of  ml of capacity and with a inner diameter of  mm; with
machine in steam mode:
. Place the beaker with the frother dipped in milk, dispensing steam and start the chronometer.
. After about  to  seconds, stop the steam and check the result on milk.
. Do not use it with an intermediate position.
Automatic system (Latte Go)
After setting the machine to delivery of gr. of product:
. Launch the “hot milk” function.
. Collect the product in a beaker with a ml of capacity and with an inner diameter of  mm, and verify
the result obtained on milk. Carry out the test using milk at a Trefr..
In case the machine allows modify of the emulsion through the menu, use the machine with the emulsion set
to the default value.
Related to the above testing procedure derives the following table of acceptability:
Grams of product Minimun height of the milk cream
≥ 130 ≥ 30mm
120 ≥25mm
110 ≥ 22mm
100 ≥ 20mm
90 ≥ 16mm
80 ≥ 13mm
70 ≥ 11mm
To verify the height of the cream, a practical example is to add to dispensed product a small amount of
coee. The addition of coee immediately highlights the surface of separation between liquid and cream.
