STEAM WAND
STEAMING MILK
1. Fill a pitcher with cold milk.
2. Remove excess water (condensation) from the steam wand by pressing the ‘Steam
Button’. Wait until steam exits from the steam wand. Press the ‘Steam Button’ again to
shut off the steam supply.
3. Place the steam wand in the milk. Place the tip of the wand just beneath the surface of
the milk.
4. Press the ‘Steam Button’.
5. As the milk froths and rises, slowly lower the pitcher to keep the tip of the steam wand
just under the surface of the milk. If there is a loud gurgling sound, the wand has left the
milk and should be lowered a little. There should be a constant hissing sound throughout
the entire steaming process.
6. Keep the tip in this position for about 12 to 15 seconds. After that, plunge the Steam
Wand to the bottom of the pitcher and place the pitcher on the drip tray. The wand
should now be fully immersed and in the center of the pitcher.
7. When the wand shuts off (at approximately 160 degrees F), lower the pitcher away from
the wand and wipe the wand with a damp towel. Be careful not to touch the hot wand
with your hands. Purge the steam wand by pressing the ‘Steam Button’ twice in a row
(on and off).
The steam wand is movable and has a
rubber sleeve for handling when the
wand is hot.
The wand is equipped with a
temperature probe, which automatically
turns off when the milk temperature
reaches the preset temperature (about
160 degrees F).
