SLAYER STEAM X USER MANUAL
Steam Milk
Slayer Steam X Actuator has three positions. Move the lever up to purge out the steam
wand of built up condensation or the post steam purge to push out any steam wand
milk residue. OFF is the resting position. Press the lever downward to slide it into the ON
position for full steam ahead.
The following steps represent a good starting point when first using Slayer Steam X to
prepare milk.
RECOMMENDED SUPPLIES & EQUIPMENT
• Steaming pitcher
• Soft, clean towel
See complete list on page #9.
PROCEDURE
1. Fill a pitcher with the desired volume of fresh, cold milk.
2. Aim the steam wand toward the drain tray or into a towel and briefly move the
steam actuator up to the “purge” position to release steam and condensation.
3. Submerge the steam tip in milk and move the actuator to position A or B.
4. Move the pitcher down to expose the steam tip to the surface of the milk,
incorporating fine air bubbles.
5. Submerge the steam tip when the milk reaches body temperature, then tilt the
pitcher to form a whirlpool.
6. Turn off the steam wand when the pitcher feels hot to the touch. The final milk
temperature should be 55-65º C (130-150º F).
Wipe the steam wand with a damp cloth, removing all milk residue, then purge.
Protip: Purge the actuator twice within one second to activate a 30 second
run cycle, preheating the entire inline system. This feature enables the
barista to quickly increase the temperature of all the metal components in
resting steam wand, to maintain the consistency of the temperature. Use
this feature between long pauses in service (ten minutes or more of down
time between drink steaming), start of day, or if you have changed the
Vaporizer temperature. To exit the 30 second run cycle early, tap the steam
actuator up once.
