CLEANUP AFTER MAKING A CAPPUCCINO
1. After frothing milk, the steam pipe should be cleaned with a piece of damp cloth in time to
prevent the remaining milk from sticking to the steam pipe.
2. After milk foaming finished, turn on the steam knob to make the coffee machine release
steam for a few seconds, then turn off the steam knob, clean the steam outlet in case the steam
outlet is blocked for the remaining milk.
Hand pump water cooling method for coffee machine:
When the coffee machine is in the alarm state, you need to turn off the “Coffee” button and
press the “on/off” button to cancel the alarm state; after the alarm state is cancelled, press both
buttons at the same time, and then the coffee maker will work again. When the thermometer
goes back between 80 - 120 °C, it indicates that everything is ready to make coffee again.
Tip: To make more than one cappuccino, make all the coffees first and then make the frothed
milk for all the cappuccinos at the end.
TIPS FOR MAKING COFFEE AND CHOOSING BEANS
1. What kind of powder is suitable for this coffee machine?
A.- We can judge it by the shape of the coffee residue: 1. If the coffee residue is pulpy, it
indicates that the coffee powder is too fine; 2. If the coffee residue is in the form of loose sand,
it indicates that the coffee powder is too coarse; 3. If the coffee residue is pasty, it indicates that
the coffee powder is suitable.
2. Is there any standard for use of coffee powder?
A.- To make a single cup of coffee, place a level measure (approximately 7-8 g) of ground
coffee in the filter.
To make a double cup of coffee only, place a level measure (approximately 14-15g) of ground
coffee in the filter.
3. How much force is needed to press the coffee with the tamping spoon?
A.- The force required is approximately 1.5 kg to press and remove the coffee powder using
only the hand.
What is the function of the area for heating the cup?
A.- By heating the coffee cup in this area, you can get a better coffee taste because the
temperature difference of the coffee decreases when the coffee is poured into the coffee cup.
4. What is the function of the stainless-steel sleeves in the steam tube?
A.- It can make the steam have a better angle and the milk foam becomes richer and finer.
5. Why couldn’t milk be turned into milk foam?
R.-
i. Be sure to choose milk kept in cold storage.
ii. Milk cannot be turned into milk foam after its temperature rises.
iii. Making milk foam is a kind of skill that must be practiced.
8. What should be done if the milk foam has relatively large bubbles?
A.- You can take the jar and hit it hard on the table a few times and rotate it in a certain
direction clockwise for several times. By doing so, you can remove the large bubbles and make
the organization of the milk smoother and denser, which will give it a thicker flavor.
9. What kind of milk is suitable for frothing milk?
A.- Low-fat milk is easy to foam, but the bubble and foam are a bit bigger and looser, and it
doesn’t have a thick flavor either. Whole milk is not easy to foam, but once you are successful
there will be an excellent result.
