TIPS ON HOW TO OBTAIN PERFECT MILK FROTH

1. You will get the best results with milk from the refrigerator.
2. You can use any type of milk for froth, but you will get the best results with low fat milk (1.5%). But try out other types of milk, as the consistency of the froth varies with each type.
3. We recommend soy milk for people with allergies.

4. Factors such as freshness or level of pasteurisation may have an effect on the frothing process.

5. The appliance heats milk to between 62 and 68 °C, which is the ideal temperature for milk froth for your coffee.

6. The milk froth can also be used to prepare especially creamy salad dressings.
7. Tip: To prevent hot milk sticking to the jug, you can spread a thin layer of butter inside the jug beforehand.

BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE FOR THE FIRST TIME

5. Wipe the jug, lid, agitator with accessory with a damp cloth and some washing-up liquid. Do not use any abrasive products, steel wool, metal objects, hot cleaning products or disinfectants, since they may damage the appliance. This applies especially to the non-stick coating inside the jug.

6. Clean the inside of the jug with a soft cloth and warm water with some mild washing-up liquid. Do not scrape stubborn residue with hard objects, otherwise you will damage the coating. If necessary, allow water to soak in to remove residue. Then rinse the jug thoroughly with warm water.

7. The lid has a sealing ring inside. This also has to be cleaned from time to time. To do this, remove the ring from the lid and clean it in warm water with washing-up liquid. Allow the ring to dry completely before attaching it to the lid again. Remember that the grooves on the sealing ring must face outward.
8. The appliance must be completely dry before you use it again.

RECIPES

With milk froth you can prepare hot and cold coffee specialties.

Capuccino – the classic Italian

It consists of 1/3 espresso, 1/3 hot milk and 1/3 milk froth. If you wish you may decorate it with chocolate powder.

Caffe Latte

This coffee is known in France as Café au lait, a milk coffee. It is also made of espresso. Add the desired quantity of heated milk and, if you wish, crown it with a bit of froth milk.

Latte Macchiato

A well prepared Latte Macchiato consists of various layers. Start with filling the milk into a high glass and then add alternately espresso, hot milk and milk froth. Allow the milk froth layer to settle before you add the espresso. Thus the layers will not intermingle. Mind that the espresso must be hot. If you wish to give flavour to it using for example syrup or liqueur, add these ingredients only to the hot milk and not to the espresso, as it would make the espresso sink too fast.

Mochaccino

Put 1 to 2 tsp. of chocolate syrup in a glass and add a bit of slightly cooled down milk froth. Fill it up carefully with espresso. To finish, put a crown of milk froth or whipped cream on top and decorate with shaved chocolate or chocolate powder.

Iced coffee

Pour cold, strong coffee into a high glass. Now add 1 to 2 balls of vanilla icecream and fill the glass up with cold milk froth. If you wish, you can decorate it with shaved chocolate.

But not only coffee specialties can be prepared with milk froth. Did you know, for example, that you can use milk froth instead of cream for delicious desserts? This will give you wonderful, easily digestible and creamy creations. Try to use hot milk froth on fresh strawberries or your cereals, for example.

And also try a crown of milk froth on cream soup or serve the cream soup as mushroom or potato cappuccino.

You will find a lot more recipes in cookery books and on the Internet.
