How to Use My DeLonghi Cappuccino Maker
- 1). Prepare espresso coffee. For two cappuccinos, fill the water carafe to the steam cloud, above the 2-cup mark. The additional water is used for steam to froth the milk. Unscrew the lid on the top of the machine, add the water and replace the lid. Turn the espresso/steam knob to the espresso position. Put the espresso filter in the filter holder and add coffee to the middle mark. Screw in the filter holder, place the carafe under it and switch the machine to the "On" position.
- 2). Turn the espresso/steam knob to the closed position when the carafe has filled up to the "2" mark with coffee.
- 3). Pour seven ounces of milk into a suitable container. Remember that the milk will double or triple in size once it's been steamed.
- 4). Submerge the cappuccino nozzle about two inches into the milk and turn the espresso/steam knob to the steam setting. The milk takes on a creamy appearance as it increases in volume. When the steam has exhausted itself, turn the machine off.
- 5). Pour the coffee into two cappuccino cups or similar, wide-brimmed coffee cups. Slowly empty the contents of the steamed milk container into the cups using a spoon. Add cocoa powder, cinnamon and sugar to taste.
