- Aktiver Steam: Press the steam button to heat up the boiler for steam production. Wait until the steam indicator light illuminates.
- Rens damprør: Position an empty cup under the steam wand and briefly open the steam knob to release any condensed water. Close the knob.
- Skummælk: Immerse the tip of the steam wand just below the surface of the milk. Open the steam knob. Move the pitcher up and down slightly to incorporate air and create foam. Once the milk reaches the desired temperature and consistency, close the steam knob.
