Making cappucino with a Krups espresso machine?
My parents bought me a nice Krups espresso machine for Christmas, along with a cappucino accessory (basically, a metal pitcher to hold milk). In the instruction booklet, it says a cappucino is "1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk, 1/3 froth." The instructions includes directs for "heating milk," but it doesn't exactly say if it'll make the milk froth.
Am I correct in assuming that, when I use the milk steaming attachment, it'll do the frothing part as well?
it will do the frothing part if you let it froth.
To heat the milk and froth it, your going to fill up 1/3rd of the frothing pitcher, put it under the steamer attachment and turn the steamer on. for the first minute or two, the steamer should be near the bottom of the pithcer, this will allow the milk to heat up
once the milk is warm, tilt the pitcher to an angle, and let the tip go near the top of the milk, this will allow the frother to encorporate air, and froth the milk.
good luck!
