How does a cappuccino maker work?
So I bought an Oster cappuccino espresso maker model 3215 I got home and wanted to make one for myself and i realized that the manual is not in the box. Can anybody advise of how this kind of machine work like? so i can get a nice cappuccino??
Answers:
Cant find that machine on the net. But most pump machines will have a espresso or brew switch and then a steamer setting. Most steam machines will have one switch and a knob to control the steam. (pump machine is recomended)
Take your espresso grounds and pack them in the coffee holder (about 30 lb of pressure to pack the grounds with the tamper) then turn the machine to brew draw your espresso shot ( i prefer the double shot about 30 seconds is recommended). Pour about 6 oz of milk in a measuring cup ( i use glass, stainless steel is recommended) switch the machine to steam and froth the milk till its about 180 degrees and nice and foamy. Add to coffee, add any sugar or other flavorings you want and drink
hopefully your machine is a pump machine. If your making more than one drink pull the drinks before doing the steam as the water will be too hot for a good espresso.
Try to use fresh roasted espresso beans for the best flavor.
hope this helped
