INTRODUCTION
The KRUPS "Espresso
Maxlmo Programatlc" Is a
semi-commercial espreso/
cappuccino machine that
features a fully automatic

so makers now available for

GENUINE ESPRESSO
Espresso Is a far richer and
stronger brew than regular
coffee. It should be deep,
dark and delicious. Most
people find they enjoy it in
smail quantities because of
Its richness and, for that
reason, espresso Is usually
served in small 2 - 2.5oz.

Problem:
Not Enough Froth When
Frothing Milk
Cause:
.Steam nozzle Isclogged.
.Milk is not fresh.
.Thepitcher that you are
using is not suitable. (It
is recommended that
you use a stainless steel
frothing pitcher). Cold
conducts better to metal
than to glass or plastic.
.The type of milk is not
suitable. We recommend
using 2% or skim milk.
Whole milk is okay, but
due to the fat molecules,
it will not have as dense
a froth, as if you were to
use 2% or skim milk.
