OPERATING YOUR SAGE®MILK CAFÉ™
FROTHING HOT MILK

and plug the power cord into a 220–240V
power outlet.The START | STOP button
surround will illuminate.
2. Select the ‘Capp’ or ‘Latté’ frothing disc.
Choose the ‘Capp’ disc for thick and
creamy froth or the ‘Latté’ disc for smooth
and silky milk.
3. Insert the frothing disc onto the shaft at
the base of the milk jug. Ensure the disc
is inserted the correct way with the
wider part of the disc at the bottom
of the jug. The disc should ‘click’ securely
onto the shaft.
NOTE
If the disc is not inserted correctly it may
dislodge during operation, a grinding noise
may be heard, or milk will not swirl.
WARNING
Frothing disc is a choking
hazard. Children must always
be supervised and never left
unattended with the appliance.
4. Pour the required amount of cold, fresh (or
freshlyopened)milkintothemilkjugthen
cover with the jug lid.
NOTE
Never operate without the minimum level
of liquid in the milk jug. The milk frother
willautomaticallyturnoifthemilkjugis
empty. If this occurs, you will need to wait
for the milk frother to cool down before re-
use, refer to page 8.

once,rmly.Frothing has started once the
milk frother beeps once and the button
surround slowly ashes.
NOTE
Do not remove the milk jug from the power

WARNING
Appliance surfaces will be hot
during and after operation.
8. Clean the milk jug and frothing disc
immediately after use. Refer to Care
& Cleaning.
NOTE
When frothing multiple batches, to prevent
the Boil Dry Protection from activating, we
recommend allowing the milk jug to cool
forapproximately5minutes,orllingthe
milk jug with water for faster cooling.
USING THE ‘COLD STIR’ SETTING
The ‘Cold Stir’ setting allows you to stir already
cold or hot milk without additional heat.
Use it to froth milk for cold beverages such as
an iced cappuccino; to blend in syrups and
avoringsforanicedchocolateormocha;
or to stir in dissolvable instant drinking powders
into milk or water.
NOTE
The milk frother has been designed
specicallyforthepurposeoffoamingmilk
and other dairy milk alternatives and is
not intended to whip, thicken or heat other
food substances eg. oil, eggs, butter, heavy
whipping cream, soups, gravies etc.
The milk frother is not designed to mix a
large quantity of dry ingredients or melt large
food pieces eg. cubed chocolate, ground
nuts, whole spices, fresh herbs or ice cubes.
ADDING INGREDIENTS
Always allow the milk frother to start for
a few seconds before using the measuring
cap to gradually add ingredients.
Always add ingredients slowly and in small
quantities.
NOTE
Frothingresultsdierdependingonthe
ingredients used. For example, adding
dense ingredients like thick syrups, heavy
powdersandlargeakescansignicantly
reduce the amount of foam.
SAFETY FEATURES
Boil Dry, Overheating Protection
The milk frother will automatically cease to
operate if the milk jug overheats.This can
be caused if the milk jug is empty, if liquid is
below the MIN measurement marking, or after
consecutive uses. If this occurs, 3 alerts will
sound. Unplug the power cord from the power
outlet, wait approximately 5 minutes for the milk
frothertocooldownorllthemilkjugwithwater
for faster cooling.
Thermal Fuse & Current Protection
This feature protects the milk frother in case
of major fault. If this occurs, the milk frother
willautomaticallyturnoandwillnotreactivate.
Immediately cease use, remove the power
plug from the power outlet and visit

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE WHAT TO DO
Milk is not
foaming?
• Milk is warm or too
hot to foam.
• Usecold,fresh(orfreshlyopened)milk.
• Do not re-foam already heated milk.
• Try reducing the quantity of milk in the milk jug.
• Tryadierentmilk.Somemilksandmilkbrands
produce more froth than others. For example, we
have found that some soy milks produce froth while
othersdonot.Experimentwithdierentmilkoptions
and frothing discs to achieve the desired result.
• Adding dense ingredients like thick syrups, heavy
powdersandlargeakescansignicantlyreduce
the amount of foam.This is normal.
Milk is not
heating?
• Ensure the milk jug is correctly positioned onto the
power base.
• Ensure that the milk frother has been properly
activated. Frothing has started once the milk frother
beepsonceandthebuttonsurroundslowlyashes.
If the milk frother does not do this, re-push the
START/STOPpush-dialonce,rmly.
• Increase the temperature by turning the
START / STOP push-dial to the right.
Frothing
disc is not
moving or is
dislodged?
• Frothing disc is not
inserted correctly.
• Frothing disc
has dislodged
during operation.
• Ingredients have
been added too

be overheated.
1. Unplug the cord from the power outlet.
2. Remove liquid from milk jug. Rinse the milk jug and
frothing disc with cold water then dry thoroughly.
3. Ensure the milk frother has not been operated
for 5 minutes. This allows the internal components
to cool.
4. Ensure the frothing disc is securely and correctly
attached. Refer to steps 2 & 3, page 7. Once
attached,turnthefrothingdiscwithyourngers,

dislodged during
operation.
