Pour in your desired amount of cold milk into a stainless steel frothing pitcher (or ceramic mug), but allow enough room for expansion of the foam (typically 1/3 or 1/2 of the top). Do not use the glass carafe! *Frothing texture is highly dependent upon the milk type used. 2% is recommended; whole milk creates finer bubbles while skim milk creates larger bubbles. 5. Place your stainless steel frothing pitcher so that the frothing wand is submerged into the milk. About 1/2 -1" into the milk. 6. Turn the knob to "Steam". This will take a few seconds to heat up before bubbling. Move the pitcher in a circular motion until desired amount of froth is reached. *It takes about 2 minutes to froth 4 oz. of milk to 165 F. 7. Before removing the frothing pitcher from underneath the frothing wand, turn the knob to the "Off" position and remove the stainless steel frothing pitcher or mug.
