How do I make a cappuccino with my Gaggia Classic Evo?

[Myra]

Creating a perfect cappuccino with your Gaggia Classic Evo is easy. Here's a step-by-step guide: First, brew your espresso directly into a large cappuccino cup, following the machine's instructions for ground coffee. Next, froth your milk: Press the steam button and wait for the steam temperature indicator light to illuminate. Briefly open the steam/hot water valve to release any condensation, then close it. Place a jug with cold milk under the steam wand. Position the steam nozzle just below the milk's surface, ensuring it's not too deep or shallow. Open the steam valve to introduce steam. Froth the milk for up to 60 seconds, keeping the nozzle within the milk, not just the froth. Once frothed, submerge the nozzle deeper to heat the milk thoroughly. Close the steam valve and remove the jug. Gently tap the jug on a flat surface and let it sit for about 30 seconds to compact the froth. Finally, assemble your cappuccino by pouring the frothed milk over the espresso in your cup. Add a sprinkle of cinnamon, cocoa, or any toppings you like for an extra touch. Remember to froth only the milk you need and avoid reusing leftover hot milk for the best results. Enjoy your delicious, homemade cappuccino!
