2. Place the lid with the plunger assembly onto the pitcher, ensuring it is securely seated.
3. Hold the handle firmly and rapidly pump the plunger up and down for approximately 20-30 seconds, or until the milk has doubled in volume and reached your desired consistency.
4. Carefully remove the lid and plunger. Your cold milk foam is ready to serve.

5.2. For Warm Milk Foam

1. Pour cold milk into the stainless steel pitcher, filling to approximately one-third of its total capacity (e.g., 250-300 ml).
2. Place the pitcher directly onto a suitable stovetop (electric, ceramic, gas, or induction cooktop).
3. Heat the milk to your desired temperature. Do not allow the milk to boil. Remove from heat immediately once hot.
4. Carefully place the lid with the plunger assembly onto the hot pitcher.
5. Hold the handle firmly and rapidly pump the plunger up and down for approximately 20-30 seconds, or until the milk has doubled in volume and reached your desired consistency.

6. Limpieza y mantenimiento

Una limpieza adecuada garantiza la longevidad y la higiene de su espumador de leche.

• Después de cada uso: Rinse all components immediately with warm water to prevent milk residue from drying.
• Apto para lavavajillas: The Westmark Brasilia Plus Milk Frother is dishwasher safe. Place all components on the top rack of your dishwasher.
• Lavarse las manos: If washing by hand, use warm soapy water and a soft sponge or brush. Ensure all milk residue is removed from the frothing disc and pitcher. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before storing.
• No utilice limpiadores abrasivos ni estropajos, ya que pueden rayar la superficie de acero inoxidable.

7. Solución de problemas

• La leche no hace espuma o la espuma es fina:
  • Ensure you are using fresh, cold milk. Whole milk generally produces the best foam.
  • Check that the milk level is appropriate (approximately one-third of the pitcher's capacity).
  • Pump the plunger more vigorously or for a longer duration.
• Milk overflowing during frothing:
  • Reduce the amount of milk in the pitcher.
  • Asegúrese de que la tapa esté colocada correctamente.
• Frother not heating on induction cooktop:
  • While the product is designed for induction, some induction cooktops have minimum base diameter requirements. Ensure your cooktop is compatible with the frother's base. Consult your cooktop's manual for specific requirements.
