Learn how to dispense frothed milk based coffee beverages with the Gaggia Magenta Prestige, as well as how carry out the quick cleaning procedure of the milk circuit after each use.
Before selecting a milk, frothed milk or coffee-based beverage, make sure that the milk carafe is installed and the milk dispensing spout is open. If the milk carafe is not correctly installed, the milk dispensing spout may spray steam or hot milk.
Note: use only cold milk (at a temperature of 5°C approx.) and with at least a 3% protein content so as to obtain a perfect milk foam. You can use either whole milk or semi-skimmed milk. Alternatively, you can use skimmed, soy or lactose-free milk.

2. Place a cup under the open milk dispensing spout.
3. Press the Home button and choose the desired beverage from the menu.
