Didiesse Aura CAPPUCCINATORE Black POD ONLY Espresso Machine

Overview:

The Didiesse Aura with Cappuccinatore is a superb little pod only espresso machine that allows simple use in a small office (5-10 people) environment. An Easy Serving Espresso pod is inserted into the pod holder in the front of the machine and slide the lower front lever from left to right to create the seal. Press the coffee switch on to start the extraction and depress it again to stop the extraction. Then push the lever back to the left and remove the pod. That's it! Place the hose from the cappuccinatore into a cup of cold milk and press the steam button to start frothing your milk into the cup with espresso, and once you have reached the desired amount of frothed milk, just depress the steam switch again to stop it. Please note that the cappuccinatore is very good for making frothing easy, but it does not work for steaming milk only for lattes for for really HOT frothed milk. In these latter two cases, the AURA VAPOR with steam wand should be purchased.
