Making Cappuccino With The Cuisinart EM-100

Just how I like it. Used a cheap Cuisinart EM-100 espresso machine. It does a good job for its price.

I have the same machine but I don't get the same texture when frosting the milk. what kind of milk are you using ? I usually use 2%

@hana011 Whole milk is what you need to use.

Another question: Does your bottom tray fill up with water when using this machine? Mine drains a lot out.

[SchneiderStudios]

@danakscully64 Yes some bit.

I was so excited when I saw the video posted, but it cut off what I was trying to see. When you brew espresso, do you have to turn the nob to off to stop it or does the machine automatically brew a shot or two? With the machine I currently have, I have to manually stop it or water will continue coming out. Thanks!

@danakscully64 No this isn't an automatic. You'll need to turn it off to stop brewing yes.

@mmgandara i have the same question. When are you supposed to stop? Also what do you do with the rest? Is it enough for 2? I mean I just want one!

This machine is highly under rated. I chopped off the bottom off of my portafilter holder and off of my pressurized filters that came with this machine... I can pull a "Tiger stripes" shot consecutively.

[mmgandara]

I have the same machine and have been searching all over to try and figure out when to manually stop the water during the brewing process......please help!!!

[danakscully64]

I got this machine for Christmas and already love it. Does your machine make a clicking/pumping noise when steaming?
