hot chocolate: preparation following the traditional artisan method, mix the cocoa with milk or water well in a pan before pouring it into the bowl. Follow the instructions of the manufacturer if using packaged instantaneous products. It is possible to mix these directly in the container. Activate the dispenser turning the switch to position 1. Turn the thermostat knob to 90°C to obtain the cooking temperature of the product. When the hot chocolate is ready lower the temperature to the value required for dispensing turning the thermostat knob.
