Well its actually called "frothing" the milk to make it foamy and smooth. I think the height is perfect, you can't make it too low otherwise the milk will spill when taking it out, otherwise you would have to raise the machine. So its a catch 22!!! LOL

Yes sometimes videos that are 6 years or older can still help people, but maybe 20 years from now we will have "AI" showers that will just spray water from the wall. LOL Right even my humor can be timeless, maybe like a Seinfeld episode.

Yes the good ole days of the 1970's. It was all over the TV back then. No cable, just CBS, NBC, ABC and PBS!! LOL

@@paulc1562 Yes,, Thee BEST DAYS

Well you will have to experiment with the grind the amount, the amount of water, and the frothing of the cream or milk. I just use regular coffee like Folgers. So on the can its says 2 tablespoons of coffee for 6 ounces of water. I use a "French Press" the last couple years and I love it. I should make a video!! LOL

@@paulc1562 Yes, I think the machine is better with a ground for a regular coffee...

Yes good observation, but my drain spring and lock was broken so it would not close properly. That being said I was only taking showers, not baths. 😊

@@paulc1562 My drain is also broken so I put a towel over the drain.

That is nice that you like the last picture of the stirring of the coffee, with its beautiful head of foam. Wow $5 that is a steal of a deal. Hope you enjoy your coffee machine.

Thank you for compliment, of my filming technique of use of the zoom in shot.

Thank you for compliment of my video, and I am happy you also now have a coffee machine to make good coffee.

yes the milk steamer is optional, I also like iced coffee. For iced coffee I put water and coffee in a mason jar overnight in the refrigerator. Then the next day I pass it through my french press coffee maker.

yes I like to do things myself too, I like to learn on RUclips then try it in real life usually it works, sometimes not, once I ruined a stop watch trying to fix it.

Thanks for the smile and party icon, may the Lord Jesus be with you.

usually "lefty loose" has worked all these years for me, and "righty tighty", I am not sure what else to say. Good luck.

the 2 marking is 4 ounces, and the 4 marking is 8 ounces....I think it has more do to with 2 "cups" of espresso, which are usually only 2 ounces or so...

Hi pretty blazedbaby, yes any amount of water you put it, the water will all be gone, either to make coffee, or steam. It works by pressure.

Hi very pretty blazedbaby, come on you have to be better at google than that!!! I found it on my first try....Here is the link of the PDF manual. www.manualslib.com/manual/679704/Krups-963.html

Maybe I am not real sure myself, since I did not have to ever use it for an infant or an elderly person both would need water that is not too hot. But use this time to experiment. The purpose it so you can turn the water to be too hot, it will stop the handle before the hottest temps.

I stood and put my heel against a wall, no socks, then measured. Remember my left foot is 11.75 inches which by my chart at 2:09 of the video is a size 13.5, and I fit perfect in size 11.0 Vapor X4 fit2. If your foot length is 11.14 inches, that is size 11.5, and you might fit into a size 9.0 in Vapor X4, I can't tell you about the CCM Jetspeed S4, if that is what you mean by S4. But if you stuff your toes against the toe cap, a good fit would be your heal just touching the back heel. Like I show in my video at 10:44 where I try on Vapor X4 11.0 fit 2, with hockey socks and sitting on a tall stool.

I meant M4 ( = Supreme), my apologies. That skate is a tad smaller than X4. Based on trying M4, I'd go with 9.5. Ok, I'll take X4 (size 9) into consideration anyway. Thanks a lot!

Well no need to make a video, but clean it out with vinegar every once and a while, and keep it dry inside. Thats my advice for the today. It may even be rust proof material, I am not sure.

​@@paulc1562Yes it's cast aluminum so it won't rust.

or like JD Vance might say, "maybe your just projecting" ha, ha, ha

Your welcome, hip hip hooray, hip hip, hooray, hip,hip hooray, 3 cheers for the coffee maker.

Yes that is a good deal, now you get a nice cup of coffee too.

I had never used any descaling solution on the inside, just good ole soap and water and sometimes vinegar. Its hard to clean the frothing pipe, but I used a paper towel twisted into a small rope, and run it through a few times.

@@paulc1562 darn :( the one I got from an estate sale, the inside looks like it never was cleaned before. The inside was just clumps of hard white. Vinegar could only do so much :(

@@Badboyplants I just took a picture of my inside, with my cell phone on flash mode, and it looks like some kind of ceramic material, or pitty type of metal, but I too see some white pitted scaling. But I don't use mine too much anymore because I bought a French Press. Too bad I can't easily share the picture on youTube.

@@paulc1562 that’s okay, thanks anyways! The inside of mine looks like a cave or stalagmites 😂

@@Badboyplants OK, thanks for the description, it was not too hard to post a picture ( see below link ) I used my google drive. Take a look and let me know if its like your inside of your Krups coffee maker. Sounds like yours is a little worse. drive.google.com/file/d/1ddWldV_3VMK4dB-mXreAHuhl3uv2nVF5/view?usp=drive_link

Wow I think $4 is the record, I seen a guy get one for $7.50, but we got a steal for $4. I hope your enjoying your coffee.

Yes, and if you call Moen they will send you a free cartridge too.

Well thankfully you don't need frothed cream for a good up of coffee, just add cream and sugar and your good to go. Frothed cream is a luxury, but its kind of over rated too, and its a lot of cleanup.

Does Joe Pera drink espresso coffee?

@@paulc1562 he is not telling anybody

I am not sure what you mean, but if you provider a picture maybe others can figure it out. Or its been 6 months since your comment, so you probably figured it out.

Question? or Wusestion?

I am glad that you bought a used Krups espresso machine, and that this video will be your guide to making good coffee. Cheers

Thank you! How delightful and relaxing! I also bought mine at a thrift shop, for $6.99!! Now I can use it!

Update (I know, no one cares!): it works great! I used a lot of water and vinegar to get it cleaned out , especially the steam arm for the frother. I followed your instructions for brewing, right down to the proper tap on the top after screwing on the tank lid 😉. I’m missing the important part of the Kroger garlic tin but the little machine works well and is fun to use. Yummy coffee!

We coffee drinkers care! We are a community! Its good to document what you have done for posterity, it will help others with similar issues. Yes the Kroger Garlic tin is just the perfect size to hold my cup close to the frother. Like Homer Simpson once said, "Coffee Good".

Great to hear!

At one time I thought I had the MAX/MIN setting figured out, because it talks about it in the manual, but its kind of vague. That being said, I always set it on MAX for I figured maximum flavor!! LOL

Yes the Kroger Garlic Tin is the perfect size for my coffee cup to get a good froth without holding it up with my hand.

Maybe you should flush it out first with vinegar, somebody in the comment section said this. But without me being there live, I am not sure what is going on with the "burning metal" coffee smell. Actually I am not exactly sure what burning metal smells like, its it that electricity smell?

I am so happy that you love the video, and hopefully you are loving your coffee too. I try to make the video informative and like to add humor too. Cheers.

I was glad my video was able to help you figure it out.

your welcome, I am glad you watched it

Yes an old school espresso mini, I was glad you were able to pick one up at an estate sale, and then make some good coffee with it. You should also try a French Press, they make good coffee too.

if you watch starting at 1:48 I am talking about the white plastic temperature limit stop, you can put it in different configurations to limit the handle from going too far left, thus limiting the hot water, do some experimentation with it.
