Full details

FAQs
What is the capacity of the Roma Cafetière?
The Roma Cafetière has a capacity of 6 cups, which is equivalent to 850ml.
Is the entire cafetière dishwasher safe?
No, only the borosilicate glass beaker is dishwasher safe. The stainless steel frame, lid, and plunger mechanism should be hand washed only.
What type of batteries does the milk frother use?
The handheld milk frother requires two AA batteries, which are not included with the set.
How do I clean the milk frother?
Rinse the whisk attachment immediately after use with warm water. Wipe the handle and motor unit with a damp cloth. Do not submerge the motor unit in water.
Does the set come with a replacement filter?
Yes, the set includes a replacement filter for the cafetière.
What is the warranty period for the cafetière and frother?
The cafetière comes with a 10-year guarantee, and the milk frother has a 12-month guarantee.
Can I use the frother for cold foam?
While primarily designed for warm milk, the frother can be used with cold milk to create a lighter foam, though the results may vary compared to warm milk.
Troubleshooting
Cafetière is difficult to plunge
Ensure the coffee grounds are not too fine, as this can clog the filter. Check that the plunger is correctly aligned and not obstructed. If using freshly ground coffee, a slightly coarser grind is recommended.
Milk frother not working
Check that the batteries are correctly inserted and have sufficient charge. Ensure the battery compartment is clean and free of corrosion.
Coffee tastes weak or watery
Use more coffee grounds or a finer grind. Ensure the water is hot enough (just off the boil) and that the coffee steeps for the recommended time (typically 4 minutes).
Milk foam is not forming well
Ensure the milk is adequately warmed (not boiled). Different types of milk may produce varying foam textures; whole milk or barista-edition non-dairy milks often yield the best results.
Loose parts on the cafetière
Periodically check that all components of the stainless steel frame are securely fitted. Ensure the glass beaker is properly seated within the frame.
