Leave the milk container attached and put a cup under the milk spout. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Do I have to clean the Bertazzoni milk tubes after every drink? The machine asks after each milk drink, and skipping it lets milk dry in the narrow tubes. That is the usual reason froth gets thin. ### Why does my Bertazzoni say turn the knob to milk position? The container went on with the dial still on CLEAN. Turn it to a froth setting and the drink will start. ### Why is there little froth from my Bertazzoni? Warm milk, a dirty lid or dial, or a dirty steam connection nozzle all reduce froth. Cold low-fat milk and a clean lid fix most cases. --- **[Read on the site: Bertazzoni Turn milk froth knob to CLEAN: flush the milk container tubes](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/error-codes/bertazzoni-turn-milk-froth-knob-to-clean/)** **[Book a visit with CoffeeMachineRepair.center](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/schedule/)**
