Push the milk container in as far as it will go. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Why is milk not coming out of my JennAir even though the container is in? The intake tube may not be inserted in the rubber washer in the lid. Refit it and close the lid. ### How do I get thicker froth on a JennAir coffee system? Move the pointer on the milk container lid toward Cappuccino; toward Caffelatte gives lighter froth. ### Which milk does JennAir recommend for frothing? Cold skim or 2% milk. If results are poor, JennAir suggests trying another brand. --- **[Read on the site: JennAir INSERT MILK CONTAINER!: the milk container is not in place](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/error-codes/jennair-insert-milk-container/)** **[Book a visit with CoffeeMachineRepair.center](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/schedule/)**
