<p>A milk container (3) connectable with the steam and/or water delivery tube (2) of a coffee machine (1) comprises a collector body (5) having a connecting route (6) to said steam and/or water delivery tube (2), a first opening (7) for the ingress of milk, connected to a pipe (8) for the intake of the milk present in the container (3), a second opening (10) for the ingress of air, connected to piping (13) for the intake of air, and a connecting route (11) to a delivery nozzle (12), a manual control member (15) also being provided for means (16) of regulating the intake of air, capable of bringing about a substantially inverse correlation between the flow of air and the flow of milk sucked into said flow of steam and/or water by virtue of a depression along the flow of steam and/or water, the control member (15) having at least one first position for commanding production of hot and/or frothed milk in which the regulating means (16) establish a positive value both for the flow of air and for the flow of milk sucked into the flow of steam and/or water, the control member (15) having at least one second position for commanding the execution of a cycle for washing the collector body (5) and/or the nozzle (12) with the flow of steam and/or water, in which the regulating means (16) establish a maximum value for the flow of air which corresponds to a null value for the flow of milk.</p> |
