When people are getting this coffee maker, they always wonder if they can use it to make hot chocolate. The answer to your question is that it is possible to make hot chocolate using this coffee maker.
The best thing here is that you have two options and these are;
1. When your coffee maker has a milk frother, steam a cup of milk to about halfway and add a sachet or two of your favorite chocolate flavor.
Stir the mixture and some add boiling water to dilute the mixture. This method gets you the creamiest hot chocolate that comes in very handy during winter or when it is raining.
2.The second option is to mixing the normal hot chocolate powder and adding hot water from the water spout. This is especially good for people staying away from dairy products for some time or lactose-intolerant people.
