Cold foam americano????? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by BassRiffinFool
Sooooooo we had a couple customers ask for a hot americano with cold foam. We told them we couldn’t do that because the hot water/espresso would curdle the milk. Of course they fought back and said someone at our story has already done it for them. We also saw it online in a few places. Anyone else care to eat in on this??

I had someone ask for a blonde coffee with pumpkin cold foam. Lol no. We said no. She was cool. I gave her a blonde with sweet cream and 1 pump pumpkin syrup.

Instead of saying no I would just warn them that it's for cold drinks and it's going to melt and their coffee won't be full when they go to drink it. People order dumb stuff all the time but we barely ever will say no unless they try to get something steamed too hot or something like that.

I've also made a "hot version" of the pumpkin cream by making a half full vanilla americano and filling the rest with steamed sweet cream that has the pumpkin sauce steamed in.

Ya the steamed sweet cream is fine but they wanted a hot americano with cold foam. That would curdle it and make them sick.

I mean, it'll curdle just as much as putting heavy cream or whipped cream in a piping hot americano. Dont think it would make them sick, it's just cream that's whipped in a blender
