I know green bean, clopen, forbidden brownie, Karen, but what else? What’s some barista slang that I should know?

"Caramel-tunnel" – pain in the wrists due to excessive squeezing of the caramel bottles
Seraphimod2 points3y ago
Push the little button at the top with one hand or finger while you squeeze. it gets the excess air out so you put less strain on your wrist while squeezing

we call sanitizer “sanny” and the dish washing machine in the back “hobart”. real rude female customers are “karen” and any rude male customer is a “jackass”. happy hour is called “frappy-hour”. our store calls the almond milk “fortified almond beverage” because that’s what the boxes of almond milk say. i can’t think of any more.

The slang also tends to very from store to store. At mine we have like three different names for the strawberry açaí refresher.

Bacon Gucci! (Bacon Gouda) Spinach feti (spinach feta wraps) Sani (sanitizer) Curtis (iced coffee) At my store I’ve also heard med beans (“meed beans”) meaning people who aren’t new, but aren’t veterans. Reliable, but haven’t been with the company forever. And then dark roast beans- veterans. Haha It’ll all vary from store to store as well.
