I know tons of people on here have made their own editions of a “barista cheat sheet” over the years, but my manager recently told me she wants to make me a trainer, so I made my own! I’m proud of it :)(i.redd.it)

For iced drinks venti is 26oz and trenta is 30oz!
275bruhista [OP]25 points2y ago
I appreciate you. Haha it’s midnight here and I’m tired. 💚

eat-reddit-tv6 points2y ago
It’s different in Canada 24oz and 32oz
misguidedghostman5 points2y ago
Came here to say the same thing haha
brihea3 points2y ago
Venti/Trenta iced cup size is regional. I've worked in AZ/WI and can confirm it was 24/31 in one state and 26/30 in the other. Messed with my brain like no other.
bwaydood782738 points2y ago
nice job! just a heads up that hot venti flat white only get 3 shots, but the iced ones get 4 😊
275bruhista [OP]6 points2y ago
Thank youuuuu 💚💚💚
swollemolle24 points2y ago
OP, can you PLEASE update your cheat sheet with all the changes in the comments? I really would like to print this out for my store's new baristas and anyone else who may be interested.
275bruhista [OP]17 points2y ago
Yes! I’ll do that in the next few days for sure. Probably tomorrow!
SluttyHufflepuff6 points2y ago
Yeah I need this so badly. I can’t even tell you lol.
Also as a fellow witch, I am loving your name!!
275bruhista [OP]2 points2y ago
Haha thank you so much! I actually did not intend to make my name witchy though haha. 275 are the first three numbers to my partner numbers and I just thought bruhista was a funny rendition of barista 😂💚
SluttyHufflepuff3 points2y ago
Omg I thought it was a combo of bruja y barista!! I may make it mine then... I need a different handle for Starbucks stuff to help keep my life a little more separate anyways lol.
Meduka__22 points2y ago
One thing to add would be cold brew syrup pumps!!! 1-2-3-4!!! No one at my store knew this, not even my manager. I think the only exception is the salted caramel cream cold foam cold brew.
aimsthename888 points2y ago
Salted caramel follows the same 1/2/3/4 standard.
Meduka__6 points2y ago
Unless POS is talking about CB pumps, which I highly doubt. Check it next time, mine usually says 4 pumps of caramel for a grande and everything else is normal.
aimsthename889 points2y ago
We’ve really been struggling to understand the cold brew standards at my store. According to the most recent recipe cards (on the iPad at work), ALL cold brew variations get 1/2/3/4 hot bar pumps. The weird thing is that the salted caramel is the only one that lists the pump as cold bar whereas the others all list it as hot bar. Either way, 2 hot bar is the same as 4 cold bar so it still follows the same rule.
casey6931 points2y ago
This could be because caramel is typically the only cold brew flavor that is both on hot bar and cold bev. So POS defaults to the CBS pumps, knowing we have that size pump for the flavor? Makes sense they would just confuse everyone by sneaking that in there if you look at POS for recipes, though.

YOOOOO IVE BEEN MAKING FLAT WHITES WRONG AND JIPPING PEOPLE OUT OF THERE RISTRETTO SHOTS AND GIVING THEM ONE LESS 💀💀
275bruhista [OP]9 points2y ago
Haha oh nooo!! It’s okay I’m constantly learning new things too 😂💚
coneheadbrown4 points2y ago
i don’t think you can pull a triple ristretto, the machine at my store can only do doubles anyway.
[deleted]7 points2y ago
[deleted]
freyathepoet2 points2y ago
The mastrena 2s can pull triple ristretto shots. If your store has the 1s then the pull to the side trick works for the third
MrDragon76568 points2y ago
Wow, so few shots in your country.
Here in the UK we have 1 - 2 - 2 - 3, Short, Tall, Grande, Venti!
Couldn't be on without strong coffee in the morning like :D
gabbysafari5 points2y ago
I love the way this cheat sheet is laid out! It’s so pleasant for the eyes and easy to understand. I feel like some of the cheat sheets I see here can seem crowded or confusing but this is awesome! Thank you!!!
275bruhista [OP]1 points2y ago
Thank you!! I was thinking the same thing, I’ve seen lots of other cheat sheets that were so crowded and confusing to look at so I wanted to keep the font large and spacing nice and even. I appreciate that :)
ItsAox5 points2y ago
my dear where is london fog
275bruhista [OP]1 points2y ago
Ah yeah we like NEVER get orders for those haha. I can’t add everything to this page cause I definitely don’t have enough room so I just wanted to include the basics. I’ll for sure train my baristas to make them but just can’t include it in this list.
violetskies75 points2y ago
pretty sure cappuccinos get the normal amount of syrup pumps.. unless it’s different here in canada ?
interyx7 points2y ago
As far as the US standard I can confirm that cappuccinos get one less pump of syrup.
The rationale I heard is that since there's more foam in the drink there doesn't need to be as much sweetener.
[deleted]2 points2y ago
Yeah I'd love confirmation on this as well.
275bruhista [OP]1 points2y ago
I just checked on the POS yesterday and yeah it’s definitely one less for cappuccinos! It surprised me too cause I had no clue.
violetskies72 points2y ago
i’m totally gonna check the pos at my store next time i’m in! i know when you add syrup to a cappuccino on the starbucks app it has 4 pumps as standard.
KingDuck72 points2y ago
Ok thank goodness people usually order none or a specific amount for me bc me too 😵💀
accebs5 points2y ago
Looks good! Being a trainer is super fun, I miss it.
275bruhista [OP]2 points2y ago
Thank you!! I’m pretty excited :)
TEMPEST-Attack4 points2y ago
Not gonna lie, with everyone giving you some corrections, will you place an updated variation? I'd love to have one on hand when I have to help green beans (as is my current state)
275bruhista [OP]4 points2y ago
Yup! Planning on making an updated version in the next few days.
Conflict_Thick4 points2y ago
didnt they change caramel macchiatos?
275bruhista [OP]6 points2y ago
I knew they changed the pumps for blonde beverages and hot chocolates but wasn’t sure if caramel macchiatos were included in that too? I didn’t think they were but I could be wrong. Gotta go back to the update for that one.
Vosstonmass16 points2y ago
As far as I know the caramel macchiato is still 1 less pump. Did they Sm change something about the hot chocolate? I know that white got chocolate is minus the vanilla but other than that I don’t know what is different.
275bruhista [OP]6 points2y ago
Yeah so the hot chocolate no longer has vanilla in it at all and the blonde drinks now get normal amounts of pumps too
420catloveredm1 points2y ago
Since when????
Von_Leipzig6 points2y ago
Yeah, blonde espresso drinks now get the same amount of pumps as regular espresso drinks. And they got rid of the vanilla syrup for hot chocolates.
Edit: There's about two more things they changed, bit I can't remember right now. Something about not needing to do extra hot for some drinks now
eat-reddit-tv2 points2y ago
They no longer limit the temp on juice to 140. It’s now the standard temp.
You don’t pour to the short line for grande chai lattes. Now you pour to tall line for T/G/V.
dalenakitty5 points2y ago
No it is just blonde drinks that they changed.
Edit: and removing the vanilla from hot chocolate. No changes to macchiatos though.
iWantToBeARealBoy2 points2y ago
Caramel macchiatos stayed the same but I think the cappuccinos changed
BatWeary3 points2y ago
Honestly I just wanna say this: I’m a newer partner, I’ve only been working at SBux for a month, and I WISH I had this cheat sheet. They just spewed numbers and cup sizes at me and expected me to know all of it instantly. Anyways I’m saving this to study because I’m still learning and need help, also tired of asking “how many shots does x get?” Or “does this get whip?” Haha
(For the record I had no idea flat whites were made with whole milk! 😳 Every flat white I’ve made has clearly been made with the wrong milk, oops!)
275bruhista [OP]1 points2y ago
Aw this is so great to hear. I’m glad I could be of help :) it’s okay if you mess a few things up it really isn’t a huge deal 💚
mikejwb3 points2y ago
In the Midwest venti iced is 26oz and Trenta is 30oz. I don’t know if that was an error or just region differences.
Kaiser_Mech3 points2y ago
Thats funny about the flat whites, we just do them in 1 standard short size with 2 shots and whole milk. We've got a drink that uses ristretto shots called a cortado but that too comes in its own special size.
LegendOfJakelope2 points2y ago
About to start at Starbucks in a week or so- gonna make this my lockscreen until I get it right. 😂 Thanks!
CobaltLemon2 points2y ago
Man, I was forget the extra pump in iced lattes sometimes, cause most of what we do iced are caramel macchiatos and they get 5 or iced coffees.
sarahcook88002 points2y ago
this came at a wonderful moment where our current trainers haven’t been doing great and my friends is getting a job at my store so i am gonna give this to him
275bruhista [OP]1 points2y ago
Yay that’s awesome!
International-Cup1452 points2y ago
Can you make one for Frappuccino’s? Like which ones get what on the whipped cream? There are so many variations, idk which one gets the crumbles, which one gets the syrup, which ones get both, which ones get whip on top and the bottom. Thanks!!
275bruhista [OP]1 points2y ago
Hmmm this would be a really great idea but I wouldn’t have much room to put it! I could try to make a second one but I’m a student right now and it’s hard to find lots of time!
International-Cup1452 points2y ago
You could also just put all the frap recipes on the second once if you ever find the time. And if you do lmk i desperately need it lol
International-Cup1452 points2y ago
A second one would be great! And no worries I’m a student too I feel your pain. Take your time!!
rhondasmelody2 points2y ago
Dont blond drinks also get one less pump of syrups? Maybe im wrong but thats what I remember from training
I_prefer_naps4 points2y ago
They changed it a couple updates ago. They now get the same as signature espresso.
kitkat_772 points2y ago
That's how I was trained yesterday!
cristianap362 points2y ago
Wait so you telling me that hot drinks for grande syrup is 4 not 3? My manager said it was three for a grande
275bruhista [OP]2 points2y ago
Nope! That would be the Frappuccino pumps not espresso pumps.
cristianap362 points2y ago
So for espresso hot drinks syrup pumps is venti 5 grande 4, tall 3 etc.?
275bruhista [OP]2 points2y ago
Yes that would be correct :)
cristianap363 points2y ago
Then my manager is stupid then
AdamAce32 points2y ago
Wait, a venti flat white gets 4. Oops
275bruhista [OP]3 points2y ago
No no no I was wrong on this one!!! 3 for a venti flat white
AdamAce32 points2y ago
Oh okay I was like shittt I trained my barista wrong. I just got my first trainee and we went over shots today
275bruhista [OP]2 points2y ago
Omg sorry to scare you haha. I’m still trying to fix all the things I mixed up 😂 good thing I posted here

MommaX2Barista2 points2y ago
As a newer barista still learning the ropes, this is AWESOME! I’ve been at my store for about 1.5 months, so this is great and much appreciated!
275bruhista [OP]2 points2y ago
Yay I’m so glad to hear that! Just check the replies here as well because apparently there were a few things I mixed up 😬😂
MommaX2Barista1 points2y ago
Yes!!! And I was just put in charge of training a new partner so this will be super helpful!
crunchynose1 points2y ago
Uh oh I’ve been giving hot drinks 3 shots.
nopenotamanda1 points2y ago
Can’t wait to see the updated one!
kat8331 points2y ago
May I use this?
Luv_13131 points2y ago
I appreciate all the baristas in the world ❤️ much love stay strong 👍👏👏
Luv_13131 points2y ago
Be proud of your achieve 😊 but just remember they will over work you if you let them. Much love to my baristas.

lea-oppalove1 points2y ago
I love this, may I use it in my store? :) I love being a barista trainer. It can be discouraging when they inevitably forget some stuff you taught them, but they will eventually learn thru muscle memory and all the hard work in guiding them feels worth it.
isglitteracolor1 points2y ago
Another thing to add is with Frappuccinos, if it gets frap chips inside it should get mocha drizzle on top.
275bruhista [OP]1 points2y ago
Ooh that’s a good reminder!
hkxh1 points2y ago
Yo yo yo very naice 👌
275bruhista [OP]2 points2y ago
Thank youuuuu 🥰
is_it_soy0 points2y ago
One more thing I’d add on top of what others have said: in your last bubble, change frap to Frappuccino. As a Starbucks trainer, it’s best to maintain the brand image.
275bruhista [OP]1 points2y ago
That’s a good idea! I wanted to do this but was really running out of space and couldn’t quite fit it.
anselgrey0 points2y ago
That is helpful to us that are customers! Thx! :)
aimsthename88-6 points2y ago
Cinnamon Dolce Lattes don’t get whip, only the Frappuccino. Also, might be nice to add the standards for powders (matcha, cloud, etc) on your sheet as well!
beverlycrushers14 points2y ago
CDLs do still get whip and cinnamon dolce topping.
aimsthename881 points2y ago
I’m pretty sure they just get topping
Edit: nevermind, I just looked it up on the app and it *does* get whip! I’ve been making it wrong all this time.
eat-reddit-tv6 points2y ago
The skinny cinnamon dolce latte (SFCD and nonfat) doesn’t get whip, just the topping.
The regular cinnamon dolce latte gets whip and topping.
aimsthename883 points2y ago

596259621 points2y ago
But they literally don't tho???? Tall and grande get the same amount (1 and 2 respectively) Venti hot gets two venti iced gets three. Where so you see less shots??
