That’s weird you guys say “drain” cause we just be like can you “pull” the cold brew. So I can see the confusion

I can see how that was confusing though. Drain has a very “get rid of it” connotation.
We prefer to harvest our cold brew.

Cut the bagels in half for the morning.

We come in and the bagels were cut in half vertically instead of horizontally.

as a green bean (recently promoted?) i’m happy to say i haven’t done this.

i do make a HUGE mess whenever draining them though, so as long as 90% gets in I feel accomplished

RIP

One of my shifts (she’s been there for two/three years) has recently been telling the other shifts that she “made” cold brew when they switch off. She leaves us thinking that cold brew is ready for tomorrow. I come downstairs for something since I’m usually on CS and head into the dish room. We keep our toddies there on a low shelf. I turn around and see that the toddies have filters in them filled with grounded cold brew. No water. Just the grounds.

She did not “make” shit. She grounded them and left us to fill them. When we called her out on it, she just said “meh. Not my problem after my shift is up.”

But then she got pissy with me yesterday when she said she made cold brew and I asked her “did you put water in it or did you just grind it?” She is a SHIFT.

Alright all of the former green beans who have at one point forgot to grind the beans before brewing them raise your hand 🤚

Lmao yeah I’m not surprised they were confused I’ve never heard someone call it draining. Pull is always a safe bet though

Hahahaha this is so funny to me, as a green bean, because it makes me think of something I did yesterday. A partner handed me a pitcher of black tea, but it was only 1 liter full. She asked if I could swap out the teas, and instead of asking for clarification, I started putting a venti scoop of ice and filling it with water. She looked over at me filling up the pitcher of tea and she was wearing a mask but I could tell her jaw dropped. She said “what are you doing!!” And I then realized I was just supposed to pour the tea from the pitcher into the pitcher we already had on cold bar. Needless to say I brewed a new pitcher after that

One more toddy? Lol damn we make 8.

Hahah omg this has me dying lol I’m on my lunch must protect this green bean haha

Yeah, as a relatively new ssv, I've learned that when giving directions to my newer beans I have to be clear. No but like ULTRA clear on what I ask otherwise we end up with little mishaps like that here and there lol

I’m a green bean and won’t be making this mistake now that I’ve read this post.😂

Make one for tomorrow? Try four.. 😭

What in the Amelia Bedelia...?

We just say “oh can you make cold brew?” Or “can you DO the cold brew?”

My store says can you pour the cold brew

At my store we say “drop” the cold brew, I couldn’t tell you why, the term was already established when I was hired.

Oh no lmaoooo

I choose the term “harvest” when talking about pulling the cold brew, gets a chuckle and a confirmation about 90% of the time.

I can def see where they got confused. I was confused as to why you were asking this poor green bean to dump out your cold brew instead of cubing it! Probably best to steer clear of jargon when training new guys

Me training a Green Bean last week having to explain common sense things. Don’t get me wrong, I love training green beans but when I have to hold their hand each day of their training it gets tiring.

Oh my god I would’ve cried

Have had this exact thing happen before. Why. Why.

Gotta admit, as green bean I once ground fes instead of pike. Found out a month later when my co-worker asked me what I was doing with that fes...
