From someone who loves making Flat Whites... this truly hurts my soul.

I saw flat white and went 😃 and then slowly went to 🙁
TheIvoryKitten 22 points 2y ago
Haha SAME! My heart literally hurt reading the rest of it. Such a shame.
But I do have this one customer that orders a cappuccino, but asks for it to be "very wet"... and every time I just want so badly to say "so a latte?"... but don't cause customer service. Haha

i hated making flat whites until we got the new machines, now they’re one of my favorites to make!!

Latte macchiato!

That it is!

Shots are actually on bottom of those!
KarluhO 2 points 2y ago
No they are not.
irm824 2 points 2y ago
you are correct, was thinking of an espresso macchiato - didn’t even realize a latte macchiato was a thing

So a nonfat triple ristretto latte macchiato

We don't have the latte machiatto button though :(
rio8envy7 3 points 2y ago
I know. It’s what it is though. I didn’t mind the latte macchiatos.
MissyBlissyy [OP] 1 points 2y ago
Super wish we had a button, I see what he was trying to do tho lol

I had a customer order a flat white but then wanted nonfat milk and no foam...

It's a white flat.
(Joke)

This may seem like too much noise on a label but I would love it if there were the following options on the mobile app:

XF - extra foam
LF - light foam
MiF - microfoam

Give every idiosyncratic customer an option to get the flat white microfoam on their caramel macchiatos and lattes. This could potentially weed out a small percentage of these dummies who order flat whites and butcher them.

i always get an iced flat white because it has an extra espresso shot, then i get it with almond milk and add vanilla syrup. sorry 🥺
MissyBlissyy [OP] 1 points 2y ago
Totally not a reason to be sorry! I understand most times it’s for the ristretto shots too!

When someone orders a caramel macchiato upside down it really ruins by soul. What you want is a latte with vanilla and caramel drizzle. Stop being extra

I love making flat whites and this is a disgrace

It looks like my five year old was messing around with my Sbux app and accidentally ordered! 😆
