2nd day Green Bean! (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by hazelnutbeanjuice
I feel extremely overwhelmed with learning the bars today i did hot bar & had the hardest time learning to steam milk. My brain started frying half way through learning hot bar.
We ended up moving to cold bar after everything was done & i felt a bit more comfortable with fraps and refreshers but cold brew made me confused. I know learning comes with time & felt a bit more stable after taking cold bar orders but it just makes me feel like the training is all rushed & you don't get enough time to grasp the information.
Does anyone have any advice on how you got through training & how you figured everything out. :(

ASK FOR BAR TIME! I'm a shifty and trainer and I always put my new baristas on bar as much as I can because, I'm telling you, it all comes with practice and experience. Ask whoever is running the floor that you want practice in a specific position so you can get better at it.
