Decaf apparently has too much caffeine(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by FelixFelic1x
So today while i was at drive a woman came to the screen saying she wanted a mocha caramel frappe. This was whatever, it wasnt until she said she wanted like no caffeine in it. So i said alright we can make it decaf. She responded with she only wanted a quarter of a shot of decaf. She on top of this was saying a bunch of other stuff, making it more confusing. She kept telling me she cant handle caffeine (in my head im like then why are you getting something coffee based) and she kept saying that the decaf had too much caffeine, like ???? I kept trying to figure out what she meant cause the way she was explaining was probably not the best way. I called over a more experienced partner cause she was getting upset with me. I didn’t hear what she said to my coworker but she did have to defend me. She was just overall rude, as we were just trying to make sure we got her what she wanted. Plus what she was saying was dumb anyways. Just releasing some frustration and can anyone figure out what she meant lol

Next time someone says decaf is too much, offer them a creme based Frap, flavored milk, or flavored steamed milk.
As someone who had to cut all caffeine out due to my meds, sometimes decaf was too much for me until I had to rebuild the tolerance while I was adjusting to my meds. It happens.

We did offer her that but she insisted on there still being coffee. Thats what we thought was so odd, like if you can’t handle it, we dont want there to be an issue from you having too much caffeine by accident

How many shots is standard for a decaf frappe? I’m trying to find the answer but this is the closest subreddit I found. Is it 1 shot for all sizes and replace the frappe roast?
Also it’s only 1 shot for espresso frappes right? For all sizes.

Decaf coffee has trace amounts of caffeine. The decaffeination process removes about 97% of caffeine.

Yeah, it can still have anywhere from 3 milligrams to 12 I believe
