Cup codes (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Ainoway
Has anyone created a cheat sheet for cup writing by chance? I’m a former partner turned re-hire and looking to update my lil note book I had from before (I’m a 205 so it’s been a minuto)

We uh don’t cup write anymore tbh it’s all on a printed sticker

It's good to know for when the sticker machines go down tho.

Until you’re the only one who can read them 🙃🙃 me and like 3 other people in my store know how and that’s it.

Maybe OP wants to learn new codes so they will be able to read them? I hired in two years ago and I had to do a code writing module. I think it's something people should know in case the machines poop out for any reason. It happened at my store last year and it was a shit show because not many people knew how to read them. lol

This is literally why haha, I never knew how to write cups at my store as we used stickers for literally everything and then one day our sticker machines went down for two days and we all had to learn real quick, and only two partners in the store knew how. And then after that I just liked the ‘craft’ of it and paid attention to the abbreviations on the tills.

Side note I’m also kind of sad starbs moved away from the concept of writing cups, the vibe was different back then. But I also understand it’s easier for peaks and DT

Or if you end up working at a licensed store.

The recipe cards both digital (on iPad) and physical will have the cup codes if you ever need them, as well as POS. :)

In the middle of the small square learning journal for new baristas, there is a complete list
