Stop grass I’m crying 😭😭

My trainer would say Christmas colors get classic and it helped me a lot.

The classic was removed from the hot and iced matcha green tea lattes. The frappuccino still gets 2/3/4 **hot bar** pumps of classic.

The STCF gets 2/3/4 **cold bar** pumps of classic, or half pumps.

I always check the register for recipes tbh if I forget and it says it has classic in those

I had the same reaction when one of my coworkers mentioned it lmao. We had to pull out the iPad to settle it

one of my managers had me draw fraps on a chalk board to fill in some empty space and i was going off the app for my reference pictures and that’s how we discovered the apple crisp is layered 😭

ETA-- I replied to the wrong person, but hopefully I can get an answer lmao.

Wait, can you please explain how we are supposed to layer it? I didnt know this and I am a new kiosk manager so im trying to learn it all, lol. We never received the recipe cards, so I just assumed it was a normal frap with the drizzle on top?

Cinnamon goes on the Chai Frap? I didn’t know this

i forget all the time!! and when someone orders white mocha, for example, in a cold brew i never know if they want full pumps or not

like how frappuccinos are supposed to have pumps that already give our half a pump, but sometimes a store will put a regular pump dispenser so baristas are putting double the amount of syrup

Steep earl grey in a short cup with proper number of tea bags for 5 min, prepare a shaker with ice and syrup. After brew time shake in shaker to rapid cool the tea pour into ice cup and top with milk and stir.

I do believe this is the right way.

Yes, please! I’ve been fixing the Nitro stuff in sbux and people had no training on the equipment. Read the instructions and slowly work with it - if you are in a rush things get clogged or broken and you will loose a lot of time troubleshooting and / or getting it fixed.

Remove the grey gas tube first, then the black liquid tube. Release the air pressure by pulling on the ring in the lid before opening it. To hook up the new keg, the grey gas line goes first, into the "IN" port. The black liquid line goes into the "OUT" port. Then you open the taps to pour out the cold brew until the consistency looks correct.

There you go!

uhhhh wait, how were y'all making caramel macchiatos before??? /concern

When you’re brewing blonde, medium, and dark roast in the morning the only urn that should have a tag hung on it is the “now brewing” urn. While the others should be in their correct spots that have stickers on the stand. Unless unusual circumstances happen like running out of coffee or brewing for a traveler then you should put tags on them if they’re in incorrect spots.

With the hang tag system you should only be utilizing 3 tags (blonde, medium, dark) and have the hooks that hold em with the stickers “brew blonde” “brew medium” and “brew dark” under each hook. Only two stickers should be covered at the time with tags while the empty hook has the sticker visible to indicate which coffee to brew next. This ensures that you are brewing each coffee in order while making sure you have it available by brewing a fresh batch before you empty the old batch and they don’t go cold by the time you brew more again.

For example:

If I’m currently finished brewing blonde roast on the “now brewing” spot, I’d empty out the old blonde and replace it with the new blonde. I’d then take the tag off that urn and since the empty hook sticker says “brew medium” next, I’d cover the “brew medium” sticker hook’s spot with the blonde roast tag then take the medium roast tag which then reveals “brew dark” for the next cycle. It’s really confusing to put into words lol. If I could put video i would! Sorry guys 😅 229**** partner here. I’m mainly an opener and I can say I’ve probably CSed more than I have any other position TBH. And I enjoy the fast-pace and physicality of running around 😂

Omg you should try a blonde espresso macchiato with soy milk. Steam chai into the soymilk and you'll get heaven in a short cup.

Exactly. I also like to ask the customers if they want drizzle if they get a frap with java chips that normally doesn't.

Thanks, glad someone who is a subject matter expert explained it for people.

oh sweet!! i clearly didn't know that and was hoping no one would point it out lol

I mean thats understandable. Doing it just because you don't want to is a whole other issue. My store has no standards and coming from a previous store that did its a bit aggravating.

I’ve just started having an americano, if it’s after peak.

I’ve been told a strict 4🤦🏻‍♀️

I’m not a barista lol… this just popped up on my newsfeed this morning. I use to follow the Starbucks boards but they are WAY too negative for me. So I was happy to have something from a Starbucks board that wasn’t so depressing to read.

Ours is, “if it gets the chip, it gets the drip.”

Yeah, at my store it’s like same dumb question everyday. It could be same person who came yesterday for a drink and then come back the next day, asking same question. That’s why I always tell my trainees to ask if it’s not in the peak time.
