please correct me if i’m stupid (i’m a green bean with little coffee knowledge) but isn’t this just a latte?
Art3mmis [OP]36 points1y ago
yes. yes it is. it’s a latte with no foam and that’s exactly how i made it and he seemed satisfied. meanwhile i was like ?????

I blame the gas station “cappuccino” machines that pretty much make lattes instead of actual cappuccinos

I had a short cappuccino once with extra foam so I aerated it twice and spooned the foam twice into the cup, and it still wasn’t enough for her so I did it again and then she said it was good but then she wanted some cold milk to pour into it 🙃

I had a lady that came in every day for her 4 shot no milk all foam cappuccino.. took me 4 tries to get it right . Always with the damn nonfat!!!

The oat milk, coconut milk and the whole milks foam less then the 2percent and people don’t understand that and still expect the cappuccino to come out one hundred percent foam it can if u steam the milk pitcher like 2 or 3 times but that’s time costly specially at my store we are the busiest starbuvks in the district of 15 stores

When she came in we already had 3 pitchers ready to go.. then the next 4 ppl just got nonfat in their drink... And I say this I don't regret it.

tbf I'm cool with that if they specifically say it. One lady at my store gets it that way but is very specific, patient and understanding about it.

why would he even get anything larger than a short🙄
Art3mmis [OP]6 points1y ago
oh sorry, ignore the nonfat 1/2”. my coworker on pos at the time still forgets left side for lattes so things tend to print like this when she’s on reg lol. it’s just a nonfat cappuccino (or more realistically, a nonfat latte)
Former-Highway-66655 points1y ago
hahahaha ok ok i gotcha. it’s giving the same vibes as “iced caramel macchiato upside down no caramel drizzle”
uwumoment2 points1y ago
i feel bad for those customers sometimes lol but at the end of the day it’s their money
Former-Highway-66652 points1y ago
One of my coworkers gets it ahhhh (with caramel drizzle tho, less of an abomination) but at least it’s a markout when she does but stilll

Yesterday someone ordered a venti mango dragonfruit half water half lemonade with 4 scoops of matcha powder. I tried it and... 🤢🤮

So this is just a latte… just called a cappuccino cause with no foam which is what a cap is would just be steamed milk and espresso making it a latte
Art3mmis [OP]2 points1y ago
yes
