Tips for training new baristas? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Dyke_in_dickies
We have one newer barista on bar who continues to struggle keeping up with orders(high volume store) and we are looking to train more people and I need tips on how to help new partners understand bar better and keep up with the pace of the store 👍🏼

Not sure if this helps but for me it made it easier for me to always focus on BR2. Focus only on the two drinks you are currently working on, don't focus on the line of stickers. Keeps your mind sharp focusing only on two recipes. But we are ALL vastly different learners so it can be different person to person.

\^ This. Staying in beverage routine is what saves me. Also, if there is no cold bar partner, getting them in the habit of where to pause when making hot and cold drinks would be helpful. I struggled with that. So for example, if they have milk steaming and shots pulling, they can go and start their refresher but don't add the ice yet, and then go back to the hot drink. Once the hot drink is finished, then they can add ice to the refresher, etc.

But also like Thee\_Lizard\_Head stated, we are all different learners, so maybe try to pinpoint what exactly they're struggling with and go from there. Good luck!
