Green beans should only worry about accuracy, and then take on the challenge of going fast later! Believe me, it happens before you even notice!

me.Sometimes im 40 drinks deep and i go out my body and watch my physical body just kill that rush!

I’ve seen someone make 7 drinks at once meaning they are using all the espresso and blenders as well as using shakers it was amazing I can only do 4-5 at once… You’ll get there I believe in you!!

Don’t worry after your first year or so you physically become part robotic.
As in reading these comments I’m interested to too see how Disassociation from the task seems to be quite common among long time baristas.
I’ll just be thinking about the philosophy of the dune series or something just fucking zoning while my body is just making all these drinks.

But it just comes with time do it right then do it right fast then forget about it

one of the shifts at my store did solo bar during peek and got a 36, i personally have done a 38 solo during peek :)

First store was the 4th busiest Starbucks in the city. I’m only fast because I double on drinks when I can. That means steaming milk to the max line and so on. But my first store, everyone was fast and clean — and they don’t double on drinks, even the store manager goes on bar. I was trained to be like them but still lacked in a way. I was like venom and they were like riot or carnage. Every other stores I’ve been to was just messy and not that fast.

You will get there. Just try your best on making the drinks right and then figuring out what is the best method to tackle multiple drinks, it comes with them. Then the messiness will also improve

honestly it just comes with practice. i used to be amazed by my coworkers and how hast they were on bar and now i’m that coworker who is fast on bar. It took me about 4 months with being out on bar every day for hours.

my lowest during peak was 34, my managers is 31, and my boyfriend just recently got 27 somehow
