If someone orders a Frappuccino without whip, do you put a nitro lid on, or a flat lid? #argumentinthestore (self.starbucksbaristas)

Who tf is lying to you and told you to put on a nitro
kaefeen 13 points 1y ago
flat bc sipping it with a nitro lid and no straw is low key psychotic

Flat lid, dome lids without whip look sooo wrong
Necessary_Low939 10 points 1y ago
Our store only use cold brew lids when we’re out of flat 🤪 so no argument there for us
IzzyLac 10 points 1y ago
Flat, they’re not sipping a frapp so def not nitro
nicolelynnejones 7 points 1y ago
My front teeth are shuttering just thinking about that
NoteNo7114 [OP] 4 points 1y ago
No like we put the nitro on so the straw fits in it better for them to drink from the straw
shipssiren 15 points 1y ago
Noooooooo, you can fit a straw through the flat lid perfectly fine

I had a customer tell me they prefer the nitro lid because the flat lid squishes the straw. But I usually only give the nitro lid to her.

I second this. The flat lid always squished the straw especially the bigger straw. Sometimes they sorta break and it’s hard to drink

Whatever is closer. Why would it even be an argument?

Can’t believe I had to scroll this far to find this answer 😂

I put nitro lids on. You all are psychos if you decide to let someone slap a straw through a sippy cup lid

Everyone at my store puts a flat lid, but I went to another store in our district that gave me a nitro on my blended lemonade and I liked the function/visual of it much more so that’s what I do now. Especially since California is being difficult about straws and utensils.

until some of the frapp spills out of the nitro lid
alyssughjo 2 points 1y ago
I’ve had nitro drinks spill out of the lid but never a frap 😂 maybe if it got knocked over

You have nitro lids? 🤣🤣🤣

my ASM told me today that the standard is dome but i usually use nitro and hand them a straw

Flat + straw if they ask

I personally like it better with a nitro lid, but we’re constantly running out so I use a flat
CaterpillarSpecial 1 points 1y ago
Definitely flat! Nitro is only for nitros or drinks w foam

Flat! It’s in the beverage resource manual :)

Nitro is only for nitro drinks and drinks with cold foam

dome lol
nutria_twiga 3 points 1y ago
Why waste a dome lid if there's no whip? Also, some kids suuuuuck to put on. So...why?
pinkyogi 1 points 1y ago
straw

Frap, imagine getting a slurpee with a flat lid😭
props-and-meyhem 0 points 1y ago
Personally I put a nitro lid but if I make a frap on my break imma put a nitro lid because it's easier to get all the frap slumped up lol

Dome lid
fuwaldah -4 points 1y ago
I put a dome lid on. They're the best for straws in my opinion.
NoteNo7114 [OP] 2 points 1y ago
Standards says flat lid for not whip. But a store manager said it gets nitro which makes more sense to me
fuwaldah -11 points 1y ago
I'm not aware of any standard. As I said, I use a dome because that makes the most sense.
dazedandconfusedhere 3 points 1y ago
It’s in the beverage resource manual :)
fuwaldah 1 points 1y ago
That was a standard before strawless lids were introduced. I will check the BRM tomorrow and see what the new standard is.
