weird way to order a doppio with a splash of cream

True but in store orders u can get steamed cream easier.... but we are mostly baristas here... I'm preaching to the choir

karen doesn’t even want the cream steamed she didn’t ask for it to be.

Classic Karen

Espresso macchiatos come standard with a little bit of foam, but none of the milk, so regardless the milk has to be steamed.
clouds183 3 points 6m ago
she wanted no foam, and a splash of cream. if you’re steaming anything it would be 2% but macchiatos are espresso and 2% milk foam. she wants no foam so just espresso. and she didn’t change the 2% to cream.

If there's a fraction of an inch next to the milk, then as per standard you do NOT steam that milk. So unless the drink was ordered breve, the cream is not supposed to be steamed.
We have a customer who knows this, and orders an espresso macchiato made with whole milk, and a splash of heavy cream.

Tell me you don’t know what you’re ordering without telling me you don’t know what you’re ordering, Karen’s going first and judging by the name going to throw a fit when she gets it lol

I'm the guy who will tell a customer what the just actual ordered if the line out the door...

Yeah u just ordered a double with foam...but no foam and cream

i feel like she wanted steamed cream but you can’t do that mod in the app
DIRTY_REDD__ [OP] 1 points 6m ago
But still that mod technically wouldn’t be steamed cream
PluralPaul 1 points 6m ago
If they had ordered it to be made breve, cream doesn't foam very well anyway so they would've had something closer to what they wanted, especially because then we can steam the cream as per standard

Thats what I did

They probably want a doppio with some steamed cream
makmelaf17 3 points 6m ago
Oh in that case order in store

Mobile probably faster unless your store has some shitty baristas

It’s not shitty baristas, it’s the fact that the majority of stores prioritize drive thru over mobile and cafe. Mobile is hardly ever faster as district supervisors hound us about having drive through times under a certain average. On top of that, staffing shortages. Get your facts right before you make an insult and maybe have a little empathy, thanks.

Drive thru isn’t even mentioned. Mobile will always be faster than cafe unless you’re doing your routine wrong. And it will be faster to do mobile unless you have a shitty barista

I think this person wanted a cortado but wasn’t sure if there was an easier way to order it or not
