Professional barista communication, please pay attention to coffee workshop (Weixin Official Accounts cafe_style )

Starbucks which size is cost-effective, three or five will be discussed, refers to small cup, medium cup actually is to add one espresso coffee and milk, large cup only start to add two espresso coffee, if you want coffee stronger, cup volume increase is not necessarily cost-effective, unified Starbucks confirmed, small cup, medium cup really is to add one espresso coffee, large cup, extra large cup is to add two, global Starbucks formula is consistent.

Recently, some online media quoted the Japanese forum website "Rocket24" as saying that Japanese Starbucks employees refer to "the middle cup is absolutely stupid at Starbucks", because a small latte is an espresso with milk; if it is a medium latte, it is also an espresso with milk, and there will be two espressos in the large cup, while the extra large cup is three, and the rest of the capacity is supplemented by milk. Not only lattes, but cappuccinos and mochas are the same.

The same content, in the past also shared by netizens, refers to Americans all order large cups, not extra large cups, because large cups and extra large cups are two espresso coffee, the rest of the capacity is milk, but extra large cups are much more expensive, from the caffeine label can also be seen that the two are actually equivalent.

Starbucks said that Starbucks 'taste formula is basically the same all over the world. Small cups and medium cups are added with one espresso coffee, and large cups and extra large cups are added with two espresso coffee. This is "in order to balance the flavor." People can choose according to their own tastes and needs. The above quote from the Japanese forum is incorrect.

According to Starbucks 'official website, Short refers to 8 oz (about 240 ml) drinks, Tall refers to 12 oz (about 360 ml) drinks, Grande refers to 16 oz (about 480 ml) drinks, and Venti refers to 20 oz (591ml) drinks. One shot of espresso is about 1oz.

Take Thernadi as an example, the current price is 110 yuan for small cups, 120 yuan for medium cups, 135 yuan for large cups and 150 yuan for extra large cups.

However, many people, to Starbucks are often reminded by the clerk, the minimum capacity in the store is the tall (Tall), the store price list is also common only medium cup, large cup, extra large cup price information, but unified Starbucks said, in fact, hot drinks, there are still small cup specifications, but cold drinks including frappuccino are from the middle cup.
