Since the parts were large, it should be possible to find them and take them out in time. Why did they appear in the coffee? In response, the Starbucks store manager said that the employee who made the coffee was a deaf person and did not hear the sound of parts falling during operation. Because the parts were at noon, they sank to the bottom of the cup after falling, and the espresso liquid dropped the parts. In addition, the color of the parts was similar to that of coffee, so the employees did not notice.

The store manager further explained that the coffee was made by a Starbucks deaf partner, so no sound of parts falling was heard during operation, and because the metal part sank to the bottom of the cup after falling heavy objects, it was not detected.
