Recently, Lucky has successively launched new products such as light milk tea and ice shake series, which greatly satisfy consumers who pursue freshness. But for lucky employees, more and more new products mean more syrup, thick milk, fruit juices and other materials.

They squat down and stand up many times a day at the bar, take materials out of the refrigerator to make drinks, and put them back when they are done. If you encounter a burst order, the bar that has not had time to clean up is like having just experienced a war, with milk boxes, juice bottles and so on lying askew on the table.

Such a tragic war situation once made countless beating workers wail, and some people suggested to Ruixing that it would be better to make reference to other tea shops and use machines and equipment to reduce their workload and improve the efficiency of their products. Recently, Rui Xing heard the employees' inner expectations and really arranged the tea machine!

It is understood that a blogger found a piece of work that mentioned "Ruifan-intelligent tea machine" in the newly released internal affairs of Ruixin, and confirmed that the news was true after verification with other lucky employees. Intelligent tea machine has been tried out in some stores in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

According to the pictures of the workers, the tea machine can store juice, milk, thick milk, tea and other materials commonly used in the production of drinks. When making drinks, as long as you scan the code, you can automatically produce the ingredients according to the formula, which greatly saves the operation that needs to be weighed manually in the production process.

When many employees saw this convenient new machine, on the one hand, they lamented that Lucky was becoming more and more like a milk tea shop, even installing a tea machine. On the other hand, he envied it bluntly that he didn't have to move up and down the bar like a gopher, reducing the amount of exercise and doing it faster at the same time.

However, the clerk who has used the tea machine is not too happy, saying that he wants to "go back to the past." They say that while the tea machine increases productivity, it also brings a new burden of work-it takes about an hour to clean the machine at night.

According to the shop assistant, in order to ensure food safety, the boxes and hoses in the tea machine that are in direct contact with the raw materials are thrown and renewed every day. In addition to these parts that need to be replaced, the machine itself has to be cleaned every day, and the whole process takes at least an hour. People who have worked in milk tea shops have also said that although the intelligent tea machine is convenient and fast, the cleaning and maintenance of the follow-up equipment is very troublesome and time-consuming.

This worries the eagerly awaited workers. If the equipment is cleaned in advance, although there is no need to work overtime, the orders received later need to return to the original production process. But if you wait until the store closes before cleaning the machine, there is no doubt that employees need to work overtime.

At the thought of this, the shop assistants frowned one after another. "No shelves", "Don't wash to death when you're closed this night", "I beg! don't do it!" "it takes half a day to install in the morning shift and half a day to wash in the evening shift."

However, employees who have experienced the new equipment say bluntly that there is no need to worry in advance. After all, the tea machine is relatively large, and the installation needs to change the internal layout of the bar, and it is more suitable for stores with more cups, such as some stores that sell two to three hundred cups a day and do not have enough bar space may not be able to install this machine that can improve efficiency.

So lucky workers in small stores may be able to breathe a sigh of relief and continue to use measuring cups and what the kitchen calls "handmade" drinks.
