Baristas are made in this way. it's not easy to be a good barista.

It is not easy to be a good barista. "Technology is the most basic skill of baristas, and coffee quality should come first." Deng Xuran honed himself like a devil for this. In the first class, the teacher told her that she could no longer eat heavy food such as greasy, sour and spicy food, and that she immediately quit to keep the taste buds clear.

"is there a time when you are particularly patient in the process and want to break the precepts?"

Unexpectedly, Deng Xuran said, "I used to like heavy taste, and I often drank with my friends, but after the teacher said, I quit completely the next day, and even my friends put all kinds of drinks on the table, and I was not moved."

Deng Xuran has stomach problems since childhood, and it is well known that coffee irritates the stomach. "during training, we will taste coffee from different producing areas, and if we really drink it, I will endure a stomachache and vomit after class." So far, she has tasted nearly a thousand different kinds of coffee beans. "it's really painful for people like me who grew up with poor geography to remember all their names, producing areas and geographical knowledge." As a result, she recognized many countries and regions between latitudes 25 degrees north and south.

Deng Xuran has not been exposed to coffee for a long time, just over two years. "everyone in college drank instant coffee. The first time I drank espresso was when my first boyfriend took me on a date." Because he learned to draw from an early age and studied advertising design, Deng Xuran was surprised when he saw the espresso. "at that time, I thought the pattern on the coffee was wonderful." Later, she went to this store to take a part-time job. "as a result, she washed the cup for three months!"

After graduation, despite the opposition of friends and family, Deng Xuran took the professional course of baristas at his own expense. "when I opened a credit card behind my parents' back and swiped it to learn coffee, I felt very rich in spirit."

Deng Xuran finally became a real barista, "but my parents always thought I was working as a waitress." In order to prove her efforts, she took her mother to Nanjing to make coffee by hand. "although she resisted, she drank it, and when I asked her how she was, she never said anything."

The happiest job in life is to do what you like to do. only when you like your work, you will always be enthusiastic about your work and be dedicated to your work. Unfortunately, most people choose jobs that they don't like in order to make a living. Don't give up doing your dreams at this time, and sometimes even ask yourself what you really want to do and whether you can support your dreams through your current job.
