How To Process Large Coffee Orders As A Barista
If you've worked as a barista you know that there are times when you're on your own where you get hit with a large complicated coffee order from the one customer. It's easy to get flustered and stumble through but with a few tips from Jimmy hopefully he can help you make the process a whole lot easier. The goal for this is to not only get the drinks prepared in an efficient manner but to also make sure they taste great too.
Jimmy gives advice on which drinks you should prepare first and last as well as some tricks on being efficient with the preparation. Let us know in the comments about a time when you've had to deal with huge orders and how you handled it. Was it smooth sailing or did you struggle? Would also love to know if this video has helped you out in anyway.
Thanks so much for watching!🤟

I sometimes have to work alone on the machine. When it's quiet and it's a few orders, it's okay. But during rush hour, I usually have to rely on a second person for shots. I'm trying to do everything by myself but I find myself struggling a bit. I prep my shots, get a milk going, pull more shots, pour, repeat. I think the most difficult thing is the alternating takeaway and dine orders. I would have to run the dine in coffees myself if others are busy, which ultimately slows my process down, therefore customers waiting longer. 5 minutes okay, 10 minutes I start panicking, 15 minutes I stress out. The other day, we had a 4-5 hour rush and I was alone on the machine. My heart was about to give out. Reached 130 bpm that day...

That’s not a great situation to be in, it will only make you make bad coffee and is not good for your well-being. Can you get a bell for other staff to come and collect the dine -ins, the long wait will only reduce business as customers won’t except this code n the long run. Do 2 TA to 1 dine in as this will allow the speed of a TA to keep the customers happy for grab and go, and the dine in customers are happy to wait a little. If you have a random approach it will never be a standard time for either and they will both not be happy. 👍🏻

Been there before. I used to prioritise the take away orders as the customers are on the go and usually can't wait for their coffees. But you have to be careful not to let the sit in customers wait too long, especially if they are on their own. But it has worked quite well based on experience. Working alone without 2nd person is tough. Need to train someone to help at least putting sugar in, putting lids on, etc

My favourite part about this is that you weren’t trying to rush it. You could’ve pulled some Dritan bullshit and pushed your workflow to the limits, but these were all carefully prepared drinks. My top tip for young baristas is: if you’re in a rush, start the next shot grinding as soon as you’re done with the previous one. Getting your dose precise is something that can eat up time, but if you’re multitasking it’s also something you can do with one hand while completing other tasks. Great vid!

I got two coffees today while buying some beans and a milk jug... i got a medium flat white and a small soy latte. I have been watching and enjoying artisti you tube videos for a while .. since buying a breville coffee machine for home. Ive been keen to come and try you beans as i live in a town not far away. I decided to buy takeaway coffe while buying some beans because i wanted to see how fresh roasted coffee made by someone who knows what they're doing through an expensive and well set up grinder and coffee machine tasted. It was to me a little bit like warm milk with a little bit of coffee taste ... i not complaining but would like to know what to ask for next time im buying beans that would have a lot more kick ? ... i do like milk coffee rather than espresso. Very much looking forward to tasting the sample pack of 4 types of beans especially the single origin columbian (popayan) .. i haven't tried Columbian SO before. Love the videos cheers

What’s your thoughts on doing pour over coffee in cafes? I don’t see many here offering it. It’s just bulk coffee from a drip machine. The one shop that did it, took longer to make the espresso drinks because they spent time on the pour over. When it’s really busy or only one person, it seems like a bad idea. Usually if the shop is showing off some special beans, it will be batch drip. Probably very good batch drip, but 9/10 times it’s not pour over.

I think you’ve answered your own question there. It can add credibility to the cafe for having a specialty coffee offering. But that’s at the risk of slowing down espresso service which is far more of the customer base. It required dedicated staff so would be hard to justify in most locations. We love it, just hard to make it practical. Do you have a cafe?

I'm curious as to why you use the Stagg for your long blacks. I'm assuming it's probably set to a lower standing temperature than the water you'd typically get out of a machine? Currently our workflow is usually fill cups with water from the machine, add shot, and if requested add either some cold water or ice. But I'm interested in this technique.

At 65-70, with the ratio very much towards milk, drinks tend to be at a drinkable temperature just like I make them for myself. But my girlfriend loves it very hot so on my home machine I had to create a routine. Not only dies she like hers hot, she also likes a different type of milk and a different dose. That took some time to get that routine down. Hope to open a place soon. I was almost there early 2020 and am now glad I did not pull the trigger.

What's that silver cup your grind goes into? I've seen people grinder straight into the basket. Also I understand the swirly thing is weighted, but what's that next thing you do to it? It's fascinating and I'm binging these videos!!
@MinersInfinity
2 жыл бұрын
The silver cup is a dosing cup, it's using an accessory for the Anfim grinders that allow you to mount a scale into it. Slight issue with these grinders, it's hard to get them super accurate, so by weighing every shot you can ensure consistency. Grinding into the basket isn't necessarily a bad thing at all but this method ensures consistency between shots, and can also help point out to you if something is wrong with the grinder. Also looks like it keeps things clean too, which sometimes becomes an issue grinding straight into the baskets... The swirly thing you see isn't really all that weighted, it's an ONA/Nucleus coffee distributor, it essentially just helps to level the grinds in an equal manner. What he's doing next is inserting it into a PuQ Press - an automatic shot tamper that can be configured for tamping pressure. Generally just helps to avoid giving baristas RSI. Agree that these are super interesting videos - every barista and store has their own technique and it's interesting to see and learn how others do it different.

Considering how many drinks have Italian names and backgrounds, why don't barista outside of Italy learn a little Italian in relation to these drinks?
