The reality today
The reality behind the espresso bar
Speed is everything in a café, but consistency is what keeps customers coming back. Opening routines, milk and bean rotation, machine cleaning and barista standards are usually carried in people's heads and on sticky notes.
Where consistency slips
- ✕Drink quality and presentation vary from barista to barista.
- ✕Cleaning and calibration routines get skipped during the morning rush.
- ✕New baristas take too long to reach a consistent standard.
- ✕Multi-site café owners can't tell which locations hold the bar high.
