Two cappuccinos I made one after the other in my café today. This couple came in and wanted large cappuccinos, so I made them in our 16oz cups. Not my cup of tea (nor coffee) but if I can make what you want, I will! Unfortunely, my muscle memory is attuned to steaming/pouring 8oz capps, and so the first one came out somewhat more phallic than I intended 😅

The only thing worse than a shitty pour is a shitty pour in the same order as a drink you nailed.

How do y'all feel about customers taking pictures of your latte art?

I've yet to meet a barista who wasn't delighted to see someone snap a pic of their latte art!

Although, between you and me, I've had more customers excited for the most basic pours than any of the more elaborate stuff. I'll pour a sweet-looking swan and no one bats an eye, yet people'll go gaga over a simple heart pour.
