    I appreciate your content so much! I worked at Muffin Break about 20 years and the way we did things back then I cannot tell you how bad it was. I recently went and did a day course in Prepare and Serve Espresso Coffee as I am wanting to get back into this line of work. The poor habits that were common practice back then were highlighted during this course and watching your channel makes me excited to jump in and be confident in this amazing coffee industry we have in Melbourne, thank you and keep up your wonderful content 👏 p.s a piece of you would die if you saw how me did our milk back then 🤣

    Very well presented topic! Fast, efficient and always on-point, just as the barista workflow you described should be. Insofar as 'speed' goes, it needs to evolve to a reasonable 'faster,' as if not practiced routinely, it's like fumbling the car keys when you're in an emergency - you're going to drop them on the floor almost every time, and take far longer than the 'routine' speed - and likely to spill something. Fast (but effective) needs to be routine. And as pointed out, while the coffee is extracting, there's almost always something else that can be done.
    Great video!

    Even as a home barista i am trying to be as productive as possible. I have for example reduced the time it takes for two cappucino (oat milk and cow milk) by half. Mainly by not waiting for the machine to finish a task but doing useful in between steps.

      As a home barista? What’s the need to be fast then? Lol. Unless you have a train to catch or something. If you’re at home you can slow down and enjoy it more :)

    @karigrandii Před rokem +15

    Tip #1 tell your boss to hire more people and make your work less stressful and more fun. This is so simple but we as workers think we have to be super good fast smart etc then we need better pay, which we are not getting (real wages are smaller than ever)

    • @ArtistiCoffeeRoasters
      @ArtistiCoffeeRoasters  Před rokem +4

      Sure, this is a ever evolving cycle that never works out, higher wages = higher prices, which = less profits which = giver prices and so it continues until the bubble bursts and everyone looses

    • @notsure5955
      @notsure5955 Před 2 měsíci

      Wtf, no, absolutely not that simple. With that mentality you’ll only end up with chain stores/corporations paying you the same or less whilst all small businesses/independent cafes will become history. There are many other variables you have completely ignored.

    I pump out 2 x large coffees at home every morning and to save time I weigh the beans the night before and keep them ready in those small decor containers. Outsourced weighing milk (this has reduced wastage) into the jugs to the hubby while I’m extracting the liquid gold as per recipe and work flow.

    Hi there! I’ve been watching your videos for some time now to help improve my workflow and suggestions from you. Ive only been doing barista work for roughly 3-4 months, and its my second month at a busier cafe which has allowed me more room to grow since its so busy it forces me to get faster in my workflow
    My question for you at the moment, what are your “rules” pr guidelines for leftover milk in jugs? I have a coworker that frequently leaves milk in her jugs and saves it for later to reduce waste. Its often times a lot, like 100- 400 g left over, and I have to ask her “what milk is this, can I dump that” And I find myself ending up dumping it out ANYWAYS because I prefer my jugs clean and not worrying about it. She also has tried separating milk jugs like so:
    350 ml SILVER -> skim
    600 ml SILVER -> fc
    350 ml alternate lab -> free one??
    200 ml (its an awkwardly sized one) colored to alternate milks or something like that
    When normally me and the “head barista” have it as so
    350 & 600 ml SILVER for FC and Skim
    350 & 150 ml colored for alternative milk only
    the question here is should I as a barista be separating skim and FC or is the way I am doing just fine? I dont find myself having copious amounts of milk left over as the example i gave, and my milk jugs stay clean and out of the way. I just don’t know how to tell my coworker (who has been working at my job a bit longer than i ) that its not a good idea. I feel a bit like an asshole sometimes when I have to do this, especially because I haven’t been in the industry very long. There are many more questions I could ask, but this is one that is bothering me as i’m being rostered on with this individual more frequently and it’s disturbing my workflow when i have to stop and ask her what is what and so on.

    • @solsties_
      @solsties_ Před rokem

      to clarify about the milk, it can often go sitting when it relaxes for 15 minutes OR MORE. I just feel wrong about leaving milk out sitting after being steamed

    How to make consistently good coffee shots your restaurant/ Cafe don't weigh shots?

    • @ArtistiCoffeeRoasters
      @ArtistiCoffeeRoasters  Před rokem

      Hopefully your grinder is consistent. I’d suggest weighing your dose to ‘dial in’ when you’re not busy if you don’t have it setup to alway weight shots. This would help.

    @DeeDeeDanone Před rokem +2

    Regarding your puck prep, do you not think you'd be better served by switching out the OCD/NCD for a Duomo needle distribution tool?
    You have the same interaction with it but it'll have superior results which would again improve your coffee and add no extra time.

    • @nzmshmsdn
      @nzmshmsdn Před rokem

      Agree. Needle distributor is the best

    • @ArtistiCoffeeRoasters
      @ArtistiCoffeeRoasters  Před rokem

      We use WDTs when we’re not busy to ensure clumps are broken up and it helps with distribution for sure. The Duomo is even better.
      I’d still probably use an NCD to ensure an even distribution but you’re right, it could be deemed unnecessary.
      Thanks
