RM5/hr have to do every thing.
a friend told me, Starbucks barista is not for human. the post as 'barista', you have to do every thing wash plate, cups, throw rubbish, wipe table, make coffee, cashier, dessert and etc. |

Better quality than what you can get in the supermarket. their grind setting probably wrong ... dunno how often they check itI just dunno how they manage to fuck it up when they make your coffee. But you ask any decent barrista who knows their stuff, they'll all tell you Starbucks makes the milk too hot. |

Kns laa this branch... Last time I went there, I realize the price more expensive. I thought Starbuck also increased their price due to various economy factor.
So I ask the cashier is it true? He told me no, this branch is memang more expensive and high keras. I ask him again, so the beans are of better quality? No also. Only different is that outlet design are of designer's quality, nothing to do with the drink. So u are buying the environment... I cannot accept such explanation as I dun feel anything special compare to other branches. Sit also not like lebih comfortable. Will definitely boikot this branch... Bodo, if ppl dapao then u also wanna charge higher? Bean quality same only cibai Vincent tan... |

QUOTE(sendoh_7 @ Oct 13 2015, 04:27 PM) Have you been in the US? Agreed. Too watered down, even Colombia brew I tried in US also watered down (I tried homebrewed colombia beans bought in Giant Malaysia is better). Heck, Kapal Api is so far one of the best in my book.Their Americano is a watered down espresso, and their normal coffee is not that strong either Our kopi kampung is much thicker..... |

Haha, I am not such an expert coffee connoisseur.There are those who follow the barista, the barista leaves the cafe, so do the customers. Also we have those who follow which roastery the cafe sources. Alot keep clear of green-badged cafes serving charcoal beans. And then we have those sheep who follow the big brands like a cult. Doesn't matter, had Then brag about quality. But I know just enough to be able to able to tell that Starbuck somehow makes a very flat coffee with no character. Which is odd, really, since their beans are actually quite decent when you go to take a look. They also overheat their milk. I heard its because Malaysian customers (them ignorant fools) kept asking why the milk isn't hot enough. Good cafes stick to the proper temperature (65-70 celsius, as milk denatures above 70) and will only boil it (in other words, ruin the cup) on customer request. Info for the sheep right there, on the nature and art of coffee. Starbucks also seems to specialize more in frappucinos, which is incidentally coffee made from lower quality beans than that which is used for hot coffee. Why lower quality? Because you can't fucking tell the difference in those sugar-loaded cups of crap. Some places do know how to make a good cold brew though. I usually only ever drink hot coffee. Flat whites for preference. Lattes on occassion. Long black if they have really good beans and the barrista seems to know their stuff. |

Walked into the Reserve, hardly can smell any coffee. took a quick look, same old barrista kids, nice reno with price increase and place jammed with people. Many amoi Also. This place, coffee really does no big deal. End up I walked back to my old fav jamaica blue coffee, where u can have serious coffee.

QUOTE(xpole @ Oct 18 2015, 09:34 AM) You know right Starbucks is famous. well for many people, coffee is just another drinkFor example you go Starbucks Setia Alam. It's crowded like pasar malam on Friday & Saturday night. And one of our culture is "Tidak boleh tunggu lama lama, nanti marah, complain slow service". only a handful of arses like me have expectation towards coffee and go anal over a messed up espresso to milk ratio in a cappuccino that's why i said... shit baristas can't differentiate latte and cappuccino... to them because of the long queue, just top up the cappuccino with milk, nobody's going to give a crap if it taste like latte anyway |

Starbucks fail in nations where coffee has some standard. Likewise mass produced Asian food here don't work well.

QUOTE(xpole @ Oct 18 2015, 09:28 AM) Why u guys complain about shit barista? You expect the barista do their job slow and nicely when there are many customers waiting for their drinks? i worked as a barista before. start work at 8am and continuous non stop until 11am + . This was in Melbourne CBD Queens St. There's absolutely no excuse to give bad coffee even if you have a long line of people waiting. |

Somehow now we got coffee hierarchy:
Coffee for Upper tier - starfudge reserve Coffee for Middle tier - starfudge/coffeebean/san francisco/etc Coffee for lower tier - kopi o kaw << Always win and always be. Heck even the upper tier and middle tier still go for kopi o kaw |
