Getting a cup-o-joe before a 9:35 class will likely take longer, after Starbucks announced that baristas will no longer be able to make more than two drinks at once.
The Wall Street Journal reported that Starbucks baristas will be forced to use new rules beginning in November that will make getting a caffeinated drink take twice as long as before.
According to the Wall Street Journal,
Baristas are also supposed to steam milk for each drink rather than steaming an entire pitcher to be used for several beverages. Other instructions include rinsing pitchers after each use; staying at the espresso bar instead of moving around; and using only one espresso machine instead of two, according to the documents.
The company says that the new rules will ensure fresher and more consistent drinks.
