Best coffee on Campus (1 Viewer)

[gman03]

Fortnight ago I use the coupon in the back of my diary and went to get a free cuppacino outside library, and that 'cuppacino' tasted like a cup of milk with some coffee powder.. further investigation of that cup of ching-o reveals that it IS a cup of milk, but with less coffee powder than I thought.

Conclusion: there ain't no free lunch..

I shall try coffee elsewhere sometime, thou the latte at colonnade taste good

Yeah, we worked it out, they actually make money from the coupons. They have smaller portions of food coupled with lower food quality. But they make a good profit from the huge numbers of extra patrons.

OMG you know a lot about coffee ...

What is the knife-like thing they use to pour the milk called? And waht is it for?

hahah the technical name for it is a spatula, though most baristas just use a spoon. it is used to pour the froath into the cup. Good baristers dont use it (eg: coffee cart). You use it if u do not control the froath pressure right, hence say if u had more froath than needed, then u cant just pour all of it in, u gotta use a spatula/spoon to control the amt of froath that comes out.

And here I thought all coffees were ok. I don't even notice these things.
You must be trained as a barista?

hahah yeah i have a barista licence from an international coffee school, and i worked at a cafe on oxford st for ages.

a sign of a good barista is when they do not tap the milk jug after froathing, when they do not use a spoon to tranport the froath to cup, and when they do not use a thermometer to monitor the temperature of the milk, they can feel it by just touching the milk jug
