If you are paying just to drink coffee, you are good with the price. With that being said, the meaning of coffee being overpriced is actually not coffee. You are paying more because of the skill, the art, and also the talent that the barista has in making the specialties coffee such as latte, macchiato, and many others.
2) Larger Cups Do Not Have More Coffee
In any coffee shop that exists worldwide, the small size of cup and also the large size of a cup each contain two shots of espresso only. The large size of a cup just has more milk or water in it. So if it is caffeine that you are after in your coffee, size actually does not matter. You just have to order an extra shot of espresso instead.
3) Some Chains Have Strong Coffee While Some Others Have Weak Coffee
Different coffee shops have different strengths of coffee. This is because the strength of coffee actually depends on what type of coffee beans they are using. For example, McDonald’s has the weakest taste of coffee beans while Dunkin Donut has such a strong coffee bean taste.
4) Barista Have To Taste Coffee Many Times A Day
If you think your barista is super nice to you because they like you, you might want to think again because the statement is actually so wrong. The truth is, baristas have to taste coffee a lot of times when they are working in the coffee shops. That means it is just the baristas are caffeinated.
5) Always Check If Barista Weighs Ground Coffee
If you have the time, always check if the barista in the coffee shops are weighing the coffee beans when they are making your coffee. If they do, and the barista also measures the seconds when they are making the espresso, the coffee that they made for you is going to taste really good.
