I worked as a barista for two years in the past. I got a new job at Peet’s. I was steaming the milk and gently tapping the pitcher to know when I would stop steaming. My trainer told me I should never do that because I will get burned. I have never been burned before. It is just habit since I have a manual espresso machine at home.

I also got the cappuccino I was making snatched out of my hand by her because I put the espresso shot first instead of the steamed milk and foam. I guess we put the espresso shot last here at Peet’s. Although, I am used to always putting the shot first since that’s how traditional cappuccino’s are made.
