My old store had a good portion of their stuff still in the back room in boxes mid-December.
I got all (well, most of) the good loot at another store though.

I got my refillable tumbler the first weekend that there was 30% off F/F. I plan on getting a coffee every morning on the way to work and another one on the way home at a different store. I'm a cheater.

Hi! I'm currently in training to become a team lead for starbucks since our old one left... I need some help figuring out some DPCI's since no one else at my store knows what they are for these items... Do any of you know the DPCI for the square thing we use to mix mocha? The one at my store cracked... I also need to know the DPCI for the sanitizer/wipe tray for the bar... and the DPCI for the dairy blender pitcher as well... thanks

 

[Yetive]

Congrats! We don't use cubes to mix mocha, but a pitcher.
Cube 260 05 0186 probably what you use for mocha.
Markout pitcher 260 04 0711 what we use for mocha.
Dairy pitcher 260 04 0225
Sanitizer tray 260 04 0042

I always mix mocha in a one gallon pitcher ("pitcher measure markout 1 gal" 260-04-0711). Maybe you're mixing it in the cubes that we use to hold coffee beans ("container 8 quart white" 260-04-0801, lid is 0802). While I'm at it, the mocha container is "container plastic mocha" 260-04-0771 and the lid to it is "lid ss container" 260-04-0772.

As for the sanitizer wipe tray, we haven't use that for a couple years. We should be using sanitizer wipes that you can order on SAP; the part number is SW001 (thanks @Yetive from earlier in this thread). And I see she already got the number for the dairy blender pitcher before I could get to it!

 

[Yetive]

We still use a tray for the used wipes. Not sure you can still order it though.

When are we getting this weeks order? It didnt come friday

 

[Yetive]

If you normally get it Friday, it should come Monday. You should be able to double check on the ordering site.

Those look about right, do you think they are in the new winter recipe book?

 

[Asuras]

I have the Citrus Defende Tea card. The other 3 are just the tea bag.

There is no flipping Harry Potter Secret Menu!

There is no flipping Harry Potter Secret Menu!

But the butter beer frap is almost the only secret menu drink I actually know off the top of my head!

 

[Yetive]

I had a relative ask me about it. I told her she was dead to me.

 

[redeye58]

One of my nieces asked about the Butter Beer & I just gave her a 'go to hell' look.

 

[TargetLounger]

Hahaha! You guys crack me up.

I have a very early 4am start time tomorrow to setup for Winter Launch and put away my palets that arrived today. I was in desperate need of merchandise and some product too! Holiday ordering sucks.

 

[Komodobux]

Winter ordering in general sucks. I’ve had guests angry at my team because our order last week came in completely frozen. Over 90% of liquid stock arrived completely exploded all over so we’re out of a lot. Yay!

 

[Yetive]

Ugh. Hate that. At least it was cold so the pallet wasn't covered with bugs.

 

[Planosss]

How are you guys sampling the blonde espresso? As a latte, misto or something else?

Meanwhile we got a misdirect of java chips one July; each bag was a melted, fused glob.

Depends. Do you have two machines with blonde in the decaf spot? Then I would sample the featured blonde espresso beverage.
If one machine, sample the blonde misto or the featured vanilla coconut milk latte

 

[Asuras]

I wish I had a second espresso machine. Won't get one until our remodel in May. It is confirmed that my Starbucks area is tripling in space and moving to the opposite side of our grocery side to where our guest service sits right now.

 

[Planosss]

Ive heard that sbux TL position will be no longer.. Consumables TL will be taking over... with like a Food Assistant at sbux?

Awesome! More space and closer to the entrance. You should kill it for sales. And, you won't have to close for the work.

 

[Asuras]

Ha, good luck with that one. My official title is went from Starbucks TL to Food Service TL early last year. I don't see that happening to high volume stores. But it is already happening in small stores around me.
