I am so grateful for the founder of Starbucks. It had its beginnings in Seattle near where I live.
Yeah starbucks really defines what nice coffee shop should look like. They were the example to follow and changed coffee drinking forever. I can't have caffeine though hahaah.
Starbucks uses automated espresso machines unlike their competitors who focus on lighter roasts.
Yeah I am a fan of automating things when possible, I understand that it can take jobs, but I think technology is often better than the human hand. One thing that can be dangerous about starbucks is the fact that they use a lot of caffeine.
Yes, it is the brewing process that makes the espresso very concentrated. I absolutely love it though.
Yes, I once had an expresso shot at a starbucks back when I willingly had caffeine. It definitely did the job. I think americans just love coffee shops in general, starbucks is lucky enough to dominate the market so much
The US has over 23,000 Starbucks locations because of us caffeine hungry Americans.
Yeah, but I think at some point the caffeine market will take a hit. I understand that there will always be people who need energy and need a boost. But there is a rise of juicing places in recent history. Cold pressed juices and acai bowls are becoming a huge thing!
Yes, I've heard about that. The down size is that a 12-ounce bottle can cost up to $12.
