10. What is a Caf? Breva, and why can it be challenging to make?
How to Answer
The interviewer would like to know that you understand the difference between a cappuccino and a Breva. Sometimes, there are minimal differences between drinks, but a great barista is just like a bartender - able to know the small nuances between drinks. If you know how to make a Caf? Breva, walk the interviewer through it, and discuss why you believe it's harder to make than some drinks. If you do not know how to make a Caf? Breva, that is okay. It's then important you express to the interviewer that you are eager to learn.

1st Answer Example
"Rather than using milk, a Caf? Breva uses half and half. Sometimes, a Caf? Breva is ordered with half-and-half as well as regular milk. From my experience, this drink can be a challenge to prepare since it's more difficult to get half-and-half to foam. It's best to steam and froth the half-and-half to around 150 degrees, then allow it time to set."

"I am not familiar with a Caf? Breva, but my best guess is that it is close to a cappuccino. There are many drinks that I know, and many I have yet to learn. I am eager to become a top barista and look forward to learning more!"
