Quality Tips

• Adjust to customer preference

❌ Don't:

• Add powder directly to cold liquid (won't dissolve)
• Use clumpy or expired powder
• Mix with wet spoon (causes clumping in container)
• Store near heat or moisture

Troubleshooting

Powder Won't Dissolve

Problem: Clumps remaining in drink

Solutions:

• Use hotter water initially
• Shake longer/harder
• Break up clumps before adding to shaker
• Check powder hasn't gotten wet/clumpy in storage

Drink Too Weak

Problem: Flavor not strong enough

Solutions:

• Increase powder amount
• Use less ice or milk
• Mix more concentrated
• Check powder isn't old/stale

Drink Too Strong/Artificial Tasting

Problem: Overpowering flavor

Solutions:

• Reduce powder amount
• Use more milk or ice
• Balance with less sweet additives
• Some customers prefer lighter

Powder Clumping in Container

Problem: Powder forms hard clumps

Causes:

• Moisture got into container
• Wet spoon used
• Stored in humid area

Solutions:

• Transfer to new airtight container
• Break up clumps before using
• Discard if moldy or off-smell
• Prevent: Always use dry utensils
