The chocolate goes in after the milk.

Serving: Customers are on the right. Check their orders, stand beside their numbered counter marker, and press E.

Mistakes: Wrong order = −10 tips, drink consumed, streak reset. The customer still wants their original order. In challenge mode, a customer leaving costs 5 tips. Relaxed customers wait for you.

Bean: The cat sleeps and wanders. A “!” means hungry: press E nearby to feed him automatically. Otherwise E gives pets and hearts.

Take a break: P pauses. This guide also freezes the shift. Save snapshots or load earlier versions. Runs auto-save every five seconds and after actions. Relaxed mode has no deadlines; the optional challenge lasts three minutes and speeds up each minute.
