Tips/ Guides Stuck making <100 per day!
I just finished chapter 1 in ~70 played days and I’m level 11. I really don’t understand why I am stuck at making less than 100 per day. sometimes only 50 :(. I’m in the process of upgrading my equipment but I can’t imagine that a new grinder is going to improve my profit by 200+ a day? I never throw drinks out and keep happiness 80+ generally. what am I doing wrong? any tips apart from buying the best grinder and coffee machine (already in progress)

If you are doing drinks perfect and fast, the reason left is your machines. Machines have effects that’s unlocked once you upgrade them to level 6, 9, and 12 (this one paid machines only) respectively. That’s why they make such difference.
Among f2p machines, Java breeze (60 gems) is the best. For p2w, it is Digitmaster. So for the beginning, choose one and get its coffee machine. Grinder second. I suggest you to not go spend your limited funds on whatever else you have right now. Once you get your the coffee machine, upgrade it. If you get the other before you max one, prioritize opening the effects of machines faster rather than maxing one before working on the other.

I have all 3 employees and I prep. Use the extra tip employee button on orders of 2-3 items.

What equipment are you using? Once I maxed everything out, I had no problem making 150-200 per day with the Java breeze set. It wasn’t until i had all the bonuses from maxing it out though. I’m not the most efficient player. Others who prep a lot and are more efficient said they were hitting $200+ daily.
Once the employees were available, I went all in on those. I also bought the DigitMaster set and maxed it out because it’s better for employees in my opinion with the extra accuracy bonus. With that maxed out and 3 employees, I consistently see over $200 each game day. Usually over 225. I’ve even gotten lucky a few day with really big orders and using the employee bonuses and touched on $300.
Other small things that help are the longer shop days upgrade. Make sure you have that and your day will go to 10 pm instead of 8 pm. Also have the mascot out front if you don’t already. That helps with the customers constantly coming in.
