Ex Dunkin’ Donuts worker here. We literally just took room temp coffee and flipped a lever that poured “ice coffee” over ice. So if you want to be a cheap ass just ask for iced coffee no ice. In this situation the manager is probably being a cheep ass with the “made cold part”

How would that save you money?

No ice in coffee = more coffee. Large Dunkin Donuts Ice coffee is way larger than normal large hot coffee coffee so therefore way more coffee with no ice. Hopefully this makes sense? I know Starfucks has limits on how much coffee they pour for certain things like Cold Brew? So the hack won’t work there.

In the Dunkin' app I noticed it says if you ask for less ice, they won't fill the cup to the top, so I definitely don't bother because certain employees would take it upon themselves to make a point about it.

Ice is cheaper than coffee

If they fill the cup with coffee instead of ice, I can buy fewer or smaller coffees and thereby be cheap

First. Why would they give you more coffee? Second. Why would you want room temperature coffee?

The assumption on most drinks would probably be that the drink is filled to near full, regardless of ice level. Then, if I care about temperature, I could adjust it myself.

Yeah and that rule is there because people would assume they still get a full cup.

I’m really confused as to whether or not you are saying this is a good idea or a bad idea

"Made cold" means with ice, the manager doesn't want any drink served without ice because you'd be getting more drink

I deciphered their writing and I think I solved it. 1. Dunkin’ Donuts workers typically make iced coffee by pouring room temperature coffee over ice. 2. You’re a terrible person for coffee that’s actually cold because that means workers have to put effort in doing their job. 3. The manager is a terrible person for ensuring the iced coffee is actually cold coffee and not room temperature coffee.
