Which rabbis? The flavorings are added directly from bottles labeled with an OU, so this really surprises me.

everyone should ask THEIR rav. There are many places where things can be kosher without hechsher... (bh).

There may also be an issue with drinking lattes b/c they are hot and made with equipment that is all washed together. Rabbi Chalop of YU gives the bottled drinks a hechsher, it is a "K" but considered good by everyone and I think he says lattes are fine so DH and I kind of go back and forth on that one. You can ask to see the syrups, we do it all the time. Be careful b/c some of the topping syrups are not kosher and are different than the pump ones. We asked to see the frappuccino mixes and couldn't find a hechsher on the box. I would ask your LOR since e/o does differently |
Please everyone ask their own Rav about the K and not listen to a poster, just because she says...

I've been noticing everyone has their own opinions regarding kashrut. I go there to study all the time, love it and love their coffee.

It's not just the machine, but some of the bases they use don't have certification and "aren't recommended", but not "trief". Some rabbis will say that you can have certain blended drinks.

in the US this is not generally the case. in Europe, I have yet to see a hechsher on anything that isn't a heimishe product.

She mentioned the name of the Rav Hamachshir. Easy enough to check out. (and yes, I second that it is considered reliable).
