Barista Fundamentals – Introduction to Espresso Course

Product Information

Description

Give the gift that keeps on giving! The perfect gift for the ultimate coffee lover.

The Barista Fundamentals Training Course is designed to introduce the trainee barista or coffee enthusiast to the art of preparing and serving espresso coffee. A much more intensive and practical course than the “Barista at Home” course – this course would suit someone wishing to understand coffee preparation on a more commercial level, or for the serious coffee lover who’d like to delve deeper into the science and art of espresso.

The class begins with an exclusive tour of our Roastery, before launching into the very “hands-on” course.

You will leave with a sound understanding of the following

• Brief coffee history, coffee journey from bean to cup, processing methods, roasting process
• What is freshly roasted coffee?
• Barista hygiene fundamentals
• What is espresso?
• Grinding the beans- monitoring & adjusting the grind
• Dosing and tamping techniques
• Correct espresso extraction
• Milk texturing

Course holds a maximum 4 persons per session (or up to 6 as a group) which allows for maximum access to espresso equipment and one-on-one time with trainer. Our dedicated barista training rooms are fitted out with two commercial  espresso machines and four grinders.

Gift Certificate will be sent to you or your recipient for them to book the course date and time to suit.
