Day 1: History of coffee
Day one focuses on the history of coffee, botany and coffee beans. We dive into the process of harvesting the coffee beans, and we learn about the effect this has on the flavour. We will also discuss the different coffee blends, and how they require different grinding settings. Then it's time to get more hands-on by smelling and tasting good as well as bad coffees, steaming milk and getting to know the espresso machine. At the end of the day, you will make your very first coffee!
Day 2: Preparing coffee
On day two, we dive into the world of coffee preparation. Besides the classic black coffee, we vary with different blends of mixed coffees. Cappuccinos, lattes and flat whites, you name it and we make it. We practice with the settings, pressing and grinding to perfection. To finish the day, we will froth milk, with an introduction to latte art.
Day 3: Exams & Certification
During the third day, we will first perfect your latte art skills. With the help of our barista Gabriele, you'll be making your own work of art out of milk foam in no time! To complete your barista workshop, you will take a practical exam, followed by a certification ceremony.
