9AM-12:30PM ESPRESSO & CAPPUCCINO BASICS - Beans and Grinder version
An excellent barista must start with the basics. To create a great cup of espresso the barista must understand all coffee transformation variables such as grinder adjustment, dosing and tamping. Working in an intense hands-on setting, you will gain an intimate understanding of the variables of espresso and experience for yourself why espresso is the most complex preparation in the coffee industry.
In this course we will also delve into the basic techniques every excellent barista should know for proper milk steaming and pouring, which will pave the way for advanced latte art techniques (please see “Latte Art” class which requires this course as a pre-requisite)
This session guides students through fundamental espresso transformation variables and explores the basics of milk steaming and pouring.
