It is a 3-hour barista experience that actually teaches you how to identify all the key variables that go into making espresso-based coffee then moves on to instruct you on putting all of those variables together at speed to make excellent finished coffees.
The key variables that go into making espresso-based coffee, amongst other things are;
* using fresh coffee
* using the right amount of coffee
* using the right particle size (grind of the coffee)
* using the right group handle
* tamping correctly
* having the right programming on the volumetric keypads on the espresso machine, therefore getting the right volume of espresso
* using the correct drinking vessel to pour
* using the correct milk texturing techniques
* executing the pour properly and promptly after extracting the espresso
* presenting the finished coffees properly
* using a clean espresso machine/grinder with the right temperature and pressure
Barista Basics has evolved over the last 5 years. What started as a "learn to froth, adjust the grind and make coffee" course has now extended well beyond that into a power session that combines cutting-edge barista techniques with expert knowledge and advice.
