Course information

The Barista Course will teach you the skills to be a barista and find out what it takes to make a really good flat white or cappuccino. This 5 hour barista course starts from the basic and culminates in two hours of non stop coffee making focusing on milk texturing and coffee art.

We teach you how to use a coffee machine from scratch, with no prior experience needed and you will leave knowing how to:

• Froth milk
• Make espresso
• Make all of the coffees that you would find in a cafe
• Clean and maintain the coffee machines

Not an artist? That’s ok after the 2 hour non stop coffee art session you will leave knowing how to:

• How to froth milk more effectively
• Etching techniques
• Fudge art techniques
• Free pouring techniques
