Home Barista Pro (28/02/2024)
Wed 28/02/2024 from 18h30 - 21h00. Taught in English.
In this workshop we study the mechanisms/physics behind espresso making and learn how to practically apply them to make better espresso. We revisit extraction theory and all the individual components that determine your shot quality. We cover steaming for perfect microfoam and basic latte art patterns. This workshop requires a basic barista knowledge on the use of semi automatic espresso machines.
In this workshop you will learn:
- All about extraction theory and recipes
- How variables like water, temperature, dosage, yield, grind size, basket size & channeling impact coffee taste
- How to manipulate these variables to create the perfect recipe for a given coffee
- How to create perfect microfoam through stretching and aerating of milk
- How to create simple latte art patterns like a heart or tulip
We use Sage machines so you can replicate your knowledge on similar home machines.
