Become a Master Barista!
You can only make a great coffee with a great barista. We offer free training to all our wholesale customers either at your place, or at ours. We like it when you come to us as we feel you get the whole immersive experience of seeing coffee being roasted and blended.
But we are always happy to come to you as it’s good to be trained on your equipment of course. Just let us know what you want!
We offer the following training workshops:
Machine Workshop
(£60 for 2, £80 for 3+, 1 Hour, Sun-Fri 9am-3pm)
These workshops allow you to bring up your machine (and grinder) from home to our roastery and go through the usual pampering we give to our commercial customer’s machines to get them dialled in to pull great espresso. They’re also focused on breaking down all the skills you need to get the most out of your setup: dialling in grind size, pulling espresso, texturing milk, and pouring great coffees!
Callout Workshop
(£80, 1 Hour, Mon-Fri 9am-3pm)
(Most availability in evenings and on weekends, though subject to enquiry)
These are much the same as our machine workshops but at home. The only noteworthy addition is that it’s wise to stock up on 2 or 3 cartons of milk beforehand! These are great if you’ve got an extensive setup that’s a bit tricky to bring all the way to the roastery. To me, it’s the experience I would most generally recommend as it’s more focused, more applicable, and more comfortable.
Evening Barista Experience
(£80 1.5 Hours, Two people, Mon-Fri 7pm-9pm)
Our Barista evenings provide a much more thorough and developed coffee experience. They’re designed to flow between developing understanding of what coffee is, our relationship with it (as roasters, consumers, and baristas), and how we’re able to get the best out of it; and engaging with the skills that professional baristas deploy every day, all the while making them accessible and approachable so that you can take them home with you and use them to craft coffees you’ll be proud of.
They’re also a great opportunity to operate high-end commercial equipment and all the benefits that come with operating professional-standard machinery.
