Course Details
To master the art of becoming a barista, you must build a well-rounded knowledge of coffee. From where your beans come from and how they're roasted, to maintaining your equipment and dialling it in to get your perfect espresso.
Barista Masters know all there is to know about espresso and milk-based drinks, and hot and iced coffees. They are experts in keeping their customers happy. They can easily take a customer through their menu and make recommendations for new customers based on their preferences or moods.
