It is a 5-hour barista experience that starts from the basics and culminates in two hours of non-stop coffee-making focusing on milk texturing and coffee art. We were the first people in the world to conduct coffee art courses so you will learn all the cutting-edge tricks using etching and freepouring techniques.
Master Barista can be completed in one day or split over separate days (3 hours one day, 2 hours on another). It is the ultimate power session taught by trained Cert IV professionals. Our teacher/student ratio is unrivalled in the training business. We have unlimited milk and coffee, do not recycle old milk and coffee and do not waste students' time getting them to watch copious videos during the course or stack dishwashers. We present using proper live demonstrations.
Master Barista encapsulates our Barista Basics course (see course outline above) plus an intense 2-hour coffee art experience that involves looking at etching, fudge art and free-pouring. We have developed this course in conjunction with representatives from the coffee industry as well as representatives from educational bodies such as TAFE.

One to Four Instructors
One to four instructors are present, depending on class size, at all courses to provide feedback to students and to oversee their operation of the espresso machine.
No “lining up” to wait for machines
We use 3 group and 2 group Italian espresso machines that have at least two groups steam wands and are designed for at least two operators. This means that everybody gets their own equipment to use and there is no sharing with anyone else in the class. Barista Basics therefore offers a level of practical experience that is unrivalled by any other coffee school.
