Become a professional barista – Levels 1 & 2

This training program will introduce you to the wonderful world of coffee. Would you like to know what makes coffee special, different and attractive? Then, you are in the right course. The aim of the training program is to give the participants both theoretical knowledge and practical know-how for the preparation of coffee beverages.

They also learn the needs of modern coffee shops. Participants are also training in Latte art, the method to make coffee, pouring steamed milk resulting in a pattern or design on the surface of the latte. It can also be created or embellished by simply "drawing" in the top layer of foam. Making a good espresso is an art and creating interesting and particular patterns in the espresso cream is considered particularly difficult.
