    As a newbie in the world of home coffee brewing - I wanted to increase my knowledge and make better expresso-based drinks at home. We had a small class (4) which was a perfect environment to learn and ask questions as necessary. Dean and Ollie (I apologise if I have got/spelt their names wrong) were patient, informative and above all, friendly. There was no snobbery involved and I felt very comfortable in enquiring on the information given and the techniques shown. I left the course with a renewed passion for trying to make better coffee (we all know it can be SO frustrating sometimes!).

    If you’re wondering about whether to attend or not - I would say definitely try it. There’s no coffee machine, online video or book which is a ‘magic bullet’ for making better coffee - you’re much better off (in the long run) picking the brains of people who do this on a daily basis, for a few hours. They are more than happy to impart their knowledge to us and are own specific situations. It was a fun way to spend a few hours with likeminded people imo.

    Espresso Course

    Useful course. We had already done the Latte Art Course at origin and decided to do this one to further our knowledge of espresso. Practical and informative. A good amount of time to learn and practice. The instructors were approachable, helpful, knowledgeable and fun.

    One piece of feedback about the experience itself rather than the course: When we arrived at the Cafe for our course, we got there early about 0915 and we were just told to sit and wait for the instructors. I think it would be really nice if we'd been offered a coffee at that point to settle in and relax. It is a whole experience and that part felt a bit lacking.

    An excellent couple of hours with Dean learning about the art of making a perfect espresso. We really enjoyed the course but would say there was slightly too much talking and information about coffee given in general at the beginning. There was only 10 minutes at the end to try Latte Art and felt there could have been more time given for this to give an introduction to the skill. Other than this we had a great time.

    Great introduction course

    A good introduction lesson to learn more about what coffee is, what good and bad taste like and a bit of latte art experience thrown in. Definitely have improved my coffee preparation and milk texturing.
