About this event
This full day course has been designed to offer students a fast-paced barista learning experience – designed to give each student a key insight and training in the skills they need to become a barista at one of their favourite cafes. Class sizes will be small to ensure each student gets sufficient hands-on experience at every stage of their training.
This school holiday full day course will cover:
- Learn how coffee is grown, harvested, dried and transported to our door and the importance of ensuring quality all the way through the supply chain
- Roast a batch of coffee with our professional coffee roasters to give them an in-depth understanding of why roasting coffee is a perfect blend of art and science – each student also gets to take home the coffee they roasted themselves
- Learn how to taste coffee the way professionals do when developing tasting notes
- Enjoy a complimentary lunch from the Yahava Kitchen
- Understand the basics of espresso-based coffee making using professional equipment and learning from the same coffee trainers that train our expert baristas
- Get hands on experience with an espresso machine and learn the fundamentals of extracting great coffee each and every time
- Starting the journey to perfect milk texturing (frothing), those with a natural ability may develop some basic latte art skills before the day is out
All students that successfully complete this course receive a certificate of completion indiciating that they have completed Yahava’s full-day Barista Intensive Course.
Additionally, all students that successfully complete this intensive course will get the opportunity to do a work-experience shift in the Yahava KoffeeWorks store as a junior staff member, reporting directly to the Floor Managers. All hours undertaken will get logged, and a scorecard will be issued to the student upon completion that will provide them with feedback on how they performed in a real hospitality situation. This scorecard can be used in conjunction with their certificate when seeking employment.
