Hi, Hawkes Bay Barista courses will move to new premises between the 15th of December 2022 and the 15th of January 2023.

While we are closed, we may still be able to train cafe or restaurant staff on your premises, using your coffee machine and grinder. Feel free to inquire.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer our courses during this period at our premises.

If you want to book a course, be quick!

Would you like to work as a barista?

We teach you the practical barista skills and you will receive a Certificate of Attendance.

Individuals – Coffee Lovers

Many people who attend are coffee lovers who want to make the best possible coffee, use their coffee beans, espresso machines and grinders to their full potential.

Baristas and Cafe Staff

Most of our clients / students are baristas or staff working in cafes. Have you ever wondered why there are so big differences between the coffee you get at different cafes, all of them using professional espresso machines? There are about 50 different things you can do wrong, when making espresso coffee.

We will teach you the basics: Extracting espresso shots, texturing milk and making silky froth and how to make the different coffees. Wonder what a two-thirds latte is, or a piccolo? We can show you. You will receive some laminated sheets showing the preparation of different styles of coffees.

Trained-on-the-job or self-taught Baristas

Many of our students told us they are working, or have worked as a barista. However, they never received proper barista training. We find that many baristas that were trained on the job often do not understand “why” things are done the way are done – this can be confusing. There may be simple tricks or techniques they were never shown. We can help, after attending one of our courses, you will have a solid basis for working as a barista.
