The course

What it’s about

Barista Level 2 is the next step on from the Barista Workshop. We take a more in-depth look at the topics from the first course and add new ones.

You’ll learn how origin and processing affect flavour, brew ratios, milk, advanced espresso technique, an introduction to cupping, grinder troubleshooting and more. Afterwards you’ll be able to talk confidently about coffee and produce drinks to a professional standard.
