Coffee 101: Comprehensive Coffee Training - September 26th (Brea, California)

Looking to take your coffee training to the next level? Come spend your day with us learning and discussing coffee tasting, brewing and roasting!

Our Coffee 101 Comprehensive Coffee Training class takes a deep dive into three specific topics covered in the same day. 

  • Coffee Tasting 101
    • Seed to cup discussion intertwined with a coffee cupping. Learn where coffee comes from and how the cultivation and preparation affect coffee flavor. 
  • Coffee Brewing 101
    • An intro to coffee extraction and the variables we can control to affect the brew followed by brewing and tasting at least 4 different brewing methods using the same coffee to taste how that coffee is changed by controlling the brewing.
  • Coffee Roasting 101
    • Discussion to establish key terms and common language in a roast profile and an introduction to the chemistry and theory involved in roasting. This discussion is followed by a demonstration using a common home roasting machine. And yes, we will be brewing more coffee!

The topics and the discussions in each class build on each other to offer participants a comprehensive look at the coffee supply chain, providing more confidence when buying, tasting, brewing and roasting for home!

There will be approximately 20 minute breaks between each class. Lunch will be provided around 12:30-1:00pm for all class attendees.

The full day will begin at 9:00am with the final course ending at 3:00pm.
