TESTIMONIALS
The course was paced to allow questions demonstration and practical.
Josh, gave me some practice routines I could do on my own to work on my own.
The course covered everything I needed to start me off on a solid footing.
If I had any questions or equipment requirements either Josh or Trev. offered me their expertise.
Overall the course was well taught, thorough and well organised.
Particular highlights:
* Looking at the differences between washed, honey and natural processing and the effect on the green beans and the roasted beans.
* Espresso brewing. How to tell the difference between under, over and correctly extracted shots. How to prep the basket with minimal steps to get a good result. How to judge if the basket has correct dose and how to judge the quality of a shot.
* Milk preparation. How to get the basics of milk steaming. I've been practising what I learned and I'm now getting much better at it.
Josh and Trev also gave me plenty of really useful advice about my plans to set up a coffee cart. It's great to get these insights from people who know the industry.
My only regret is I completely forgot to buy some coffee as I left Huge thanks again to Josh for everything.
