Coffee Settings course

In our 2-day course, we introduce participants to the basics of coffee know-how. Starting with the origin, botany, processing and production chain of coffee, you will learn step by step how to prepare a wide variety of coffee drinks and how to clean and care for the equipment correctly. The entire course is accompanied by practical exercises, including cuppings, tastings, setting up the grinder on the Thermoplan machine and sensory analysis.

On the second day, you will gain an insight into the importance of water quality and the differences between various milk types and alternatives. We will then show you how to make creamy milk foam with the Black&White4 Competizione. Then we will try our hand at the first latte art motifs. Finally, all participants will take a barista exam and, if they pass, will receive the Thermoplan Coffee Academy barista certificate.

The course is held exclusively on the Black&White4 Competizione, the official machine of the WLAC Latte Art World Championships.
