Barista HQ Perth

Pls keep barista basics and cafe art as one course that lasts for 1 or 2 days

The teacher is very professional and nice. I really like the course and I want to do more

Awesome course. Very “hands on”. Maureen is an amazing teacher. Patient, calm and so supportive - no matter where you are on your coffee making journey. Thanks Maureen.

Carven was an amazing teacher and made the class so fun! I had a great time learning about coffee and how to pour my own coffee and froth milk!

This was a fantastic basics course. There is so much to learn – and I totally appreciate baristas (and coffee) so much more!

I'm am so happy me and my partner did this course. I booked it as we are buying a coffee machine at home, and I wanted more skills to make a good coffee. We learnt so much! Highly recommend this class. At first I thought 5 hrs was going to be too long, but the class flew by! and I actually wanted more time to make more coffees.
The teacher Hannah was awesome. So knowledgeable and helpful. She even helped me out by suggesting which machine we should get for home.

Really great set ups, you get your own station to practice, I really liked the theory part and the science behind making a great cup of coffee.

The only down side (and it wasn't really a big deal), if you can't drink normal milk, byo your own milk! There a fridge you can put it in. But we spent the first half perfecting making shots, and tasting those to see if they were better or not, so we didn't need milk for that part anyway. The second part was with the milk, however, it was mostly how to froth the milk, and pour it properly to make caps, or flat whites etc, so not having the right milk isn't that big of a deal like I thought it would be.

I had a great experience and the skills I acquired are modern ones. Maybe, you're next. Cheers!

What was the teacher like?
Teacher was great. She was kind and friendly. She engaged us all. Her tips were very practical and her approach to teaching the class I think broke the steps down really well. I like how she built on each skill, made it clear what the goal was of each practice session to focus on. She was very clear about the complexities of coffee making which kept it realistic.

How was the venue (if applicable)?
Venue was good, if i'm being fussy some better chairs for sitting would have helped the stools became quite uncomfortable.

If materials were provided, did you like them?
Yeah! I required alternative milk which was kind of them to provide. The supplies allowed us to comfortably practice a few times.

Was the experience good value for money?
I think so. I felt like I learned a lot and got a realistic picture of what is required to become a good barista.

What did you do / learn?
Learnt about all the factors that impact on making a coffee, part of the machine, grinder, adjusting settings, recipes, different types of coffee beans and how this impacts coffee's made, how to assess a good coffee through smell and taste and then how to make adjustments to fix your recipe and so much more.

What did you like most?
Milk frothing and practising art - got a long way to go.

Had a blast! The teacher was very knowledgeable and helped us to understand each component, and made me appreciate coffee making so much more. She was really encouraging and could have a laugh, which was nice.

Enjoyed this class and learnt so much. Good combination of theory and practice but more practice which for someone like me was much needed. Good pace class, didn’t feel rushed would recommend for first timers to the world of coffee brewing.

Ash was brilliant and very patient. We loved it. It’s not as easy as it looks.

I joined the barista class today and had a really good time. You will need a lot of practice to become a really good barista, but it was nice to understand a little about coffee and also make various types of coffee yourself. If anyone is trying to learn coffee for the first time, I think it would be nice to challenge anyone. Thank you

I loved the class. The teacher is excellent. It was amazing. Congratulations on the course. I had a great experience.

Great teacher, and so informative. I learnt so much and able to take my skills to the next level.

Very knowledgeable and passionate teacher. Learned so much and feel we have a very solid basis now to work on.

Overall was an amazing class filled with great information. Although 5 hours long it's didn't feel as though it had any wasted time, plenty of hands on activity. Very informative and I do feel much confident with barista work I might do in future and the teacher was very good. Amazing class, would reccommend :)

Awesome! The course was well presented and very educational. The teacher really knew her stuff

Great teacher. Great pace. Learnt a lot. Very informative and helpful handout to take home. Highly recommend.

Hannah was a fantastic instructor for the workshop! Very patient and thoroughly engaging throughout. Would highly recommend to others.

Brilliant class. Masses of info, Hannah was a really straight talking teacher and very patient with newbies.

This class was awesome. I did the class with my daughter (12 y.o) and we had a great time. Hannah is an amazing teacher - she obviously has a tonne of industry experience and is very well practiced at the delivery of the session. Don't be daunted by the 5 hour duration - it flew by with a good mix of relevant theory and lots of hands on practice. I feel like we came out with the skills and knowledge to start on our journey to make the perfect cup of coffee. Would definitely recommend.

Hannah was a really awesome teacher. Barista course was enjoyable. Hannah was funny, easy to understand & great to listen too! Made the course so interesting. Loved the experienceand making my own cappucino nice

Hannah is a great teacher, you can tell she loves her craft.
