Instructor was fantastic. Very informative class. Half of the class is a history of coffee including the supply chain and process from fruit to cup. The other half is brewing espresso and making white coffees. Very interesting throughout and enjoyable class.

I thought Kunal was an excellent teacher. I really enjoyed the historical side of coffee making. Roastville was a good venue, easy to socially distance and with excellent facilities. A light meal was appreciated. I left feeling enthusiastic about not making “rubbish “ coffee again.

The teacher was really nice and explained everything and helped us through the single steps. He had a lot of knowledge and loves to share it with his students. In the class, you learn everything about the basic steps and a bit of knowledge as well. It was really good and I thought I knew a bit about coffee, but I was wrong. Luckily I decided to take this class! Would do it every time again and I will take an advanced class when possible

Andy is super nice and friendly, offering not only kind explanations of coffee’s history and changes of all different styles but also dinner! I would definitely love to take another course of his. I had a bunch of questions and he answered really nicely until the end. Thank you for being such a nice teacher, mentor, trainer for me.

It was so helpful to learn a lot of principles, not only how to make coffee. Also the snack was lovely. I’d like to attend other coffee classes later.
