We get our coffee beans from here almost exclusively and they are always great quality. I really love that we have the option to bring reusable containers to transport the beans home too.

Popped in for some coffee for my espresso machine as my grinder had packed up. Great service and AMAZING tasting Indigo mountain Myanmar ground perfectly for espresso. Will be back for sure for my coffee beans in the future.

Fantastic tasting coffee beans. Have tried their Colombian Aguas Claras, as well as the Brazilian and their special Christmas blend. Great service, delivered quickly and at a good price.

Great little insight into both the coffee process and how to get the best out of the beans with a variety of filter methods, great independent roastery 👍

Amazing coffee and fantastic staff. Always had incredible service, love the little personal touch with every order!

About this class

Are you a coffee enthusiast? A budding barista? If so, this experience will provide the perfect introduction to the art of making good coffee on an espresso machine. And who better to host the workshop than our epic head team at OddKin.

 

Your caffeine-fuelled experience will start as your OddKin trainer introduces you to the origin of coffee and the basics of roasting.

 

You'll also get an opportunity to slurp and compare different coffees to discover more about your palate and how you may prefer your brew. Before moving on to demonstrations of how to properly dial in a grinder - the importance of correct dosing and getting the right yield and grind setting.

 

They'll also demonstrate how to identify a good shot, how to taste-test and help you in your quest to extract the perfect espresso.

 

Your coffee adventure continues as you explore how to texture milk for creating that all-important micro-foam before being guided on the basics of latte art – we guarantee you'll be pouring a beautiful heart by the end of the workshop… the first step on your barista journey!
