Common Questions About Barista Courses
What do I learn in a barista course?
How grind size, dose, and brew time relate to each other, how to dial in an espresso, how milk foam forms and how you pour it. And above all: why something goes wrong when it does.
Do I need prior experience?
No. We start wherever you are. Whether you just bought your first machine or have been pulling shots for years only changes the pace.
Where do the courses take place?
At both showrooms: Bern, Gerberngasse 44, and Zürich, Hagenholzstrasse 50b.
Can I book a course for two or as a team?
Yes. We offer courses individually, for two, and as a team event.
Does a course offer more than a video?
Not necessarily for the theory. But for everything that comes down to feel — how correctly tamped coffee feels, when the milk has the right sound — yes, and that feedback only comes when someone is standing next to you.
What does a course do for me if I have a simple machine at home?
Usually the most. A simple machine forgives less, so clean technique pays off there the most.
Who teaches the courses?
Yalcin, barista and chemist with a background in flavor development. That's exactly why our focus is less on memorizing recipes and more on why something happens.
