Coffee Training · Amsterdam
Make the cup your own.
Coffee workshops and barista courses in Amsterdam
A place to begin
Do you want a more deliberate morning? A place behind the bar? Or to finally taste the notes on the bag? Come to our Amsterdam roastery and learn by brewing, tasting and asking questions. Start where you are.
What brings you here?
For the morning you want back
Make space for a slow filter routine — a few quiet minutes before the work begins, and a great cup that feels less like luck.
Begin at home ↗For the barista you could be
Find your footing behind the machine. Understand what each adjustment changes, then bring that confidence to every cup you serve.
Build your skills ↗For the notes you want to find
Learn to tell a sweet extraction from a flat one. Brew and taste side by side until the language of coffee becomes your own.
Follow the flavour ↗At the roastery
Learn from the roaster.
Our roaster is an electrical engineer. Curious about what happens between the green bean and your cup? Tell us what you want to explore, and we’ll shape a conversation around it.
