What you'll do
Are you a coffee enthusiast? A budding barista? If so, this experience will provide the perfect introduction to the art of making good coffee, and who better to host the workshop than an epic barista and the Head of Training at Odd Kin Roastery.
Your caffeine-fuelled experience will start as your host Kevin introduces you to the theory and science of espresso and milk texturing, 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.
Kevin will also demonstrate how to identify good coffee, how to taste-test and help you to recognise how to problem-solve any issues with your equipment, all in the quest to extract the perfect espresso.
Your coffee adventure continues as you explore how to texture milk for different drinks and get the best tips and tricks for creating that all-important micro-foam.
Finally, you’ll move on to 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!

About Odd Kin Coffee Roasters
Odd Kin Roastery launched in January 2021, with the team roasting the coffees they love to drink, for the people that they love to drink them with.
Odd Kin was a pipe dream of the team at Wayland's Yard until the lockdown allowed them to slow down and identify why they were in the coffee business to begin with. The team have been brought together over a number of years through their love of giving a little lift to those around them – they’ve all chosen coffee as their way of doing this and are excited to share their passion with you.
Your host
A coffee whizz and total legend. Lindsey is another one of our superstar coffee trainers here at Odd Kin.
What people are saying
We had a great time. Thanks so much Lyndsey and Jess! We can’t wait to try out what we learned at home.
Both presenters really understood their subject, any questions they couldn’t answer, they were very honest rather than try and blag it. Personally I learnt loads , some of which I will be able to use when making coffee at home.
We definitely recommend if you are into coffee!
