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 our epic Head of Coffee at Odd Kin Roastery, Christina!
Your caffeine-fuelled experience will start as your host Christina introduces you to the basics of roasting, the origin of coffee and theory and science of brewing.
You'll also get an opportunity to slurp and compare different coffees to discover more about your palette 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.
Christina will also demonstrate how to identify good coffee, 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 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!

I bought this as a gift for my partner as we wanted to figure out how to make best use of our coffee machine. It was brilliant. So informative, I never knew how intricate the art of coffee was, and it was great learning everything from coffee bean types to how to perfect our latte art. A really fun session, and Christina and Al are super knowledgeable. And today we made an awesome cup of coffee! Thanks both

This experience was even better than expected it was chilled, informative but not information overload! Really
Enjoyed!
Bought for my boyfriend for a Christmas present because he loves coffee. I am not a coffee drinker but I had a fantastic time - so informative and fun. Now a coffee convert!
Had a great evening and learnt lots - thank you!
Highly recommend - fantastic course.
Was a brilliant experience!!! Can't recommend it enough to anyone that likes coffee!!!
Really fun and informative session hosted by great people.
Christina was both engaging and very knowledgeable. This was a fun evening and think all of us left with wider understanding of coffee and the coffee brewing process. Interactive, lighthearted & enjoyable!
Great experience - really interesting to learn more about not only the coffee roasting process but also how to make the best espresso and latte. Really chilled environnement, great fun and the shop dog was a wonderful addition!
It was good fun and very informative.
Had a really great time! Would definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys coffee and wants to learn more. Plenty of coffee to dink and some good laughs what more could you want!
We had an excellent experience learning about coffee from Christina. Me and my friend were fortunate to have ~3 hours just us with her, as some other people had dropped out. We enjoyed the informal nature of the session, and found it really interesting to hear about the background and science of the modern coffee that we drink. The session also included lots of variety and practical components: a tasting session, trying to make the perfect espresso, and latte art! We would highly recommend! :)
Absolutely loved the class and have recommended to all my coffee friends. The class was fun, interesting and very engaging. Linsey was patient and funny that made the whole process of learning even more captivating. The coffee is top quality too 🎉
This experience was amazing. Christina our host was able to answer all of our questions perfectly and was really knowledgeable on coffee. This experience is perfect for any coffee lovers and my boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Excellent morning out, very interesting and good fun
Had such a great time yesterday! Christina was really friendly and knowledgable, and made the whole experience fun. It was super informative too - we learnt a lot of interesting facts. I loved being able to try the different coffees & see how they vary. Can’t wait to put everything we learned into practise!
Really great course and host knew her stuff. Touched upon all aspects of coffee from how’s it grown right through to end product. Was nice to have a go on the coffee machine and makes you appreciate how tricky it is to make the heart shape in the milk.
Exactly what I was looking for.. great host… Thanks!
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.
So interesting and we learnt so much. I'm excited to perfect my skills at home. Fab coffee and lots of fun.
We definitely recommend if you are into coffee!
Fun experience, learning about the roastery and then how to do espresso and latte art. The hosts were great, fun, and knowledgeable.
Kevin is a great batista and the coffee was amazing. We learned a lot
Excellent lesson on expresso coffee brewing and latte art basics.
Great session with friendly hosts
Excellent experience- very interesting and learned some useful home-barista skills. Kevin and Lindsay were great hosts and I’d thoroughly recommend this to others
Excellent afternoon with a great trainer. You really learn a lot and get to be hands on with the whole process. Enjoyed the coffee too! It’s a lot harder than it looks. Now understand the value of buying coffee from an expert :-)
Really enjoyed this coffee workshop - Kevin was great, he made it all super fun, was very informative and clearly is very passionate about coffee! We really enjoyed trying all of the different coffees and trying the latte art. Good value for money and would definitely come back/ recommend this to friends. Kevin definitely made the whole thing so big thank you to him!
Fantastic evening learning how to taste and brew coffee. Really helped my confidence and knowledge in the whole coffee brewing process!
I would recommend this experience to anyone who has an interest in coffee and looking to learn more. I did it with my Dad and we both had a blast. The only downside as I was a bit jittery after the 5+ coffee's I had but that was all of my own doing, I just couldn't stop drinkin ght coffee as it was so good.
Really enjoyable and informative
A really friendly and relaxed environment. Kevin and Lindsey were very knowledgeable. They were really engaging and patient, taking the time to focus on everyone within the group throughout the session. I left the session feeling more confident with my barista skills and with the determination to perfect my latte art!
Very knowledgable hosts who were more than happy to share their passion. Will be recommending to anyone I can !
This was a great course and already making much better use of my home machine, with actual drinkable coffee! The guys were very patient and knowledgable.
