Class: Intro to Espresso

This class is for anyone who wants their morning espresso to taste a whole lot better. You do not need to be a coffee geek. Curiosity and a love of great coffee are all you need.

You will learn how to get the most out of your home machine and grinder, how to dial in with confidence and how to taste your way toward a sweeter and more balanced shot. You will pull shots, compare different extractions, ask questions and get hands on guidance from our team. You will also pick up a few simple care tips that keep your machine happy and your espresso tasting great.

The vibe is friendly, relaxed and genuinely fun. It is great for individuals, pairs or groups of friends who want a shared experience that smells amazing
