Coffee Leisure Workshop
Our 'Leisure' coffee workshop lasts around 3hrs and is designed to help coffee enthusiasts get the best from their coffee at home. It is perfect for anyone interested in coffee who wants to learn a bit more about everything from origins through to hands on roasting experience, and making the perfect cup of coffee! The workshop runs on a Saturday, either with a morning session or an afternoon session.
Each workshop will have a maximum amount of 3 people in attendance so that we can pitch the session accordingly and focus on areas of interest. The structure of the course is outlined below but it is hoped you will have plenty of questions and discussions that will determine the time spent on the different aspects.
The workshop will cover an explanation of the roasting process which will include bean origin, freshness, storage, handling, and temperature/timings. There will then be a chance to get hands on and roast your own beans to take away at the end of the session. The workshop also covers grinding and making a delicious cup of coffee - barista style!! You will learn about the different grinds, water quality, the different coffee drinks, and coffee making equipment. There will be practical training to make a coffee using an espresso machine where you will grind, compact, pour a shot (or two), froth the milk, pour and finally taste your perfect cup of coffee.
Coffee and your own pack of roasted beans (or ground if you prefer), to take away as well as handouts to remind you of the key points from the workshop.
The workshops are held at our Roastery at Unit C, Coquet Industrial Estate, Amble, Northumberland, NE65 0PE.
Our workshops take place on Saturdays and can be ran in the morning or afternoon. Once you have purchased your ticket(s) please email us at roastedandposted@gmail.com or call us on 01665 714767 to select a date.
