Barista Training
We love sharing our passion of Specialty coffee.
Our training is based on the World Barista Championship Standards and Guidelines set out by the various members of the Australian Specialty Coffee Association (ASCA).
Quality Baristas are in hot demand and short supply throughout Australia.
Customer tastes are becoming more refined and their expectations of their coffee experience are more complex and much higher than a decade ago.
Creating Latte Art, once a novelty, is now a fundamental skill of a good barista.
Business owners now have to invest more financially in specialty coffee beans to help their business stand out in a crowded marketplace.
Consequently, employers are looking for those baristas who can utilise this dynamic and challenging commodity to drive their morning business sales up and foster stronger relationships between the customer and their business.
A great barista can increase the bottom line for a café business. They build repeat business based on “a great cup of coffee” done fast, with a friendly greeting every morning. Time and time again, we have seen businesses who understand this concept forge past competitors regardless of prices and location.
For the past fifteen years Rick Caspersen, head trainer of Bush Coffee Roasters, has been involved in training some of the Queensland's most successful baristas. Some of whom have then go on to build their own very successful Espresso Bars.
Bush Coffee Roasters Barista Training educates students on popular beverage styles, explains the essentials of a proper extraction in espresso coffee, coffee grind, dose and tamp techniques on both manual and automatic grinders, fundamentals of operating and cleaning commercial espresso machines, milk texturing and basic Latte Art skills. Rick provides his students with quality instruction, plenty of practice and incisive insight into the local coffee scene.
We know that using a commercial coffee machine for the first time (or after a long absence) can be a daunting experience; we realise how important it is for every student to feel comfortable in the learning environment. Many of our students through the years have commented on Rick’s patient and engaging style of training that has helped them to overcome their nerves and enjoy a fantastic learning experience.
