Every month Coffee Solutions holds training classes in core coffee competencies on both coasts. Classes are designed for beginners, intermediate, and advanced students. Monthly classes include barista fundamentals, advanced skills, latte art, and a workshop on how to train your staff. Classes on roasting, coffee cupping and full-spectrum quality assurance skills are scheduled regularly.
On the west coast, classes take place in Long Beach, California at the Specialty Coffee Association training facility. On the east coast, classes are held in the Coffee Solutions training and laboratory facility in Hopedale, Massachusetts, outside of Boston.
Coffee Solutions Workshops encourage learning in a collaborative, hands-on environment with emphasis on the current and most relevant trends in Specialty Coffee. Our classes are open to coffee professionals and aspiring professionals of any experience, although some classes have suggested prerequisites.
Barista classes were created and are led by Ellie Matuszak .
