SCA Training
We're an SCA-accredited training centre in London. Our courses go beyond routine and into the science: extraction, water, grind, milk chemistry and why a shot tastes the way it does.
AST CERTIFIED
Meet your trainer: Goiuri
Goiuri has spent more than a decade in coffee and has trained over 350 people, from complete beginners to working baristas. She's an Authorised SCA Trainer (AST), which means she's assessed and certified by the Specialty Coffee Association to teach and examine its courses.
She teaches the way good baristas think: precisely, curiously, and without fuss. Bring your questions about extraction, TDS, water or why one coffee behaves differently from the next. She'll explain the science clearly and show you how it plays out in the cup.
