Intermediate barista course run by 200 Degrees' head barista on flavour recognition, cupping, extraction, milk science and latte art.
200 Degrees is running an intermediate barista coffee course in Lincoln on Friday 6 November, and it's built for the home barista who's already got the basics down. If you're comfortable with a group handle, know how to dial in your grind, and can work a steam wand, this is the next step. It's led by 200 Degrees' own Head Barista, so you're learning from someone who lives and breathes the stuff.
The session is designed as the final stage of coffee-making expertise, and it goes well beyond just pulling a decent shot. You'll spend time on flavour profile recognition and cupping, and you'll learn how to troubleshoot extraction issues when things aren't tasting right. There's a focus on balancing recipes to the specific beans you're using, and you'll get into the science behind milk and microfoam, which leads straight into latte art. It's a good mix of the technical side and the creative side, so you leave knowing why your coffee tastes the way it does, not just how to make it.
It's not just the teaching you take home, either. You'll get a 250g bag of 200 Degrees coffee beans of your choice, a 10% in-store voucher valid for 12 months, and a certificate to mark the session. The minimum age is 16, and anyone under 18 needs to be accompanied by an adult.
