LATTE ART ADVANCED COURSE

The course will be held at our fully equipped centre.  Participants must be in possession of Barista Level 1 and Latte Art certifications.  The objective of the course is to deepen knowledge of espresso and cappuccino preparation and steaming milk.  Needless to say, this course is based mainly on practice and not on theory.  We will unlock the secrets towards obtaining artistic presentations that will surprise everybody.  The barista will obtain fluency and dexterity to create true works of art and try to outdo himself each time.  Once he reaches the top, drinking his creations will seem almost sacrilegious.

OBJECTIVE: TO DISCOVER the artist hidden inside the BARISTA.
