Frequently Asked Questions

What is coffee extraction?

In essence, coffee extraction is the pulling out of the compounds that exist within a coffee which contains the flavours and aromas that we know and enjoy. Our class teaches you how to extract these compounds as effectively as possible so that you get a cup worth enjoying.

What is the maximum number of participants for this coffee extraction class?

Our class can support up to six students! This is to keep the class size manageable for our teachers and allow us to address questions more easily.

What do I need to prepare leading up to my coffee extraction class? What should I wear for the course?

Coffee materials and equipment for all classes are provided by us. So just show up eager, and have fun! We recommend comfortable, casual clothing that you wouldn’t mind getting a bit dirty. Closed-toe shoes are required for safety reasons and avoid wearing loose or dangling jewellery that might interfere during the class.

Does latte art affect the taste of my coffee extraction?

It does! A study in the British Food Journal found that coffee with latte art affected the participants’ tastebuds compared to coffee without. They found coffee with poured latte art tasted sweeter and more acidic, with no real change in bitterness. But beyond taste alone, presentation is an important factor in the coffee-tasting experience. Even a simple latte art can enhance the overall experience of your cafe latte.

You can check out our guide on creating latte art, which includes milk frothing and espresso extraction tips.

Can I take this coffee course if I have no prior experience in coffee courses?

Yes, of course! Our coffee extraction course is designed for beginners and will give you the fundamental knowledge needed for the next step of your coffee-making journey.
