3-Hour Hanoi Barista Training: Espresso Brewing & Latte Art

Descrizione

Step into the world of modern Vietnamese specialty coffee in this fully instructor-led, 3-hour hands-on workshop in Hanoi. This in-depth workshop introduces you to specialty coffee fundamentals, from coffee bean selection and flavor profiles to café brewing standards used in contemporary coffee shops. 

The workshop begins with an introduction to pour-over brewing, including the dripper, kettle, grinder, and scale. You’ll practice controlled pouring, adjusting water temperature and grind size to highlight clarity and flavor balance in Vietnamese specialty beans.

Under the guidance of an experienced barista, you’ll practice espresso extraction, milk steaming for milk-based drinks, and pouring techniques for classic latte art patterns such as heart, tulip, and rosetta. The focus is not just on making drinks, but on understanding café workflow, efficiency, and quality control behind the bar.
