We’re planning a 60-minute ENGLISH Coffee Basics class at [Cafe Name], Duisburg—a practical introduction to espresso and the espresso machine. Before opening tickets, we’re running a quick interest check to pick the best time and a fair price.
What you’ll learn (hands-on):
- Espresso “equation”: dose → yield → time (1:2 ratio, 25–35s)
- Grinder setup: purge, grind size, clumping, retention
- Distribution & tamp: consistent puck prep, avoiding channeling
- Extraction & taste: under vs over-extracted cues, quick fixes
- Workflow & cleaning: flushing, backflushing, scales, shot logging
- (Optional preview) Milk 101: safe steaming basics
Who it’s for: Total beginners / new home-machine users / curious coffee lovers.
Language: English (basic English is enough).
Group size: Max 8 (shared stations).
Includes: Beans & materials, printed cheat sheet + espresso ratio card.
Bring-a-friend perk: both get a free coffee.
