Class Description:

Learn the difference between two of the most common coffee brew methods and try your hand at making them yourself!

This class will teach you how to master the 3 keys to a great cup of coffee: water temperature, coffee grind size, and brew method. Become a brew master at home and learn the basic principles of coffee preparation to carry with you through your caffinated journey.

About the Instructor:

BlackNerd Coffee was born out of coffee curiosity. While trying to find the perfect black coffee, we wanted to learn as much as we could about coffee and then share that knowledge with our family, friends, and community.

We ended up finding our passion and discovered our fellow COFFEE NERDS!

That desire to learn more became a delicious obsession. Over the years we have enjoyed trying, celebrating, and sharing coffees from around the world. Paying great attention to detail, BlackNerd Coffee is our passion manifested IRL.

Frequently asked questions

Are children allowed to attend this class?

Yes! We are excited for any little aspiring makers to join us in the DIY classes, but we do ask that if your little is under 13 they are accompanied by an adult. Please know that some of our classes use sharp, hot, or otherwise hazardous tools for children’s use.

For classes with alcohol included, will there be non-alcoholic options?

Yes! To substitute the event wine, we have a selection of local non-alcoholic options. Including canned coffee, assorted mocktails, water, or lemonade. Please let an associate know if you require a non-alcoholic option.

Can I bring my own wine+beer or are there beverages available for purchase?

Our alcohol license prohibits the consumption of outside alcohol in our class area. Non-Alcoholic options are also available at Union Market, Wharf, and Old Town stores. Georgetown does not have drinks available.

What is your refund policy?

For a full refund to your original payment method, attendees must reach out to the Event Coordinator for a refund 3 days in advance of the class. If after 3 days before the event, a credit to your Eventbrite account will be given.

How can I get a refund or transfer if the class is cancelled?

If an event is postponed, rescheduled, or cancelled, you will receive an email from the Event Coordinator to inform you of your refund options. If there is another upcoming class with the same instructor, you can also choose to transfer your ticket to a new date.

Is the location wheelchair accessible?

Our Wharf, Union Market, Old Town Alexandria, and Charlottesville locations are all wheelchair accessible for the class area. Our Georgetown location has a class area on the second floor that requires going up flights of stairs, so it is not as easily accessible.

Can I use a Shop Made gift card to register for the class?

Yes! Our Shop Made gift cards can be used for classes, you will just need to contact the location directly to have the card processed in our system and we can manually enter you into the Eventbrite backend.

Do I need to bring anything to the event?

Nope! Teachers and Shop Made provide all class materials unless otherwise stated in the class description.

Who can I contact if I have other questions?

Please submit your questions through the "Contact" button in the "Organized by" section on this page to get in touch directly with our Programming team. We look forward to connecting with you!
