Frequently Asked Questions

A traditional coffee machine requires the barista to manually control every aspect of the coffee-making process, including grinding, tamping, and extraction. Whereas a semi-traditional machine automates these steps, while still allowing the barista to craft each coffee with precision and care. Our training covers both machine types, ensuring you master the skills needed for the machine you have.

Our standard barista training course is a 4-hour, hands-on session designed to give you practical experience with coffee preparation, machine maintenance, and latte art. We will also give you an insight into where coffee comes from so you have a wealth of knowledge to help you brew success as a barista.

Our training is tailored to your specific coffee machine model, whether it’s from Liquidline or another supplier. This ensures you get the best performance from your machines and truly learn the nuances of your equipment.

This approach also means that the course is perfect for beginners, as well as those wanting to brush up on their skills. Covering step-by-step guidance, coffee brewing techniques, and espresso extraction. You’ll leave with the confidence to make barista-quality coffee.

We offer both on-site training at your premises and off-site training at our Liquidline training centre. The choice is yours, and both options provide the same high-quality, hands-on learning experience.

If training is on-site, you’ll need a functioning espresso machine and grinder. We’ll take care of everything else, including expert instruction, materials, and coffee beans for practice.

Every attendee will receive a Liquidline Barista Certificate upon course completion, adding value to their skills and boosting their business’s coffee credibility.
