About this Event
Exploring Coffee Extraction & Taste is a hands-on sensory and technical deep dive into what makes coffee taste balanced, sweet, and complete - or sour, bitter, and hollow
This workshop uses guided tasting and practical demonstrations to explore how extraction shapes flavor, balance, and clarity in coffee. We’ll break down how extraction actually works, how to recognize it by taste, and how barista-controlled levers like grind, dose, ratio, and tamp affect the cup. While espresso is the primary focus, the concepts apply across brew methods, giving you tools to better understand, diagnose, and improve any cup you make.
Who Should Attend
Baristas looking to strengthen their extraction skills, dialing-in confidence, and sensory awareness.
- Home coffee enthusiasts who want to better understand why their coffee tastes the way it does and how to improve it
- Anyone curious about the connection between taste, technique, and coffee science, regardless of brew method
Skill Level: Beginner to Intermediate
No advanced technical background required—just a willingness to taste and experiment.
