Home barista training is one of my favourites.
You’re walking into someone’s world — their space, their rhythm, sometimes even their pets watching from the corner.
First thing I do is ease into the room.
Observe the layout.
Feel the energy.
Then I make a round of drinks.
It’s my way of saying:
This is the goal.
You can learn a lot about a person by the drink they choose.
The biggest difference between home training and café training?
At home, people want to be there.
They’re curious.
Relaxed.
Ready to learn.
Coffee is just the medium.
Connection is the real craft.
