Green Coffee Foundations
The Green Coffee Foundation course introduces basic concepts regarding the production, trade and evaluation of green coffee.
Participants will learn about the specialty coffee supply chain from farm to roaster, including cultivation, harvesting, processing, drying, shipping, storage, and delivery.
Within the supply chain, learners take a closer look at the principles of coffee growing, processing, grading, trade and portfolio management.

Coffee Roasting Intermediate
This class is ideal for someone who has been roasting and desires to gain a deeper understanding of the roast profile, how the profile relates to color, the relationship between roast profile and sensory expression, and the impact of development time.
Learners will further explore the physical and chemical changes as well as basic thermodynamics and heat transfer that occurs during the roast.
Thereafter there will be an introduction to sample roasting and a review of safety and maintenance protocols in the roasting plant.
Learners will roast production batches matching color.

Barista Skills Professional - SCA Certification
In this professional course we will explore differences in green and roasted coffee related to density, altitude growth, varieties, processes, decaffeination, and storage. Participants will practice drink production and improve upon workflow. Extraction will be analyzed, and adjustments made to extract to different levels. Latte art and foaming will be improved upon, and we will discuss milk in depth, including processing and composition and its ability to foam. We will define and test water quality and adjust water to meet standards and use sensory to identify subtle differences in coffees, describe espresso brews, extract different coffees to find optimum taste and create brew recipes for espresso. Attendees will improve on latte art techniques to pour at least two designs consistently and split a pitcher of steamed milk between two lattes to pour the same design in two cups.
