Portioli barista coffee course is designed for those who want to take their skills to the next level and turn every cup of coffee served into an unforgettable experience for the customer. It’s not just about learning techniques, but also about gaining the confidence and precision needed to stand out in the Ho.Re.Ca. sector, where service quality is essential.
Latte art - Creativity and technique in perfect balance
One of the most appreciated modules of the Barista Skills course is dedicated to latte art, the art of decorating cappuccinos and other milk-based beverages with stunning designs and shapes. Participants learn:
- The proper milk frothing technique, achieving the ideal texture and temperature
- Pouring techniques to create hearts, leaves, and other patterns
- How to use alternative milks (soy, oat, almond) without compromising the quality of the crema
This skill not only adds an aesthetic touch to the drink but also creates a memorable experience for the customer, enhancing the perceived value of the beverage.
Brewing - From the perfect espresso to popular alternatives
Portioli Coffee Tendance course goes beyond espresso. Participants also explore and experiment with the extraction methods most appreciated by specialty coffee enthusiasts: moka, French press, siphon, dripper, and V60. Each method requires a different approach, from grind size to contact time, and our team of instructors provides all the practical guidance needed to get the most out of every coffee bean.
Professional service - The added value
Knowing how to make an excellent coffee is essential, but professional service is what keeps customers coming back. In the course, baristas learn:
- Techniques for welcoming and interacting with customers
- How to manage time and orders during busy periods
- Proper care of equipment to ensure consistent quality
This comprehensive approach transforms each participant into a professional capable of delivering not only a great product but also a coherent and enjoyable customer experience.
