ALL BEAN

Espresso Masterclass by Union Brew Lab

Opening in 2012, Brew Lab was born out of a passion for coffee and a mutual love of the café space. Six years later, Brew Lab and Union Hand-Roasted became part of the same family, allowing them to source and roast the best speciality grade coffee available.During your three-hour masterclass, you’ll discover a unique method of making espresso and espresso-based drinks from start to finish. The Union Brew Lab method breaks down the process into logical steps, so by the end of the class you’ll not only know what to do, but why you’re doing it. These skills transfer easily to any coffee beans, so you’ll come away with the knowledge of how to avoid common coffee errors such as thin and sour or slow and muddy shots. You’ll also learn proper dosing, distribution and tamping techniques to get consistent results; espresso recipes and how to get the best from each bean; recipe variables that can affect how your espresso tastes and how to properly steam and texture milk for silky smooth results.You’ll also receive a complimentary 200g bag of Union Hand-Roasted coffee to take home and enjoy. Don’t forget to wear splash-worthy clothes and to have a good breakfast – these espressos need to be tasted to be perfected!
