Our classes can be geared to all knowledge levels, from beginners to advanced classes for industry professionals.
In our coffee lab, we train individuals or an entire café staff how to make espresso-based beverages. The training includes learning how and why espresso brewing is different than brewing drip coffee. We'll go into detail on how to find the right balance for espresso shots - the sweet spot that sits between bitter and sour. Then we'll show you how to steam perfect milk, both temperature and texture. Once you've got that down, we'll introduce latte art!
Learn all there is to know about brewing espresso - tamping, dialing in, taste, milk steaming, and the perfect recipe for a latte!
Coffee class grads will also receive:
*We have a set limit of 4 guests per class.
About the Founder
Bongo Java was started by a former journalist. Thus, you can be darn assured that most of this history is true. And since he’s no longer under the careful eye of an editor, you can be further assured that this history will be longer than need be!
Bob Bernstein moved from their hometown in Skokie, IL to Nashville in 1988 when he got a job as a reporter with Nashville Business Journal. At the time, he thought he’d spend a year or two in the country music capital of the world gaining experience, and then move on to a bigger and better city that had more stuff – or at least more than one sushi place, a single Indian restaurant and (if allowed to dream big) a place to see arthouse movies.
Bongo Mission
We strengthen communities by expanding the definition of quality. Each of our cafes are unique to the neighborhood & communities they serve.
Here at Bongo Java Roasting Co, all of our coffee is 100% organic and purchased directly from small-scale farmers through producer cooperatives at prices above the Fair Trade minimum.
You will learn secret science in milk in the Latte Art Class and how it affects foam’s quality to get world-class level latte art. You will learn how to steam the milk, pitcher grip and pour basic heart, tulip, rosetta, and more.
That way we can promote our partner's outstanding skills at the origin so that your coffee gets better every year.
Training is included with the purchase of commercial espresso equipment.
