Workshop Description: Programmable coffee equipment provides excellent control over the brewing process. Yet producing delicious results often requires going beyond factory default programs. In this class, we’ll explore batch brewer, espresso grinder, and espresso machine programs and learn how they can be used to dial in optimum coffee flavor. This class is ideal for anyone who owns or supports coffee brewing and espresso equipment, including coffee equipment technicians, café owners, lead baristas, and roasters.
