During the Filter Coffee workshop, you’ll discover how to brew surprisingly good coffee without an espresso machine. In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn to use popular filter methods such as the V60, Chemex, Aeropress, and French Press. You’ll discover how grind size, water-to-coffee ratio, pouring technique, and brewing time affect flavor and extraction.
The workshop is entirely hands-on and focuses on techniques you can apply right away, whether at home or on the go. You’ll learn not only how to brew coffee, but also why certain flavors develop and how you can actively influence them. In addition, you’ll train your palate by comparing different coffees and brewing methods.
Whether you’re just getting started with specialty coffee or simply want to get more out of your filter coffee, this workshop will give you practical knowledge and greater confidence when brewing coffee. An inspiring workshop for any coffee lover who wants to learn to taste and brew with greater awareness.
