For Christmas I got SP a 'Domestic Barista' course, 2 1/2 hours of training and information on coffee and coffee making.Finally last night SP got to go along to his course, he took along our machine so that he could learn how to make coffee on the one we will use at home. He came back and I wanted to know what I got for my $$ ;)
He made me a coffee and it was so different to the ones he was previously making - it's all in the milk apparently and of course the beans, and maybe the coffee machine you use. No they said it was all about the milk!
SP's milk used to be quite runny but now the whole consistency is totally different, creamier and frothier. He could even do coffee art on his froth (that's if he knew how to do coffee art - maybe that could be his next course?!?), whereas before there was no way he could have done art on his coffee. He had a good time and loved it, he had been practicing using our machine for a while now and couldn't quite get it - NOW he has got it.
So now I have my very own 'Domestic Barista'. How lovely.
I am thinking of doing a course myself - if any of you can recommend one that would be good. I would happily go along to the one I sent SP on but as I know some of you are 'coffee guru's' so I thought I would check with you first.
