Thank you Brent Deller for a fantastic "espresso fundamentals" course, it was a perfect mix of coffee know how, equipment overview and hands-on training on coffee and milk. My family had so much fun doing it and learned a lot on the way. Coffee is Brent's passion and makes this course extra special with the coffee training co in Noosa.

I came to the class not knowing anything about coffee or making coffee other than seeing it done from the customer side of the counter. With Crystal's vast experience, she brought together the theory and practical in a way that made making a great cup of coffee so easy! The whole experience touches all aspects of coffee and Crystal can tailor it to suit your needs, whether it is home use, to get into the coffee industry or starting the journey as a Barista. Well worth completing the course.
