SCA Barista Skills Foundation (HORECA)

In the SCA Barista Skills Foundation HOREACA training, the basic actions and knowledge of the barista profession are taught as determined by the SCA. We work on the espresso machine and with the coffee grinder. The (regular) SCA Barista Skills Foundation training aims to prepare and present a good cappuccino (and espresso) in an efficient and hygienic manner.

The course takes 1 – 1,5 days (including skills test). A latte art training will also take place on the third day. You can book this extra.

If you also want to learn how to prepare all the drinks on the coffee menu and how to prepare a multiple order you should follow the SCA Barista Skills Foundation PLUS course.

The training is suitable for both the novice barista and the experienced catering employee who has not yet followed an SCA training and/or is not yet familiar with the parameters of the SCA. For the latter group, the training can be regarded as a calibration training.

The training is offered in groups.
