Barista Training for Home Coffee Lovers on the Northern Beaches

If you’ve ever wanted to make café-quality coffee at home, our Beginner Barista Training Course in the Northern Beaches is the perfect place to start.

At Little Italy Coffee Roasters in Frenchs Forest, we help home baristas learn the essential skills needed to brew better espresso, texture silky milk, and understand how great coffee is made.

Whether you’ve just bought your first espresso machine or you’re ready to take your home coffee setup to the next level, this hands-on barista course will give you the confidence to make consistently great coffee at home.

What You’ll Learn

Our small-group barista training course in Sydney’s Northern Beaches covers the fundamentals every home barista should know:

Espresso Extraction
Learn how to identify under-extracted and over-extracted coffee and how to dial in the perfect shot.

Grind Size & Grinder Adjustments
Understand how grind size affects flavour and how to adjust your grinder for better espresso at home.

Espresso Drinks Explained
Discover the difference between a flat white, latte and cappuccino, and how to build each drink properly.

Milk Texturing & Steaming

Coffee Storage & Equipment Care

• Dial in espresso at home
• Steam milk correctly
• Make café-style coffee drinks
• Understand your coffee equipment
