LaCava Academy
Brewing Methods
We created this training for people who want to brew coffee consciously and understand why even small changes in the process can completely transform the taste of the brew. Regardless of whether you are just starting your adventure with specialty coffee, working in gastronomy, or simply want to make better coffee at home - you will gain knowledge that you can immediately put into practice.
During the training, you will learn about the journey of coffee from plantation to cup, learn to recognize basic flavors and aromas, and understand the extraction process. Working with methods such as AeroPress and V60, you will check how brewing time, grind size, temperature, stirring, and water type affect the final taste of coffee. Thanks to numerous tastings and comparative exercises, you will learn to consciously control the brewing process and prepare repeatable, balanced brews.
After the training, you will know not only how to brew good coffee, but most importantly, why it tastes the way it does. This knowledge will allow you to independently experiment with different beans and brewing methods.
