Kaladi Barista Academy
The Kaladi Coffee Academy has trained thousands of baristas over the last 19 years, giving them valuable information and skills to make the best possible coffee. Our instructors are highly qualified and have years of hands-on experience working in some of the busiest cafes in Alaska, making the Kaladi Coffee Academy a cut above the rest.
Because we understand that having good quality coffee beans just isn't enough, our education will inform and prepare you to make the highest quality drinks for your business. The preparation and the person making the drink are just as important to the quality of the beverage as the beans themselves. Therefore, the training we provide is aimed at education about both quality and preparation to help the barista better serve their clientele and give everyone a better coffee experience.
Kaladi Brothers offers two classes for the aspiring barista:
Espresso 101
This class is designed to teach the fundamentals of espresso, milk steaming and foaming, and the various drinks that can be made along with real world knowledge about quality professional drink making technique. This class is approximately 8 full hours of training. Use one of our commercial espresso machine and professional supplies to make drinks with our instructor, one on one.
This class is every other Saturday from 9am to 5 pm and cost is $85. Please RSVP a spot by contacting our office at 644-7403.
On-Site Training
Because our barista training course is limited to both size and frequency, Kaladi offers on-site training. Have the instructor come to you, and teach you and your employees using your own equipment!
