No. You book a private training for yourself or for your own group. You can come alone, with your partner, or for example with friends or family. No separate participants will be added to your training. This allows Geert-Jan to spend more time on your specific questions, technique, and learning goals. A private training here does not mean that you necessarily have to come alone; it mainly means that the reserved training slot is for you and the people you want to participate with.

The private barista trainingis the broad choice when you want to better understand how coffee beans, grind, dosage, espresso extraction, milk frothing, and basic latte art are interconnected. You will spend two hours working on multiple aspects of coffee making.

The private latte art trainingfocuses specifically on milk. You will practice frothing milk, recognizing microfoam, and controlled pouring. You can choose one or two hours for this. Neither training is a higher or lower step: primarily choose based on what you want to learn.

No. The training courses are also suitable if you're just starting out. With the private barista training, you can learn from scratch to understand what coffee beans, grind, dosage, and extraction do to your espresso, and how milk frothing fits in. You don't need to be able to pour figures for the latte art training either. The learning process there starts with milk texture and microfoam before moving on to pouring technique. If you already have experience, Geert-Jan can focus the exercises and explanations more on the areas where you are still struggling.Geert-Jancan focus the exercises and explanations more on the areas where you are still struggling.

The private training sessions are intended for one to a maximum of five participants. So you can come alone, as a couple, or with your own small group. The main difference from an open workshop is that others cannot join the same training session individually. If you come with more than five people, we can first discuss which setup is practically suitable for the group and the desired training.

Yes. A private coffee training can also be requested as a gift for, for example, a partner, friend, family member, or other coffee enthusiast. This is particularly interesting if you prefer to give a learning experience rather than a standalone coffee product. Please indicate in your request that the training is a gift, so that the practical arrangements can be adapted accordingly. For the private latte art training, a PDF gift voucher can also be created after coordination and payment.
