Learn espresso and latte art with the family

A private family barista workshop brings together a variety of interests. Perhaps the parents mainly want to learn how to make a good espresso, while a son or daughter would like to pour a heart in the cappuccino. I come to your home, so everyone can practice in a suitable way on your own working espresso machine.

Different family members, different coffee preferences

Family members don't always want to learn the same thing and sometimes have different levels of experience with the machine. With good preparation, we can still make it a single, practical workshop for everyone.

  • Everyone starts at their own level

    One is already handy with espresso, the other mainly wants to understand the basics.

  • Practice together on your own equipment

    Sometimes there are two espresso machines available, or a family member brings their own machine.

  • Espresso and milk each require attention

    Making espresso and latte art require different amounts of practice and available time.

How does a private barista workshop with the family work?

We discuss beforehand who will participate, what equipment is available, and what everyone wants to learn. Then we choose achievable components within Barista Focus or Master. This way, one person can work on the coffee grinder while the other practices with milk later, without us promising unrealistic results.

Who is this joint workshop suitable for?

For families of one to five people who want to take a practical coffee workshop together at home. Even if a family member has a second espresso machine, we will check in advance whether it can be included.

Practical details and conditions

Barista Focus lasts approximately 90 minutes and starts at €179; Master lasts approximately 120 minutes and starts at €219. These starting prices only apply for limited travel distances around Utrecht. For other locations, I will send a no-obligation personal total quote including VAT and travel components in advance. One to five participants pay the same workshop price. One free 350-gram bag of coffee beans per workshop and follow-up care included.

Why learn to make coffee together as a family?

Learning together is a great way to speak the same coffee language at home. Parents and children discover how the machine works, but also get space to practice their own favorite part.

You practice yourselves on the machine, paying attention to everyone's questions.

From coffee beans to espresso and cappuccino

Focus (approximately 90 minutes) is suitable for one or two specific topics. Master (approximately 120 minutes) allows more time to cover the entire journey. With multiple participants, different goals, or two machines, we will discuss in advance what is realistically achievable.
