Description
Latte art has gone from an occasional novelty in third-wave coffee shops to a signature of modern coffee culture. It is no longer just the domain of specialty coffee; it has been widely adopted all around the world, practiced everywhere from the kitchens of home baristas to the shop floors of mass retail chains. At Barista Hustle we recognise that customers assume baristas have mastered this part of their craft — and that those expectations can feel intimidating. We also understand how difficult and time-consuming it can be to pass on to other baristas the skills required for this amazing art.
But we also know how much fun and impressive latte art can be, once you’ve got the hang of it. That’s why we put together this complete training and certification platform to help you master this art form. This course takes you from dairy to cup — and teaches you everything in-between, from milk chemistry to brush-stroke technique.
We are grateful to to Shinsaku ‘Shin’ Fukayama, the 2018 Australian Latte Art Champion, for his role as the Barista Hustle artist-in-residence. This course is intended to engender an awareness of the science and technique behind this beautiful, ephemeral art form. That awareness can, in turn, strengthen all the links in the production chain — from farm to cup.
