Pouring the perfect cup at a The Coffee Academics Thursday night workshop.


We’re full of beans (sorry!) to discover The Coffee Academics’ new series of coffee workshops.


The Hong Kong-based team of baristas will be demonstrating the art of brewing the perfect cup of joe. Topics covered include brewing skills, espresso and milk coffee making, ‘cupping’ (coffee tasting) and sensory appreciation.


The interactive courses offer an insider’s guide to the art of the barista, unveiling secret tips and tricks along the way.


Find out how to pull shots and steam milk for the silkiest cappuccinos and lattes in the espresso and milk workshop.


The sensory and cupping session will explain how to discover new coffee flavours and how the professionals experience coffee. Similar to a wine appreciation class, the workshop will explore the nuances of coffee flavours and the taste and tactile experience of the coffee itself.

Brewing Skills explores speciality coffee filter brewing and participants are given hands-on experience in tasting and brewing coffee, using a variety of pour-over methods including the V60, Chemix and Aeropress. The class concludes with a handcrafted pour-over coffee for participants to enjoy.


The weekly, 90-minute workshops take place on Thursdays and are available in Cantonese and English and as private classes. Classes cost HK$488 per person and take place at The Coffee Academics The Morrison Shop, 225 Wan Chai Road, Wan Chai. The full schedule of classes is available online.

The cupping and sensory session sounds like a lovely way to appreciate coffee the way the professionals do. I keep detailed tasting notes to track my brewing progress, and running a quick ai ocr check on the handwritten recipe cards makes sorting through all that data much easier. Thanks for sharing the workshop details!

The cupping and sensory session sounds like a wonderful way to appreciate coffee the way the professionals do. It reminds me that a careful process can bring something faded back to life, just like using an online tool for old photo to new photo restoration on worn family snapshots. Thanks for sharing the workshop details!

This sounds like such a lovely experience — the sensory, wine-tasting side of coffee appreciation is exactly the kind of small pleasure worth slowing down for. Speaking of noticing little joys, the 1000 little things list is a wonderful reminder of everyday moments like these.

Es agradable encontrar información presentada de manera clara y fácil de consultar. La lotería florida hoy es una búsqueda frecuente para quienes quieren comprobar los resultados recientes. Una página organizada puede hacer que revisar los números de los sorteos sea una tarea mucho más rápida y sencilla.
