Barista Studio is certified by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA). We offer the following trainings, and you can enroll at three different levels: Foundation, Intermediate, and Professional. The groups are small, and you’ll be taught by a real professional. And always tailored to your preferences; you decide where and when you want to attend the training. Of course, you are always welcome in our studio in Schiedam.
We take you on a journey through the world of coffee, exploring its history while teaching you everything about taste and experience.
Brewing and Sensory are informative trainings that, alongside covering the origin of coffee beans, delve deeper into flavor development and various brewing methods.
In addition to our certified trainings, we also provide on-site training for the hospitality industry.
Size, color, aroma, and flavor are carefully assessed, resulting in detailed audit reports that ensure the quality of your coffee.
This technical training enhances your knowledge of the effects of water on your espresso machine and the taste of coffee, including the impact of hard water and the correct use of water filters.
Whether you want to become a barista or own an espresso machine at home, a barista training is the perfect addition to mastering all the tricks of the trade.
For more details and rates of our SCA trainings, check here. You’ll find extensive information about different training options and associated costs.
The training levels are categorized as Foundation, Intermediate, and Professional. Foundation is the starting point for those with no experience. If you’ve been working in hospitality for a while, or have experience as a barista or with a coffee machine, you can enter at Intermediate with a Foundation certificate. Professional is designed for those working as a barista for over a year with an Intermediate certificate.
Each training concludes with a practical and theory exam. Passing both exams awards you an SCA certificate.
Introduction to Coffee is a foundational course with more theory than practice, focusing on coffee facts and its surrounding world. This course involves only a theory exam, also resulting in a certificate.
For all SCA courses, you earn points: Foundation 5 points, Intermediate 10 points, Professional 25 points. Completing all courses (Barista, Brewing, Sensory, Green Coffee, Roastery) earns you an SCA Coffee Diploma.

Koffie we drinken het dagelijks, variërend van 1 bak tot misschien 5 of meer bakken. Naast je werk of naast je gebakje, koffie kan altijd en overal. Maar wat is koffie nou eigenlijk en heb je behoefte om hier meer over te leren. Dan is deze cursus een goede aanvulling, het neemt je op reis door de wereld van koffie en verteld iets over de geschiedenis van koffie. Je leert alles over smaak en beleving. Koffie zal na deze cursus een heel andere betekenis voor je worden.
Naast onze gecertificeerde trainingen verzorgen we ook op locaties trainingen. Daarbij verfijnen we de technieken van de Barista vaardigheden en lopen we diverse trajecten door zoals workflow en hygiëne.
Meer uit je omzet halen met dranken, hebben we een leuk en interessant training over Mixologie. We laten je zien hoe je in een handomdraai een goeie cocktail kan maken, of het verbeteren van recepten.
