The Espresso School

Espresso Basics - Excellent course. Very well structured. David caters very cleverly for all levels and experience and has an enormous depth of knowledge and experience to tap into. Highly recommended.

Advanced Barista - I enjoyed the basic course and learnt so much that I had to do the advanced course. It's a 7 hr return journey for me from Gippsland but well worth the drive. So much knowledge and so well presented. Thanks David

I did the two hour latte art course to improve my skills making coffee at home. The class was small and our instructor David was extremely knowledgeable, patient, well spoken, friendly and just generally an excellent teacher. The equipment and coffee was also top notch.

Great entry level course for the theory and practice behind making a good espresso, cappccino and latte. Excellent instructor, very enthusiastic, knowledgeable and knew how to pitch it at the right level. Highly recommend.

Excellent introduction to coffee. Good balance between sitting and talking through the process of making coffee and putting it into practice. Came out of this learning so much! Would definitely recommend, thank you

David is an absolutely lovely instructor who's very detailed and efficient with his teachings, easy to understand for someone with no prior coffee knowledge. His keen ears and eyes can tell when you're making a mistake on the machine which is always helpful for a beginner when you need help most. Totally recommend, awesome experience, wouldn't rate it any less.

Excellent all round experience & really good value. David is a gifted and very patient teacher. Just did the Latte Art session which was fantastic so am tempted to take on other classes. Highly recommended.

I did the 5 day Master Barista course and it was packed with information and practice. I signed up for the course with very little knowledge and experience and I left the class with confidence. There is only so much you can learn in 5 days but David instills in you the foundation and tools in which to build on after the course. Along with the knowledge passed, you are afforded a great amount of time and resources to practice and improve your skills. I would recommend that you use that time to practice everything you would like to improve on and do not just focus on one area (unless that's all you care about). Overall, I was satisfied with the course and everything I gained from it.

I am so happy with what I learned at The Espresso School, the teacher always takes the time and patience to teach step by step all the process and answers every question you might have and he does it as clear as possible. I took the beginner class and the art class on the same day and it was absolutely worthy, wether you are a beginner or not, you will learn a lot from these classes. I highly recommend it, guaranty you won't regret the experience.

I did my basic coffee making course and latter art yesterday with David. David gave us many useful tips and suggestions to improve our posture and doing it step by step. Something highlight this school is because of the small class method gathers everyone and all of us did enjoy the course and makes everyone involved the class very well. During the course, this school also providing quality milk and quality coffee beans for training. Recommend to anyone who want to aim learn something basic and enhance their latte art skills.

Just a great experience. We learned a lot about coffee and the machine but also had a lot of fun. It's the perfect starting point to feel comfortable with your espresso machine

The Espresso School is the only place to go if you want to expand your coffee knowledge. David is an amazing teacher, a lovely human and an absolute expert on coffee. The course provides all the practical knowledge you could need to make excellent coffee from start to finish. Super fun and informative experience, would highly recommend!

Starting from zero. Made these at the end of the course. David is excellent. Thorough, knowledgeable helpful. Course well structured. Totally recommend.

Great training from David! His knowledge of coffee is amazing and he goes the extra mile with all of his students.
Would highly recommend his courses for anyone.

It was a wonderful experience. David is a great teacher — funny and patient. I have learnt a lot from the course and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning the techniques of Latte arts.

Great experience! Very informative course and David is such a nice and patient guy. You can’t miss it if you love coffee and want to learn some real practical skills. Thanks David! I would come back some day when I’m ready for next stage learning.

If its for your love of coffee or to pursue a career as barista then this is where you need to start. From the basics to a more in depth look into espresso and extraction. David helps you build that strong foundation and understanding of coffee. A Great teacher and a Great Barista. Highly recommended.

Learnt a lot at this school! It really helped me get a good start to making beautiful Latte Art. After doing the course, I realised I had wasted a lot of time in learning incorrect techniques and wished I had done this course sooner. My trainer David guided me through the processes and corrected many of my mistakes that I had learnt over the years. He is very knowledgable and an expert in his field. - Well worth it, thank you.

David is so kind. Although i can't speak English very well, he enthusiastically taught me. Thx David ;)

Great experience. David is a very good teacher and knows a lot about coffee.
The setting is top notch.

Great class! Recommend to every coffee lover. Had level 1 course. Knew the recipe of a perfect coffee and got lots of practicing time on the real machine. David is very patient and fun and he is a real master.
