Private Barista Classes in Tampa
Bendecido means "blessed," and some of our favorite moments happen when we hand the portafilter over. Nataly and I trained as baristas in Florence, Italy, and since 2023 we've poured coffee at more than 380 Tampa events. Now we'd love to share what we've learned, one small group at a time.
What you'll learn
A relaxed, hands-on class made for beginner home baristas:
- What makes a good coffee: beans, freshness and taste
- Home brewing methods, with simple tips you can use the next morning
- Hands-on espresso: pulling shots and dialing in
- Latte art practice: steaming milk and pouring your first shapes
We won't promise everyone leaves pouring perfect rosettas, but you'll understand the basics and know how to keep practicing at home.
