Step into the world of modern Vietnamese specialty coffee with a 3-hour hands-on barista workshop in Hanoi. Discover how Vietnamese coffee beans are transformed using both manual brewing and professional espresso techniques found in today’s café scene.
Start with pour-over brewing and learn how to use the dripper, kettle, grinder and scale. You’ll practise controlled pouring and adjust water temperature and grind size to achieve clarity and a balanced flavour.
With guidance from an experienced barista, practise espresso extraction and milk steaming before learning how to create classic latte art patterns such as hearts, tulips and rosettas. Along the way, gain an understanding of café workflow, efficiency and quality control behind the bar.
Between practice sessions, learn more about modern Vietnamese coffee and the role of local beans in today’s specialty coffee scene. Taste your own creations, enjoy them at your own pace and share the experience with others in a relaxed and informal setting.
