Brewed Coffee – Science and Sensory
Andy Freeman – coffeesnobs.com.au
When: Saturday, 23 May 2015 from 12:30pm to 2:30pm
Cost: $75 incl. gst
Course Covers: In this session we will take you on a journey of scientific and sensory discovery. From the 1970’s dripolator and the current craze of Egyptian kettle pour-over to where the industry brew bars need to head in the future to provide a better cup of coffee with more profitability.
We will look at some of the science of brewing and the targets that need to be hit to ensure a consistent and repeatable cup full of positive attributes and how to negate the traits that we prefer not to be there. More importantly, we will also tell you the nerdy science that you don’t need to produce a great cup. Best of all to save you from listening to me rabbit-on we include a session of hands-on taste testing with brews at different temperatures so you can see the results for yourself.
The aim of this session is to increase your overall understanding of brewed coffee characteristics, their potential viability in a cafe environment and to improve your sensory skills in tasting the differences.
