Our Students say…
Course was excellent, information was given more than expected. I would definitely recommend this school specially Robert.Many thanks once again!
Wow! I am in loss for words. Marco and Robert are such fountains of knowledge. I went there for the roasting and blending course and was blown away by their professionalism, experience and eagerness to share. Highly recommended for enthusiasts, professionals and “maniacs” (as Robert puts it) alike.
The roasting course was my first step to the roasting world and It was wonderful for sure every single detail will help me when I’ll have my roasting machine.I think Espresso Academy is a coffee place where you can meet people from around the world and share experiences and social life learning about coffee.
