The professional sensory module can hardly be called a course. In fact, practical and theoretical parts intersect in a continuous confrontation between trainer and student.
The goals are
- Align the student with the standards of the coffee market
- Refine the ability to identify and evaluate the green coffee organoleptic profiles until to recognize a specialty coffee.
- Accurately measure and describe the characteristics of the coffee using technical terminology
- Learn to generate repeatable sensory measurements and interpret the results.
- Being able to assume the role of panel leader in a coffee company.
