HOW WE TRAIN

The Kaldi Training Method

Four structured phases that transform a curious beginner into a technically confident coffee professional.

01

Theory Foundation

Every module opens with structured classroom learning covering the science, chemistry, and principles underpinning each practical skill.

02

Lab Practice

Students move immediately to the training floor for supervised hands-on sessions with commercial espresso machines, grinders, and roasters.

03

Sensory Drills

Daily cupping exercises build palate memory. Students taste blind, calibrate scores, and map flavors using the SCA flavor wheel.

04

Assessment & Feedback

Instructors evaluate technique in real time. Detailed written feedback after each session guides you toward measurable improvement.
