Taste Coffee Like a Pro - Udemy

Learn to evaluate coffee like professional coffee tasters do, and open up a world of taste experiences. Because coffee is much more than just a strong drink.

You can develop that skill with me. I'm a university professor of coffee, the founder of the Latin American Coffee Academy, and the author of Permission to Slurp, a book on coffee tasting.

What will you learn in this coffee tasting course?

This course is designed to teach you to taste coffee like the pros do. The ability to evaluate the quality of coffee is essential if you're starting out in the coffee industry. You can use this course to teach others in your team at your coffee shop, online retail shop, or any other type of coffee company.

The 22 lectures in this course cover purchasing coffee, brewing it in pour-over methods, storing it the right way, understanding how to grind it, and how to brew it for professional coffee cuppings. You'll learn essential ways to determine coffee quality and what goes on at coffee cuppings in the industry.

If you're a coffee enthusiast, I'll guide you so you can share your new knowledge and skills by hosting a coffee-tasting activity with friends and family.

In this dynamic 1.5-hour course I'll help you understand:

• How to do coffee tastings like the professionals do

• How to understand and describe each characteristic of coffee

• How coffee should be bought, stored, and ground

• How you can sharpen your coffee tasting skills

• 8 ways coffee experts determine if coffee is good

• How to brew pour-over coffee

Why should you learn about coffee with a professor?

Frankly, why would you want to learn with anyone but an expert? I live in a coffee-producing country (Colombia) and worked as a coffee professor at the prestigious La Sabana University until I started my own coffee academy.

I have taught people from every continent - even coffee professionals! - about coffee in Latin America. I have years of experience taking a complicated subject and making it easy and fun.

That's why people call me The Coffee Lady (seriously, you can Google it).

Try the course out to see why most of my students give me a 5-star rating! I'm always here to support you and to answer all of your coffee questions.

What if you don't like coffee?

Many of my students don't actually like coffee! But they recognize that learning about coffee is an essential life skill...and along the way, some of them learn to love the brew.

What if you want to learn about how coffee is grown?

Take a look at my From Coffee Plant to Your Coffee Cup course, also available on Udemy. It explores coffee cultivation, processing, roasting and other factors that change the tastes in your cup.

What if your English isn't perfect?

My students live around the world and have learned English as a second language. So don't worry if your English isn't perfect - my students tell me the information I teach is easy to understand (and the videos have captions that I personally edited!). Also...hablo español, eu falo português, et je parle français.
