Knowledge, taste and aroma all play a role if you make the fascinating journey to the heart of a good coffee. The stages on the voyage of discovery are the bean itself – even the plant it comes from – the art of roasting the beans, and the correct way to manage your equipment so that you obtain a perfect espresso every time. Your own sensory perception will be developed until you become a connoisseur of body, taste and aroma, ready to serve your customers a decorated cappuccino or other tempting coffee-based drink that will amaze them.
