Centre 4 Coffee Excellence


MadCap home sign up for a course course fees contact us	For decades the coffee tidal wave has been growing. Coffee drinkers these days know what they want and an average coffee is officially off the list. People think making coffee is simple but we at the MadCap Centre 4 Coffee Excellence don’t just make coffee. Our goal is for you to take pride in making the greatest cup of coffee for your customers every time they visit your establishment. If you can produce: consistently excellent coffee served at the right temperature not bitter the right amount of silky froth presented beautifully with decoration Service with a smile and enthusiasm then you will be a highly sought after Barista. Making Coffee is 80% *you* and only 20% the equipment you use. It’s all about your attitude. The best equipment in the world won’t help someone with a bad attitude. We will teach you the skills to become a rare breed. That breed is someone who wants to Make A Difference in the market place. An ordinary Barista means you will keep your job but being an extra-ordinary Barista could double the amount of coffee an establishment currently uses. The difference between an ordinary Barista and the extraordinary Barista is the extra part. These courses will help you to add the extra part to ordinary. The 4 day Intensive Barista Course run Monday to Thursday is a nationally recognised accredited course. The units of competency are: THHBFB12B Prepare and Serve Espresso Coffee THHGHS01B Follow Workplace Hygiene Procedures You will find this advantageous if you want to: Work in any Café or Restaurant Go on a Working Holiday around Australia Go on a Working holiday or Backpack around the world and you need that extra cash When you have completed this course you may (subject to availability) come into the Centre at no charge to practice and perfect your new skills. The shorter 3 hour Barista Basics Course is held every Friday and is a snapshot of what it takes to be a Barista. Even though it’s a three hour course you are welcome to come into the centre at 9am to get to know us and the equipment. The course runs from 10am – 1pm and then you are welcome to practice your new skills till 4pm. At completion of the course you will receive a Certificate of Completion signed by Barista and MadCap Ventures project Manager Anthony Cheeseman who has won various awards including Michels Patisserie Victorian Barista of the Year. We look forward to not only Making A Difference in your life but to help *you* Make A Difference in other people’s lives.
