Barista Training
All of our Portland Roasting customers
are invited to take part in a free barista training. As long as you are a
Portland Roasting customer, you and all your employees, old and new, will
receive training. We offer on-site training here at the roasting plant,
with weekly classes such as 'Basic Barista Training', 'Getting to know
your Grinder', and 'Latte Art', to name a few. And if you can’t get
to us, we can come to your location and perform onsite training as well.
We will make sure that you, as our customer, will be making quality
espresso drinks and coffee every time.
