You want to dive deeper into the world of coffee – whether as a home barista who wants to better understand their own machine, as a team looking for a creative workshop, or as a café owner who wants to train their staff. Coffee Coaching Club offers practical coffee workshops and team events in Bern and Zurich – in German or English.

Our workshops combine two worlds: in-depth flavor chemistry from our roasting practice (our team brings a trained flavorist and chemistry perspective with over a decade of experience in industrial flavor development) and gastronomic hospitality (Anke leads the workshops as a host and coach with gastronomic experience). This combination shapes every session: technically sound, sensually experienced, with room for exchange.

Workshop Formats

What Makes the Workshops Special

Three characteristics define the CCC workshops. First, the in-depth flavor chemistry: from our roasting practice and experience in flavor development, an unusual perspective on coffee emerges – how flavors develop during roasting, which volatile substances characterize which beans, how extraction influences the aroma profile. Second, the host-like atmosphere: Anke ensures physical well-being and a connected mood. Third, the roasting practice: We are a roastery ourselves and bring beans from our own production into the workshops – not abstract theory, but concrete profiles that you can then brew yourself.

Who are the Workshops for?

For home baristas who want to take their own machine to the next level. For teams looking for a creative, sensory event. For café owners who want to train staff. For coffee lovers who want to deepen their flavor vocabulary. For beginners as well as advanced participants – we adapt the content to your level. You decide, no pressure, no upselling.

What goes well with it

After the workshop: further build up your own setup equipment. Coffee machines, grinders, barista tools. For bean variety: our coffee beans from our own roastery. For filter methods: filter equipment. For gifts: bundles or gift vouchers.

How do I book a workshop?

Write to us briefly with your request (format, group, date). We will get back to you with a proposal.

How is your cupping different from others?

Classic SCA cupping plus flavor chemistry classification – we name what you taste and explain why these flavors developed in this bean. Our roasting practice and the team's experience in flavor development provide a more analytical perspective on taste. For many participants, this is a new approach to coffee.
