Workshop: Cupping & Sensory (4 November 2026)
Cupping is how the industry tastes coffee: the same grind, the same water, the same time, so the only thing left to compare is the coffee itself. It's also the fastest way there is to train a palate.
Three hours at our roastery, tasting side by side. We set up the table, break the crust and work through the coffees together, putting names to things you're already tasting. There's no right answer to defend here. Everyone at the table tastes a little differently, and that turns out to be the interesting part.
Led by Josiana, an SCA certified coffee professional and founder of IdCoffeeLab.

Workshop: Cupping & Sensory (4 November 2026)
We teach the sessions we wish we'd been able to book
Most of what we know about coffee we learned standing next to someone who knew more, so we open the roastery and pass it on. The sessions run with IdCoffeeLab: they bring the teaching, we bring the roastery and the coffee. Brewing, cupping and roasting, in groups small enough that everyone gets their hands on the machine.
Before you book
The things people ask us most. If yours isn't here, write to us and we'll answer.
If you want the coffee you make at home to get better, start with Home Barista. If you want to taste more precisely, and understand why one coffee costs more than another, book Cupping. Roasting is the one to do once you're curious about what happened before the bag. They don't build on each other, so you can start anywhere. Still unsure? Write to us and tell us how you make coffee now.
No. Every session is built so someone doing it for the first time can follow it, and someone who already brews every day still leaves with something. You don't need to own any equipment either.
Spanish. Groups are small, so if you'd rather follow it in English, tell us when you book and we can usually run it that way.
Tell us at least seven days before and we'll move you to another session or refund you in full. Inside seven days the coffees and the places are already prepared, so we can only pass your place to someone you name.
Yes. Book the place, send us the name of the person coming, and we'll get in touch with them. If the date doesn't suit them we'll move them to the next session.
We're at our roastery in Ajalvir, north east of Madrid, easiest to reach by car, with parking outside the unit. Coming by public transport? Write to us and we'll help you work out the connection.
Yes. Tell us how many of you there are and what you'd like to get out of it, and we'll put a session together around that.
Hands-on coffee workshops at our roastery, run in partnership with IdCoffeeLab. Three-hour sessions in small groups covering brewing, cupping and roasting, taught on the same equipment we use every day. No experience required, just an interest in understanding what ends up in the cup.
