Home Brewing Class at Man vs Machine
Master Filter Coffee at Home
Want to brew coffee-shop quality filter coffee in your own kitchen? Our Home Brewing Class at the roastery is designed to turn your daily coffee routine into a mindful ritual. Learn the science behind manual brewing, master your favorite coffee gear, and discover how to extract the maximum flavor from every single bean.
What You Will Learn:
- From Root to Ritual: Explore specialty coffee history, discover where coffee was first found, and see how it spread across the globe. We will track the bean’s journey from harvest to cup so you truly understand what makes specialty coffee special.
- Decoding the Bag: Learn how to read coffee labels like a pro. Find out which origin, processing method, and roast info will help you predict exactly how a new coffee will behave and taste before you even open the bag.
- The Anatomy of a Filter Brew: We will literally split a single pour-over brew into separate parts. By tasting each stage individually, you will learn exactly when different flavors extract, allowing you to troubleshoot and perfect your home recipes.
- Hands-on Brewing & Experimentation: Step up to the brew bar and start pouring. You will test different specialty coffees and experiment with a single bean by changing just one variable at a time—like water temperature or coffee-to-water ratio—so you can taste the massive impact of minor adjustments.
