A coffee workshop mixes learning with team building. People learn about coffee and about each other.
An in-office coffee workshop is a short session where the team learns coffee basics: bean types, brewing methods, and making milk drinks. Run it in a meeting room or the kitchen, with an outside host or a colleague who knows the subject.
A sample agenda
- A short intro to beans and roast levels.
- Comparing two brewing methods.
- Milk drinks – simple techniques.
- A joint tasting and Q&A.
Equipment
What the office already has is enough, plus one extra brewing method such as a pour-over or French press. Outside hosts often bring their own gear.
The everyday effect
After the workshop, people make better use of the office device. It is a good moment to review drink settings, for example on the coffee vending machine (publisher's site).
FAQ
How long does a workshop take? Usually an hour to a few hours, depending on the agenda.
Can it be done online? Partly – the theory yes, the practice needs equipment at each person's end.
