Come share with Dara, also known as Dara Caffeine. A chemical engineer, Q-Grader and specialist in coffee water, as well as Sensory and Brewing, Dara represents Orea in Spain and internationally. Her approach combines science, technique and innovation to drive new ways of understanding and enjoying specialty coffee.
As part of our training project, Dara joins us as a key partner to enrich the learning experience from a technical and sensory perspective. Together we will explore coffee from its molecular complexity to its expression in the cup, creating a space where deep knowledge becomes a tool to grow and share.
Content of the course
Play and Brew: a fresh and fun dynamic to understand how small variables transform a cup of coffee.
Getting to know Orea: discover the values of the brand and how its filtering methods have changed the way coffee is prepared around the world.
With Dara - Dart Caffeine: a hands-on session to explore the potential of Orea's three brewers. In synergy with the Nomad Academy team, Dara proposes a collaborative dynamic where technique, innovation and sensory exploration come together to discover new possibilities in the extraction and experience of filtered coffee.
TCA Method: we will show you how we analyze and test new products before bringing them to our stores or to the web, sharing the quality protocols that help us to bet on the best.
Demonstration and tasting: prepare and try with us the three Orea methods. We will analyze their differences while you write down your discoveries in a notebook specially designed for the occasion.
Free tasting in groups: the most awaited moment, where you will have the opportunity to experiment. Change filters, mills, waters or kettles to achieve your goal: more body, more acidity or more sweetness. Each round will be a challenge and the best recipe will have a prize.
The workshop takes place in our Roaster located at Carrer Marroc 160, 08019 Barcelona.
The week of the course we will send you an email reminding you of our appointment, see you soon!
