Barista Part 1 2

The experience I gained from the NZ School of Food and Wine was amazing Initially I had no idea about making coffee beverages professionally However with clear and expert guidance from Jinnie I learned a great deal about the various types of coffee beverages operating a Coffee Machine professionally and all the steps involved in the process I am deeply grateful to Jinnie for this invaluable education
