Green Coffee SCA Foundation Course and Certification in Italy

Green coffee SCA certification in Italy

At the end of our coffee route we always give to our participants the possibility to book SCA (former SCAE) certifications of Roasting, Barista, Brewing and Sensory Foundation (do you want to know what is it SCA/SCAE Specialty Coffee Association? Check our page here).

During our five days coffee route course we do not certify the Green coffee area, that is more specialised and really interesting just for people who want to know coffee in a very deep and professional way.

In the course, linked with the SCA certification we will lead the participants in a highly professional manner to discover all the key concepts surrounding the green coffee: plant growth , harvesting, processing drupes, transportation, storage until the arrival of in roasting coffee. It will be a busy day that will alternate the theoretical part practical tests for classification of green coffee and tasting in cupping.
