Elyse Hi, I am a local in Phoenix that is looking to eventually start a small restaurant/coffee shop of my own. i have a degree in the management and food side of things and have worked in several environments, but I would love to know more about coffee and the creative process of it since that is one thing I lack. I am wondering if there are classes in the valley periodically that are just about coffee. Thanks! Elyse 0 Reply March 25, 2015
Chris Tingom Cartel Coffee just announced a $15 Brewing Class Starting March 29. Call them, perhaps. 0 Reply March 25, 2015
Ranilo Garcia I’m interested to learn more about coffee, I had a coffee shop and right now I’m relying on our staff. What is your next course? How much does it cost and how long is the course 0 Reply April 28, 2016
