Home Espresso 101

Ever wondered why espresso at the roastery tastes so much better than what you make at home? Let’s fix that.

Join us at Yellow Dog Coffee for a hands-on home espresso workshop led by Rob. This relaxed, beginner-friendly class is designed to help you pull a better shot using your own home espresso machine—and understand why it works.

We’ll cover the basics of espresso making, including grind size, dosing, tamping, and extraction. You’ll get hands-on practice using our espresso machine, plus tips you can take home and apply right away. We’ll also touch on other popular brewing methods like pour-overs and French press, so you leave with a better understanding of coffee beyond espresso.

Every attendee will receive a 12oz. bag of Yellow Dog Espresso Blend to keep practicing at home.

No experience required—just curiosity and a love of good coffee.
