Ever wondered how a barista handles making multiple different orders in a busy cafe environment? We break it down in this video with a fairly complicated (but realistic) sequence of orders you will find in a typical Melbourne cafe.

Here is the coffee order:

• Dine-in strong latte
• Large takeaway oat cappuccino
• Dine-in latte
• Dine-in flat white
• Babycino
• Large takeaway soy chai latte
• Small takeaway cappuccino - 1 sugar
• Small takeaway cappuccino
• Dine-in long black

In this video we have our 2 barista trainers - Justin and Charles working as a team of 2, pumping out these coffees as fast as they can without comprimising quality. Note that all this was shot with one take to give a realistic example of how we would handle these orders in a cafe environment.

Working as a barista in Melbourne is never easy and cafes don't just want a talented barista but also someone that is fast, friendly, clean and personable. While the main focus of our coffee training academy is barista training, we also give students real life, practical experience within a cafe environment during our Barista Apprenticeship and Barista Masterclass program. This doesn’t just teach them the skills to make great coffee but also gives them the confidence to get a job as a barista in some of the best specialty coffee cafes in Melbourne.
