A fantastic Coffee Training Session, I learnt a great deal on 'everything coffee'.Youri is an excellent trainer, makes the session fun, very relevant and teaches you the best practices.Excellent. Green Cauldron

I attended the Barista training as we have had an expresso machine for over 2 years and although we were producing coffee I felt we were not doing it quite right. After attending the training at Limini realise just how bad the coffee was that we were producing. The course was excellent and gave me a much more detailed knowledge about all aspects of producing excellent coffee. Well worth the 6 and... OILY'S Limited

I recently attended a one-to-one barista training day with Youri. Experienced in many cafe environments I thought I knew a lot about Coffee, however Youri was able to improve on my knowledge as well as introduce me to several new skills related to the industry such as roasting and latte art.

Had one of Youri's evening classes with both of us working full time, The course taught us a lot more about making great coffee than we realised. Youri lets you learn at your own pace & learn by your own mistakes. We now feel more comfortable about serving great tasting coffee & not just a good coffee. You will be surprised how much you learn ( we was ). M & M Espresso Bar

Several months ago we attended a barista course with Youri-it was fantastic and inspired us to go ahead with plans to open a coffee shop!fast forward to now a week before Lilly`s is due to open and we were stuggling with our machine and grinder-we approached a local so callled coffee expert(only 5 miles away from our home)and they couldnt be bothered to help us!!So we telephoned Youri who gave us some fab advice on the phone and sent us some fantastic FRESH coffee beans-then above and beyond the call of duty Youri came to see us personally.Youri is a gentleman-nothing is to much trouble and he has the patience of a saint!!What a credit to Limini Coffee-we may only be a small business but Youri really cares and is passionate about Coffee!Can`t thank you enough Youri-Your a star!!thanks Pete and Sue xx

Excellent, what a great day. My wife and I both attended the barista training with Youri. We are newbies to the coffee business having recently set up our mobile coffee shop. When we purchased our coffee machine from a different supplier it included 'barista training', so after the training we thought we knew what we were doing! However, after initially meeting Youri for a morning coffee tasting session with a view to future supplies, we were fortunate that two people booked on the afternoon course had to cancel and we were able to get on the course at short notice. We learnt so much more, had lots of practice, got to work as a team with the other student on the course, which was fun and competitive. Who produced the best latte art? As other people have said Youri has a lot of experience and knows his stuff, and more importantly he can get it across very well. We came away rejuvenated, enthusiastic, and with extra useful knowledge about the coffee business. What we also took away is some of Youri's enthusiasm for coffee, you don't find that in the training schedule. Along with others I strongly recommend Youri's training, give him a call. Thanks Youri, Mike and Donna. Excellent, what a great day. My wife and I both attended the barista training with Youri.

I attended the two day training course with Youri, and it was fantastic. His knowledge of coffee and the industry makes him an invaluable resource for anyone looking to start up in this business. Youri's style is relaxed and accommodating, and he is patient with those who can't master latte art!! The two days were really good value, and with only four people doing the training, there was plenty of time for each of us. We were allowed as much coffee and milk to practice with as we needed (which added to the great value) and I think everyone learnt a huge amount. The less practical aspects took the form of round-table discussions (rather than "lectures" and Youri had an answer, based on real-life experience, for everything. Where he wasn't sure (the intricacies of tax law!) he said so. Overall, I believe this course delivered great value; Youri is there to help you, rather than to 'sell' to you. As and when my coffee shop gets going, Youri will be my first port of call for equipment and training. If you're thinking of doing the course, do it.

I had a great time on my barrista course With Youri. I would recommend to anyone wanting to brush up there coffee making skills for business or just for fun.Thanks. Barnsley Oriental Supplies

We were a group of three on the "How to start a coffee shop" 2-day course. I'm probably at least a year off opening my own place and I wanted to go on this course to give myself a broader understanding of what I'll be letting myself in for. For me the course was perfect. Youri's a fun and interesting trainer with a genuine enthusiasm and interest in quality coffee. I can't think of anything that wasn't covered as part of the training or after questions. We made (and drank!) A LOT of coffee. Great mix of barista training and business info. Thank you Youri, a hugely enjoyable two days packed with great coffee, information and resources.

Just had a brilliant day with some one on one training with Youri. This guy knows how to bang out some great tasting coffees and by the end of the day I wasn't doing a bad job of it myself all down to his effortless guidance.A serious emphasis was placed on the importance of the grinder as well as the espresso machine and their daily set up.Along the way we chatted about the coffee shop business with a few reality checks. Youri's enthusiasm for quality coffee, friendly nature and sense of humour made it a fun day and I learnt a lot. Many thanks.Danny Just had a brilliant day with some one on one training with Youri.
