This s a thorough professional grounding(pardon the pun) in everything you need to know to make the perfect coffee. Downside....you can't go out and drink coffee without critiquing every aspect!! Becky

1st of all I would like to thank all the staff at Limini Coffee for a fantastic day. The day started with a short introduction to the machine and then straight into the art of making coffees the correct way, the morning flow by and before we knew it we were having lunch, then on to the hard part " how to run a coffee shop" while Stu was going over the coursework Youri took time out of his busy schedule to scan over my business plan and highlight a few mistakes ( thanks Youri ) the team that run Limini Coffee are a very professional group with a great understanding of what people need from the course. It was well worth it for us and anyone wishing to start a coffee shop, once again thank to all the staff for there help and expertise John & Angie

The course covers all the things you need to know about starting up your own coffee shop. Stu had so much knowledge and passion, we left feeling that we'd really been given a great insight into so many things, and the coffee is amazing. We can't wait to start implementing our plans and begin making some of that coffee!! Thanks again Limini. Kelly

Although it was a long drive to Bradford it was well worth it. An excellent day. Great premises Stu was fantastic, very knowledgable and informative and extremely patient dealing with a complete novice. The 'how to set up a coffee shop' gave me very valuable information and will help me develop my business plan. I cannot recommend it enough. Thanks should also go to Becs for her organisational skill, friendly and pleasant approach. Thanks to all at Limini - Heather

The course was excellent because it covered every aspect of the business and left nothing to chance. I really appreciated the profit and costings section which helped me to understand how to work out the prices correctly. I also appreciated the after-course support. Knowing you have someone to bounce ideas off who understand your business is perfect. It is an excellent start for anyone who is considering opening a coffee house. Thanks to the brilliant team at Limini, I will be taking you up on your support offer. Wendy

Great 2 days spent with Stuart who was very patient mopping-up after me. Felt a total newby at the beginning but by the end of the 1st day was pretty confident about making a great tasting coffee. Stuart and Youri's love for coffee is infectious and leaves you wanting more. Oh coffee is lovely too! - George

In a nutshell (or perhaps in a coffee husk!)... (1) a two-day intensive course of meaningful theory and practical hands-on application. (2) Conceived and created by professional & highly experienced coffee experts, primarily for coffee shop start-up entrepreneurs. (3) A course intended for those who share that passion for coffee, and who (also) constantly strive for professionalism and exemplary customer service... to be the best that they can be! This has got to be one of the best training courses of its kind in the country. Youri and Stu (and Becks in Admin/Support!) are wonderfully skilled and infectious, patient people. Some of the best money you'll ever spend! Incidentally, by fleshing out our needs during discussions over the two days, we have calculated that the advice we received has already saved us several thousand pounds! Do the right thing... start with the best training and support, and then practice life-long learning in your coffee shop craft! James

A very good course. Stu worked at our pace and we now feel more than confident to go back and train our own staff. Thanks Stu Rick & Steven

Barista and Latte Art with Youri. The premises are fantastic, with some beautiful La Spaziale (and other) grinders and coffee machines. The Limini blend makes the most amazing coffee all day. We made filter coffee from freshly roasted beans, espresso macchiato, latte art with flowers and teddy bears, coffee drawn up through a siphon, ristretto, single shots, double shots, shots though a naked (training/bottomless) portafilter, hot chocolate, affogato, tea, flat whites and cappuccinos, and every single time was as good as the first. I'm writing this as I drink my first flat white of the day, resplendent with leaf latte art, preceded by a breakfast espresso and mid-morning cappuccino. I couldn't recommend this enough to anyone with a passion for great coffee. Thanks to all at Limini - Jon.

Highly recommended!!!! I attended the barista training under the supervision of Youri, that man lives and breathes quality coffee! 4 hours went by in an instant. The groups are small so you get full attention from Youri and he has all the patience in the world to help you get to where you need to be. I took some fresh beans away with me as i couldn't wait to practise what i had learned as soon as i got home. I needed this support for my new business, but this is such a great course i wish i had done it sooner, just for the personal knowledge! Thanks Limini - Keith
