Academy — Level 02

Intermediate Latte Art Class

Small room. Real reps. The Beginner class teaches you to pour. This is where you learn to pour with intention — four to five baristas per instructor, machine time all session.

The Format

01

4–5 baristas per instructor

No projector, no crowd. A small working group where every pour gets watched, corrected, and poured again — you're on the machine throughout, not waiting for a turn.

02

One design per session

The technique that opens a tulip is not the technique that draws a rosetta — different milk, different rhythm, different hand. We teach each design as its own craft, one class at a time.

What You'll Learn

The next tier of latte art, design by design: the layered tulip and how stacking actually works, the rosetta's wiggle and cut, and the milk-texture adjustments each pattern demands. You'll learn to read your own pour — why a pattern collapsed, what the milk was telling you, and how to fix it on the next cup instead of guessing.

Who It's For

Baristas past the heart. Your pours hold shape, but the harder patterns fall apart — or you can pour them once but not on demand. If you want the class where the instructor is standing next to your machine, this is it.

What's Included

Full-session machine access with all espresso and milk, coaching in a group small enough that nothing slips by, and a clear line of sight to what's next: when your patterns hold under repetition, the Advanced class puts you in the room with champions.

Taught by Competitors

Your instructors pour and judge on the national throwdown circuit Espresso State of Mind has run for ten years. They know exactly which habits fall apart under pressure — because they've watched thousands of pours do it.
