Behind every good cup of coffee stands a person who knows what they're doing. At Café Bitīte, we take special pride in this: our baristas are certified, professionally trained. In this article, we'll tell you what that means and why it's important for your daily coffee.
Official Lavazza Certification
Our team's baristas have obtained the Lavazza Training Center “Barista Course” certificate – official training led by authorized Lavazza trainers. The training took place in Riga, and the acquired certificates are displayed on the wall in our cafe – come and see for yourself!
This is no random choice. Since our cup contains Lavazza organic coffee, it's only logical that our baristas are also trained according to Lavazza standards – by the people who know this coffee best.
What Baristas Learn in the Course
The barista course is much more than "pressing a button." It includes:
- Espresso extraction – the correct grind, dose, and time so that the coffee is neither bitter nor sour
- Milk steaming – silky smooth, warm milk for cappuccino and latte
- Latte art – those beautiful patterns that adorn your cup
- Consistency – how to ensure every cup turns out equally good
Why This Is Important to You
A certified barista knows how to bring out the best qualities of coffee and avoid common mistakes. Combined with our professional La Cimbali M200 machine and organic Lavazza coffee, it means one thing: your cup with us will always be as good as the last. No surprises – just consistently good coffee.
People Who Create an Atmosphere
But behind the skill, there's also heart. Our baristas don't just make coffee – they create that warm, cozy feeling why people keep coming back to Café Bitīte. This is our family-like approach: professionalism with a smile.
