The Fort Lee series

Learn it, then do it yourself. Two classes on the same two coffees, four weeks apart. Coffee 101 shows you what to do and why. Hands-On is where you actually brew it, round after round. Take either on its own, or bundle both and save.

    Hands-On Brewing

    –

    189 Main St, Fort Lee, NJ

    Where Coffee 101 leaves off. Six people, dedicated stations, brew after brew until it's muscle memory, with us coaching. Skipped 101? You'll still walk out knowing what to do.

    189 Main St, Fort Lee, NJ
