☕️ SCA Barista Skills Intermediate – Day 2

ต่อเนื่องกับ Day 2 ของคลาส SCA Barista Skills Intermediate ที่ผู้เรียนได้ลงมือฝึกมากขึ้น ทั้งการควบคุมคุณภาพ Espresso และการทำ Milk Beverage อย่างเป็นระบบ ☕🥛

หลังจากวางพื้นฐานและทำความเข้าใจตัวแปรสำคัญในวันแรก วันนี้เราเริ่มต่อยอดไปสู่การนำความรู้มาใช้จริง โดยผู้เรียนได้ฝึกในหัวข้อสำคัญ เช่น

☕ การวิเคราะห์และปรับ Recipe ของ Espresso
⚙️ การปรับเครื่องบดและแก้ไข Extraction ให้เหมาะสม
📊 การควบคุม Dose, Yield, Brew Ratio และ Brew Time
🥛 เทคนิคการสตรีมนมให้ได้ Texture ที่เหมาะสม
🎨 การฝึกเทและพื้นฐาน Latte Art
👅 การชิมและเปรียบเทียบผลลัพธ์จากการปรับตัวแปรต่าง ๆ
🧼 การจัด Workflow และดูแลความสะอาดระหว่างการทำงาน

Day 2 เน้นให้ผู้เรียนสามารถเชื่อมโยงระหว่าง ตัวเลข เทคนิค และรสชาติในแก้ว ไม่ใช่เพียงทำให้ได้ตามสูตร แต่ต้องสามารถวิเคราะห์ได้ว่าเมื่อผลลัพธ์เปลี่ยนไป เราควรปรับตรงไหนและเพราะอะไร

อีกหนึ่งวันที่เต็มไปด้วยการทดลอง ชิม ปรับ และฝึกซ้ำ เพื่อสร้างความเข้าใจและความมั่นใจก่อนเข้าสู่วันต่อไป ☕️✨
