Page 12 of 64 SITHFAB012A Prepare and serve espresso coffee The Barista Why this section is important to you “Barista” is the generally accepted term for an espresso coffee operator. In Italian it translates to “barman”, but in Australia it is the term applied to any individual who professionally operates an espresso bar or espresso machine within a food and beverage operation. Exceptional espresso coffee relies on the marriage of the barista, the espresso equipment and the coffee. In Italy, the profession is highly respected, and in most regions, a barista is only allowed at the controls of the espresso machine after an apprenticeship of 3-4 years. Responsibilities of the barista include: Produce good quality, consistent espresso coffee Work efficiently and constantly in making espresso coffee Check water and steam pressure of espresso machine Adjust grinder as required for correct coffee extraction Remember regular customers‟ preferred coffee styles and requirements Explain to customers the style and flavour of coffee beans used and difference between various espresso-based coffees served Maintain the espresso machine and grinder Stock control, storage and rotation to ensure freshness
