TESTIMONIALS

BEN W. Dear Jenine and the crema coffee team, I just want to express my thanks for your excellent training. It has enabled me to gain some employment. I appreciated the small class size and the attention we recieved as students to better our skills. I really appreciate it. I can’t speak highly enough of you guys.
APPLE LOANS TEAM, QLD. The lure of having good coffee at work became too great so we spoke to Shannon and the team at “Crema Coffee Garage” they have been fantastic, set us up with our own machine, training and provide us with a continual supply of fantastic coffee, we have tried just about all of them now. We could not be happier and the smell of fresh coffee in the office is irresistible.
KAREN W, QLD. We are very happy to have found Mick and the team at Crema Coffee Garage. With expertise and persistence, they tamed our misbehaving fully automatic machine, which now produces a flavour superior to when first purchased! Always friendly and happy to take the time to explain tips and tricks, these people are serious about coffee. Highly recommend you seek their advice first. Wish we had.
MELISSA Hi Jenine, Thanks for the course today. The training was great…….. It was fantastic for each student to have their own machine which meant there was plenty of time to practice each type of coffee. I picked up a lot of useful information and tips. You created a very relaxed learning environment today which made the day even more enjoyable.
MERV Thank you for your kindness and patience in sorting out my problems. I have just made a cappuccino your style and it worked and the flavour was great. I really appreciate it and also the warmth of your staff and especially Nick for his endurance. Best wishes. Catch you soon!

KRISTY-LEE G. I fully enjoyed learning and completing the Barista course and have already recommend my friends train at crema cafe for their barista certificate.

Thank you crema cafe and Jenine for helping me complete my dream to be a barista.
