Sensory Zero

More than just purveyors of great espressos, Sensory Zero is the go-to place for up-and-coming coffee professionals and bean geeks alike. Led by certified Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) trainers Dixon Ip and Alvin Hui, the café leads workshops every week, offering everything from the basics – introduction to espresso workshop, latte art and cupping – to deep dives into the origins of coffee. The two also offer officially sanctioned SCA courses for aspiring baristas, including SCA Barista, Brewing, Roasting and Sensory training, as well as the Q Grader certification programme managed by Coffee Quality Institute. Those will cost you around $2,500 each, but the basic workshops start at around $450.
