MILKLAB Barista Social Club is one of the ways we continue to colLABorate with the industry offering upcoming baristas the opportunity to learn from influential industry experts and build on their knowledge and skills.

Each quarter we will be teaming up with a selection of guest speakers to bring you an online panel discussion covering relevant industry topics, hosted by Caleb Holstein, Founder of Coffee Curators.

Barista Social Club online panel discussions will be streamed from influential coffee venues across Australia with a limited number of spots available for local baristas to watch the panel LIVE and participate in a supporting, hands on workshop led by one of our MILKLAB Master Baristas.
