  • We had a wonderful experience! Casey covered all aspects of dialing in espresso, milk frothing, and machine care. We are mainly home coffee enthusiasts, but I really loved learning on a real commerial setup (La Marzocco, etc...). Thank you Casey for a wonderful experience!

Group Cupping Class

Looking for a unique and engaging activity for friends, coworkers, or team-building? Join us for a guided coffee cupping session led by a trained coffee professional.

Cupping is the method used by coffee professionals to evaluate the quality and characteristics of coffee beans—and it’s also a fun, sensory-filled way to explore coffee with others. Together, you'll sample a curated selection of specialty coffees from around the world and learn how to assess aroma, flavor notes, body, and acidity.

No prior experience needed—this session is designed to be approachable for beginners while still offering something new for coffee enthusiasts. It’s the perfect mix of education, interaction, and discovery. This experience can be set up at your office or another community space—we just need access to a table and a few outlets.

Class Length: 2 – 2.5 hours
Cost: $250 for groups of up to 15 people. Please inquire about pricing for larger groups.

“I recently attended a group coffee cupping class and it completely exceeded my expectations. Casey, owner of Mid-Bloom was incredibly knowledgeable and guided us through each step of the tasting process in a way that was both approachable and insightful.

We sampled a variety of beans, learned about the process and story behind each blend, and were educated on the proper cupping techniques. The environment was relaxed, welcoming, and perfect for both beginners and more experienced coffee lovers.

I left with a deeper appreciation for coffee and the complex process behind every cup. Highly recommend this class to anyone curious about coffee or looking for a fun and educational group activity!”
