Head Barista Instructor · Redfern, Sydney
With 5 years of experience behind the bar at specialty cafés across Sydney, Wedana is passionate about breaking down the science and art of coffee into accessible, hands-on learning. Whether you're a complete beginner or sharpening your technique, every class is taught with patience, depth, and a lot of espresso — and the learning doesn't stop when you leave the bar.
@baristawayanSee what past students have to say about their masterclass experience.
"Honestly didn't know what I was doing with my machine at home. Two hours with Wedana and my flat whites actually taste like the café now. Obsessed."
"Booked the latte art class as a birthday thing and ended up the most invested person in the room lol. Poured my first proper tulip by the end. So worth it."
"Small group, super chill, zero gatekeeping. Wedana explains the why behind everything so it actually sticks. Already telling my mates to book in."

Just yourself! We provide all the necessary equipment, aprons, fresh milk, and unlimited coffee beans. We just recommend wearing comfortable, closed-toe shoes since you'll be standing at the espresso machine.
Not at all! Everything you need is provided in class — espresso machines, grinders, aprons, milk, and beans. You'll leave knowing exactly what to look for if you decide to set up at home, and the skills transfer to any machine, even the one at your local café.
Cancel or reschedule at least 48 hours before your session. Spots cancelled with less than 24 hours notice may not be eligible for a refund — but reach out and we'll always try to sort it out.
Yes, of course! We highly encourage you to capture your experience, especially your progress with latte art. Feel free to snap photos, take videos, and tag us on social media.
Absolutely. If you are looking to enter the hospitality industry, please let us know at the start of the session. We will gladly tailor parts of the training to focus on commercial workflows and guide you on the best industry pathways.
Yes, there is plenty of free street parking available in the surrounding neighborhood. However, please give yourself a few extra minutes before class to find a spot, as availability can vary depending on the time of day.
Learning doesn't stop when the class ends! You can always reach out to us by phone or email (listed in the footer below) or send us a direct message on Instagram. We're happy to help you troubleshoot your coffee at home.
If you're learning coffee to work in it, just say the word. We'll tailor your session toward commercial café workflows, speed, and consistency — and point you toward the right next steps to get behind a real bar. You won't just leave with skills; you'll leave with a plan.
Book a Career-Focused SessionYour learning doesn't stop when class ends. The Brew Academy Coffee Culture Forum is a space for students to swap tips, ask Wedana questions, and geek out over gear, roasting and recipes — any time, free forever. It's the kind of post-class support most schools simply don't offer.
