Q-Grading
We’re sure you’re passionate about coffee. Do you want to take this to the next level and become a licensed Q grader?
At Seabridge, we offer you this possibility in partnership with the Coffee Quality Institute (CQI). Optimize your coffee skills and challenge yourself, whilst experiencing a sensory journey in our state-of-the-art, first Belgian SCA certified cupping lab.Â
Passing the elaborate Q exam after an extensive preparation course will be very rewarding!
Q-Cupping
Q Cupping Essentials teaches the cupping skills needed to properly evaluate specialty coffee quality. This is a great entry-level course for someone looking to understand cupping and can be completed either as a stand-alone Q Cupping Essentials certification, or as preparation to take CQI’s Q Grader training and exam – the path to earning a Q Grader Certification.
During the Q Cupping Essentials course, you will learn how to properly use the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) cupping protocol and form for Arabica and the CQI cupping form for Robusta.
