How to Become a Good Barista With No Experience-Carlos Alvarado

Posted by Simonou Mike on

Perseverance is the tool to achieve your goals.

I'm Carlos.

I have Salvadoran roots and live and work in Italy currently , the homeland of pizza, pasta, wine and of course espresso.

I started as a barista in typical Italian bars. And discovered a new world and I fell in love, I think that if you love the work you do then you will work hard in your daily life.

So I started practicing latte art on my own, watching videos on YouTube, then start studying and delving into the coffee world, Now I still think that it is important and not only the practice, but also the theory.

And customer service is very important as well as a good drawing of Latte art because that can brighten the day to a person, a warm greeting and a smile do not have to miss.

I am currently studying the SCA (specialty coffee association) course and working in a coffee shop / micro roastery , That is only a small step in the long road that I have to travel.

A quality coffee, a correct extraction, a good latte art technique and a lot of passion are the combination for a good cappuccino.

And thanks to BaristaSpace because it gives us the necessary tools to do a good job in our work, thanks for the opportunity that I have here to make known what I do, since when I use BaristaSpace milk pitcher  , my Latte art has improved a lot and I am more precise and drawing cleaner.

thank you for letting me share my passion with the rest of the world, as future projects I want to start competing and learning to roast coffee, and remember filter coffee not people. and I like Music & Coffee , that is so good for my life.

  • After years of trying to fix my credit score on my own, I was at a complete standstill. I luckily bumped into a friend from high school MILES, he is now working with an IT FIRM, who hinted me about this best credit Repair Company CREDITFIRM NET SOLUTION, and it was the best decision I could have made. They were incredibly responsive and got to work immediately. Within a very short time, they had identified and begun to successfully challenge the errors that were holding me back.

  • Thank you Metronet Credit Solution for helping me fix my credit score. I suffered setback on health ground that affected my credit score drastically in the year 2023. Rebuilding my credit score became a nightmare because i was already into medical collections, loans that I couldn’t pay back after my recovery in 2024, this became a very serious challenge for me, had to go online shuffling for a reputable company that could help fix my credit to no avail. On 26th of July,2025, a friend in Texas reached out to me, I complained what I was passing through, and he recommended this amazing company which I gave a shoot. I reached out to this company on 15th of August, 2025 for help,and this amazing company promised to fix my credit score after about 20mins conversation with the company, they assured to fix my credit score, delete late payments,and all negative items on my reports showing across credit bureau! Couldn’t believe it initially because it was too good to be true. Wow! to my greatest surprise, I was asked to verify and confirm my new credit score across the 3 credit bureau, and I did as directed only to see an amazing excellent credit score with all my negative items cleared, it was like a magic but then, I refused to recommend their services because I want to be very sure it was going to work out and I kept monitoring the new credit score to see if it will drop but it never dropped. Just last week Thursday, I applied for a loan from a credit firm that was into loan and got approved from same loan company that turned me down late last year. Thank you Metronet for all your help. Kindly reach via: WhatsApp or Email: METRONETCREDITSOLUTION@GMAIL.COM. Don’t forget to mention that Mr. Roger Morgan recommended their services to you.
