Need a recommendation on training DVD?

[Parcher]

Any suggestions? I am hoping for some input from the field here. Does anyone have any experience with these programs. Which one did you have experience with? Was it helpful. I will be faced with training a staff of volunteers here, and I will need some assistance.

Any other suggestions related to training will be helpful. Unfortunately we cant afford to send people to a class in person.

Thanks

I don't know which one is the best but just chatted with someone who paid $59.95 for a training video from oka and thought it sucked. Zoka is a great company and very reputable but apparently the video is short (one hour in total) and lacks much in the way of good detail. I have not seen it - this is what I'm told.

Check out Espresso 101 ... it is 85 min long and is very comprehensive. Visit http://www.espresso101.com and look at the "videos" page to see a large selection of videos.

Have you looked into espresso 101, 501 and other videos like everything but coffee by Bellissimo Coffee Info Group?
