At Siemasu Coffee Roastery, we believe coffee is more than a beverage. It’s an experience shaped by origin, craft and intention. Our workshops and courses are designed to open up the world behind the cup, combining knowledge, sensory exploration and hands-on practice.
Whether you join us for a roasting workshop or an espresso course, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of how coffee truly works: from variety and processing to roast development, grind size and extraction. We explore how each decision influences sweetness, balance, acidity and body and most importantly, how to taste and understand those differences yourself.
Our experiences are practical, approachable and thoughtfully structured. You won’t just listen, you’ll roast, brew, taste and experiment. By comparing different roasts, extractions and flavour profiles, you’ll build a sensory reference point that helps you consistently create better coffee.
These sessions are ideal for curious home brewers, coffee enthusiasts and professionals who want to refine their skills and deepen their appreciation for specialty coffee.
Join us to experience coffee with clarity, confidence and curiosity.

A deep dive into coffee from origin to roast to cup
Join us at Siemasu for an immersive journey into the world of specialty coffee.
During the workshop, you’ll roast your own coffee on a professional roaster and experience firsthand how small changes shape flavour. Each roast becomes a conversation: we explore origin, variety, processing methods, roast development and how these choices affect sweetness, acidity, body and overall balance in the cup.
Once everyone has roasted their coffee, we taste them together through a guided cupping, the industry standard method for evaluating coffee quality and character. Think of it as the coffee world’s version of wine tasting.
You’ll learn the fundamentals of roasting, but more importantly, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of coffee as a raw material: why it tastes different depending on terroir, variety, processing and roasting decisions.
By the end of the workshop, you won’t just know which coffees you like, you’ll understand why.
And of course, you’ll take home the coffee you roasted (3kg) to enjoy and share.
Workshop location is Hatanpään Valtatie 40 D 1, 33900 Tampere

Are you curious about how to brew better espresso?
Do you want to understand what truly affects the taste in your cup?
We are inviting you to join our Espresso Course.
In this 2-hour course, you will gain an in-depth understanding of our approach to brewing espresso, combining theory with a practical, hands-on workflow. You’ll learn how different variables interact: the coffee itself, grind size, dose, distribution, tamping, extraction time and yield and how each decision shapes the final flavour.
We begin by brewing a well-extracted espresso for everyone to taste, establishing a sensory reference point. You will also taste less desirable extractions to understand the full flavour spectrum, from under-extracted to over-extracted, and learn how to recognise and correct them.
This course is primarily practical. You will work directly with the equipment, learning techniques that make espresso brewing approachable, repeatable and efficient. The goal is to give you the confidence and fundamental skills needed to consistently brew sweet, balanced and expressive espresso, whether at home or in a professional setting.
There will be a short break with refreshments and small bites, giving you time to recharge and reflect on the knowledge gained.
