Overview
In summary, the competitors will be required to present two separate sets of free-pour lattes, followed by one set of designer lattes. All of the pours must match a pre-prepared photograph of the same design. Competitors will have five minutes of preparation time, followed by ten minutes of competition time. The routine will be delivered in front of four judges: two visual judges, one technical, and one head judge.
Competitors are required to use the espresso machine, grinder, coffee, cups, and milk chosen by the competition. A big aspect of this competition is preparing for having to use unfamiliar equipment and ingredients! Competitors will be evaluated on technical and visual aspects of the performance.
Ultimately, all competitors are responsible to understand the current WLAC rules and regulations. The format for the Canadian competition is referred to as “Final Round” in WLAC terms.
