What an incredible weekend it’s been at the 2025 Oatly Australian Barista Championships, hosted by Coffee Works Express in Epping! The standard of competition this year was exceptional, with every competitor truly earning their place in the Top 6.
A huge thank you to our amazing sponsors—Oatly, Barista Attitude, Victoria Arduino, Riverina Fresh, Everpure, and Condesa Co Lab—for making this event such a success. Your support means the world to us!
