This seminar explores advanced centrifugation techniques in cocktail making, focusing on clarification and fat-washing to enhance flavor, texture, and presentation. It demonstrates how these methods streamline traditionally time-intensive processes, delivering precision, consistency, and high-quality results with speed.
Led by Giusy Castaldo in collaboration with Miguel Mora and Ohaus, participants will engage in live demonstrations using Ohaus centrifuges, learning how clarification produces crystal-clear liquids and and how fat-washing infuses rich flavors into spirits, with centrifugation enabling rapid separation while preserving clarity, richness, and complexity.
Through hands-on demonstrations and practical frameworks, attendees will gain tools they can immediately apply to their own programs. By the end of the session, bartenders and bar managers will understand how to integrate centrifugation to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and elevate their approach to cocktail creation, while recognizing the value and long-term impact of incorporating these methods into their operations.
