Batching 101 with John Deragon and Trevor Kallies will cover the origin of our batching procedure, how the CAP team goes from a sometimes broken single cocktail recipe to a batch recipe that can serve an entire seminar room (presenters first). It will cover the evolution of batching, recipe generation, batch size calculation and the ‘Cocktail Apprentice Method’ of batching success. And, of course, there will be some stories and anecdotes along the way.

MModerated by CAP Leader A-K Hada, featuring CAPs Alexis Tinoco and Juyoung Kang, Batching 201 will take attendees through the last steps of the CAP batching process. Learn how to review and spot-check recipes for errors, the importance of a printed recipe card & labels, discuss the various pitfalls that may occur when batching, receive an overview on estimating yields for ingredient purchasing, garnish prep, and of course, how to use this knowledge to contribute to your bar program.

If you missed “Batching Part I: Batching 101”, we recommend you watch before tuning in.

Join Zahra Bates, Daisy Dudley, and Richard Beltzer as they delve into the importance of ‘knowing your why’. This will be an all-CAP alumni panel discussing how we take our most important steps of personal development in and outside of the industry and the role purpose plays in our decision-making. Bring your passion and curiosity and let’s explore the potential of our careers when we prioritize ourselves.

Join Rhiannon Enlil, Joann Spiegel, and Justin Lane Briggs to discuss how their careers have shifted from working behind the bar into roles of logistics, education, and presentations. With decades of experience as working bartenders, all three former CAPs now have unique positions in the world of spirits and cocktails. Whether you’re looking to make a change or planning for the future, these three CAPs share insights on alternative routes in the beverage industry.
