Judging

Judges are required for nearly all SCA UK Coffee Championships, and we are expecting a record number of competitors for the 2025 season.

We will be holding the 2025 Judges Certification and Calibration early in 2025. 

Anyone interested in learning about judging or wanting to certify is encouraged to email info@scauk.coffee

All judges will be required to be a valid SCA member. 

If you have not judged before we are looking at continuing to grow the high calibre of UK Judges that we have in our judging pool and are looking for people with SCA Qualifications, at Intermediate level or above, Q Grader Qualification or are a recognised coffee professional within their day to day work.

Please note: Calibrated judges are not permitted to compete in any championships which include judges (excludes SCA UK Cup Tasters Championship).
