Portland: Make Fresh Pasta at a Local Brewery

Turn simple ingredients into an unforgettable meal in this hands-on pasta class in Portland. Hosted at a trendy local brewery, this experience with Chef Jimmy focuses on building confidence in classic pasta techniques. You’ll start by mixing flour and eggs into a traditional dough, learning how to knead and rest it properly for elasticity and smoothness. Then roll and cut your dough into fresh pasta, refining skills that elevate weeknight cooking into something special. To complete the dish, prepare a bright, herb-forward pesto made from basil, olive oil and garlic, discovering how texture and seasoning bring fresh pasta to life. After plating your creation, sit back and enjoy the meal you crafted in a vibrant brewery setting — an approachable, flavor-packed experience perfect for anyone ready to cook with confidence.

Q&A

Q: How do I reschedule this class if something comes up?

A: You can typically reschedule by contacting Classpop! directly. They’re pretty flexible but it’s best to let them know at least a few days in advance. Just keep an eye on their cancellation policy too, since that can vary by event.

Q: Is there an age limit for this pasta class? I want to bring my teenager.

A: No specific age limit, but it’s recommended for ages 12 and up. Kids younger than that might struggle with some techniques. It’s a fun way for teens to learn cooking skills though!

Q: What should I wear to this pasta-making class?

A: Definitely wear something casual that you don’t mind getting a little messy! An apron is a must. The brewery can get a bit chilly, so you might want to layer up too, just in case.

Just did the pasta class at the brewery - what an experience!

I went to the 'Make Fresh Pasta' class last week at the local brewery in Portland, and I can't recommend it enough! Chef Jimmy was a fantastic instructor. We made our own pasta from scratch and the pesto was to die for. It’s a hands-on class, so you really get to dive into the process. Plus, enjoying your meal with a cold brew is just perfect. I'm planning to gift this experience to my friends for the holidays!

Considering the pasta class - any tips?

I’m thinking about signing my partner up for this pasta-making class at the brewery. He loves cooking but has never made pasta before. Is it beginner-friendly? What if we can't make it on the scheduled day? Any advice would be great!
