Water Quality Matters
Coffee is about 98% water, so maybe we should all just collectively vow to pay a little more attention to the water we’re brewing with. In all seriousness, though, you might be surprised to learn how much the quality of your water affects the taste of your coffee. If you want to see for yourself just how dramatic the difference can be – try brewing the same pour over with distilled water, bottled water/well filtered water, and tap water. The results may shock you. As for your the taste of your espresso, and the longevity of your espresso machine, we recommend using one of the following options:
- Third Wave Water packets + distilled water
*NOTE: Please do not use distilled water without an additive like Third Wave Water in your espresso machine.
