Espresso vs Classic Profile

The Espresso Profile is specifically formulated to match the ideal mineral content for espresso extraction and it is ideal for use with high-end espresso machines and specialty coffee enthusiasts.

On the other hand, the Classic Profile is designed for use with manual brewing methods such as pour-over, French press, and Aeropress and it is ideal for people who enjoy home brewing and want a consistent taste with different brewing methods. Both Profiles contain a balanced ratio of calcium, magnesium, and bicarbonate to help bring out the full flavor and aroma of the coffee beans. 

FAQ

What is Third Wave Water made of?

Transform your coffee experience with Third Wave Water's mineral blend! Combining the perfect ratios of Magnesium, Calcium and Potassium along with just a hint of Bicarbonates - but no Chlorides. Just add one sachet to distilled or reverse osmosis water for delicious brews that take flavor to the next level!

What does Third Wave Water do?

Third Wave Water puts the perfect minerals in place to enhance and enliven every sip. Without these essential elements, water would just pass through coffee grounds without picking up any flavors as intended by roasters — resulting in a less than stellar brew that could be bitter or lack flavor altogether.

Is it good to use distilled water in espresso machine?

Using distilled water in an espresso machine is not recommended. While distilled water is free of impurities and minerals, it also lacks the minerals that are necessary for optimal espresso extraction. Espresso extraction relies on a balance of minerals in the water, such as calcium and magnesium, to help extract the full flavor and aroma of the coffee beans. When using distilled water, the water is too pure which leads to under-extraction and a flat-tasting espresso.

For best results, it is recommended to use water that is specifically formulated for espresso machines, such as Third Wave Water's Espresso Profile, which is designed to bring out the optimal flavors in specialty coffee.
