  • GET YOUR COFFEE TASTING ITS BEST!

    No water is the same. Between different purification processes and varying mineral contents, the search for the best water to brew coffee with can be a daunting task. That search is now over.

    The Espresso Profile is the water that you want to put in your espresso machine. Coffee is 98% water so using high quality water makes a big difference in your cup. Using Third Wave Water not only gives you more delicious espresso, but it also protects your machine from harsh minerals and chemicals. The Espresso Profile works with semi-automatic and automatic espresso machines from such brands as Breville, La Marzocco, Rocket and Rancilio, as well as manual espresso brewers and machines, like those from Leverpresso, Flair, and Wacaco.

    Just add one sachet of Third Wave Water to the appropriate amount of distilled or reverse osmosis water to achieve the perfect mineral combination and get brewing delicious coffee. Designed for optimal coffee flavour through a precise blend of Magnesium, Calcium and Potassium with just the right amount of Bicarbonates and NO Chlorides.

    • Each pack includes 12 sachets
    • Each 1 Gallon sachet treats 4 litres (1 gallon) of distilled or reverse osmosis water for a total of 48 litres per pack
    • Each 5 Gallon sachet treats 19 litres (5 gallons) of distilled or reverse osmosis water for a total of 227 litres per pack 
    • Blend of Magnesium, Calcium and Potassium
  • Using the 1 Gallon Sachets:

    • Use the mixed water to fill the reservoir of your espresso machine, coffee maker or kettle.

You won’t regret it!

I now realize that quality water is as important as quality coffee and quality coffee grinder.

Working well so far; tastes good, and theoretically better than tap water. But water wastage...

I have used about 20L/5G of Third Wave Water in my Rancilio Silvia so far. I confess that I have not done any side-by-side comparisons of taste, as it is a hassle to change out the water tank and get a consistent shot. However, I like the taste of my current shots, and I like knowing that this water is theoretically better for coffee. I have not experienced any issues, and my espresso tastes great. The only downside is one that is not really avoidable: I now spend a lot of time thinking about wasting this comparably expensive water. Now when I am purging the group head, temperature surfing, or thinking about decalcifying the machine, I am keenly aware that this water is more expensive and should be conserved as much as possible, which I wasn't worried about with filtered tap water. The solution was simpler with normal brewing: I have two kettles, one for third wave water and one for filtered tap water used to rinse filters etc. I am not aware for a comparable solution for my espresso machine. I suppose less water is required for espresso, so on a cost per cup basis, it may actually be comparable to brewing. I will probably continue to use third wave water for the time being, but especially if I can find a suitable way to either filter tap water, buy the water outright for cheaper, or make it myself, I will explore those options. This isn't really a problem with third wave water specifically, but an issue with more expensive water in espresso machines. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
