Third Wave Water is an award-winning company that provides in-line filtration systems and water enhancement products. In the world of specialty coffee, the company is best-known for its line of mineral blend sachets formulated specifically to optimise and enhance coffee extraction.
Third Wave Water offers a handful of different mineral blend profiles balanced for specific roast levels and brewing types. Each profile is composed of a mixture of sodium, magnesium and calcium in optimal ratios for brewing coffee when added to distilled water, which improves its taste generally and specifically optimises its pH and TDS (total dissolved solids) for coffee extraction — here’s a detailed explainer for the chemistry enthusiasts. Third Wave Water also minimises limescale buildup, so it protects and extends the lifespan of your kettle, espresso machine and other brewing equipment too.
