Using a water concentrate such as this is so underrated when it comes to playing with the different variables in your coffee. Typically the focus is on beans, grind size, equipment, and preparation methods (puck prep, pouring technique, etc). Water is rarely thought of, outside of what type of filtered water to use, so when I was given the opportunity to try this I was excited to see what affect it would have on my coffee. And I have to say, it definitely did not disappoint. I noticed right away that my espresso tasted more lively and fruity, thanks to the water bringing those lesser tasting notes to the front and really highlighting the flavors I couldn’t taste before. I also tried it with my pour over and really enjoyed the taste as well.
I highly recommend giving this a try and letting the results speak for themselves. This is one part of your coffee that you don’t need to spend the time perfecting, like you have to do with other variables, such as grind size or distribution technique. You just add your water to the included bag, put in a measured amount of the hardness and buffer liquids, and you’re ready to go. You won’t take water for granted anymore after using this, I know I don’t.
