Mineral Packs for Making Water for Coffee (Makes 125 Gallons)

I bought Coffee Water because it was cheaper than TWW. Even though I was skeptical that one size fits all. I mixed it into a gallon of distilled water and made myself a coffee a while after: I didn’t like it at all, it was salty with weird flavors. Maybe I just hadn’t let it release the gas and mix fully, because the next day I used it with a moka pot and then a French press, using with a mix of medium and dark roast, the coffee turned out great—no bitterness or acidity, yet still punchy and flavorful.

This mineral mix is just so good. I'm using it to mineralize 4L jugs of RO water, and resulting TDS is 134ppm which is excellent for my preferences. This is a great all rounder mix of Mg, Ca and Na, ideal for any roast level, without being intrusive. With light roasts it just let the florals and fruity flavors shine, and with medium roasts body and sweetness are amazing. Never tried this mix with dark roasts. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking to improve the coffee experience and get the best out of quality beans. I've also tried TWW medium roasts and would say the biggest difference between these two is how you perceive the body in the cup, as TWW is specifically designed to enhance medium roasts, making it bit fuller and heavier, but CW taste is just better IMO. Sweetness, body, aftertaste, everything just perfectly balanced. Both options are superb, don't take me wrong, but CW is less specific and works well with a wider range of beans.

I much prefer this to TWW. I can still taste the coffee with this and it protects my machine since we use RO water in our home. With TWW, my coffee tastes muted and similar to diner coffee or Keurig. I think TWW concentrates their packets with more than you need, so I've seen recommendations that you have to use half the packet to get the right results. Coffee Water gives me better results right out of the box and it is so much more cost effective if you buy the 125 gallon version. I drop these packets into a 5 gallon water jug, fill with RO water, and use a battery operated pump. I think this pack will last me nearly a year, so super happy I found this product. Coffee Water also has a pretty cool story about how they came to be on their website if you're interested. I like to research anything I put in my water to make sure it's legit and I feel good about using this product after seeing all the research and time that went into its creation.

My husband drinks his coffee black and finds this product really good for providing a more smooth drinking experience. He likes it a lot and plans to reorder. I drink my coffee with milk and couldn’t really discern a taste difference. But - given my guy’s experience - I will reorder this product.

I think this really makes the coffee taste great.

Firstly, if someone told me a few years ago that I'd be writing a review for packets of minerals to make my yuppie pour-over coffee taste a bit better, I'd spit out my Starbucks. However, here I am, tell whoever is reading this that it does, in fact, make your imported once passed cat poop coffee taste somehow better. I mix one pouch from each mineral pack into a gallon of distilled water and shake it up. It's best if left overnight to actually diffuse in. It literally takes any chemical taste from tap water out and removes some bitterness just like adding saline to a cocktail. I love this stuff. While expensive, there's enough for probably a year worth of coffee.

I found it very salty/bitter/gross. I previously hated TWW (trying a whole packet, and then half packet) so I went with 30% each packet this time (measuring it by weight on my coffee scale) mixed in a gallon of distilled water. I shook the ever loving heck out of that water, for minutes, and there were still fine floating particles. The final cup of coffee tasted extremely salty and bad. I will try again using 10-20% of a packet, and perhaps stirring with a large spoon handle, but I’m not optimistic. Will update here if any future coffees get better.

There is a big difference in coffees taste.

This has replaced my own chemistry based antics, and provides good quality coffee water. In my view the perfect compromise between quality and price

I'm a heavy user of coffee water additives. I keep several jugs of distilled water and prep them with these to fill my espresso machine with. I've bought a few brands in my time, I tried this one out due to better price. It is certainly less convenient than others which only require 1 sachet, but as a heavy user who pre-preps several jugs at once - the price savings here are worth it. Once you use something like this you can't go back to tap water in you coffee Machine But you do need to use distilled water jugs else the effect is not great - so you have to factor that cost in too.

This is excellent and more economical (and comparable in quality) than Third Wave Water, if you are ready to mix 5 gallons at a time.

Absolutely amazing difference to my reverse osmosis water , I use it in a skuma water machine and it gets used for every drink hot or cold , everything is better and has a very nice mouth feel it's the biggest improvement I've ever had to my water

Love it, coffee tastes better, with none of the scaling! My only gripe is that I don't have a gallon jug to mix into lol
