Build Your Water Setup

Follow these three steps to get cleaner, tastier coffee at home.

Step 1: Understand Your Water

Measure your water’s hardness (GH) and alkalinity (KH) with simple drop kits, and use a TDS meter to quickly check total dissolved solids. This baseline helps guide your next step.

Step 2: Improve Your Water

Use a filter (carbon, ion-exchange, or RO) to remove chlorine, odors, and excess minerals that mute flavor.

Step 3: Add Minerals When Needed

For RO or very soft water, add balanced minerals (like magnesium/calcium) to hit coffee-friendly targets.
