Flavor-Enhancing Mineralization Packets

The 'Third Wave Water' Packets Improve the Taste of Coffee

— March 10, 2017 — Lifestyle
For those who want to make their home brew taste just as smooth as a cup from their local cafe, a company called Third Wave Water has developed a unique brewing solution. Instead of adjusting the flavor of the beans or the equipment used for brewing, the company focuses on the quality of the water being used.

Third Wave Water is a line of mineralization packets that work to improve the taste of coffee. To use the packets, users simply start with distilled water or water from a reverse osmosis system and then add the mineralization packets for the perfect blend of sodium, calcium and magnesium. This water can then be used for brewing the perfect cup of coffee.

Third Wave Water insists that its mineralization packets are key to creating the perfect cup by pointing out, "Coffee is 98% water, so don't ruin your morning creation with the same water you flush your toilet with."
Trend Themes
1. Water Mineralization - There is a growing trend in using mineralization packets to enhance the taste of beverages like coffee.
2. Quality Water Brewing - An emerging trend in the coffee industry is the emphasis on using high-quality water for brewing to enhance the overall flavor and experience.
3. Personalized Coffee Brewing - Consumers are increasingly seeking ways to personalize and fine-tune the brewing process to achieve the perfect cup of coffee, including using mineralization packets.
Industry Implications
1. Beverage - The beverage industry, particularly the coffee segment, can benefit from incorporating mineralization packets to offer a superior taste experience.
2. Water Filtration - Water filtration companies have an opportunity to develop innovative products specialized for improving the taste of beverages and cater to the growing demand for high-quality water in the brewing industry.
3. Home Brewing - There is a disruptive innovation opportunity for companies in the home brewing industry to create convenient and effective mineralization solutions for consumers who want to enhance their coffee brewing experience.
