Help Center | Third Wave Water

Third Wave Water minerals should be added to any kind of "empty water." This includes distilled water, deionized water, reverse osmosis (RO) water, or water from a Zero Water filter.

Do not use spring water, tap water, or other types of filtered water. These all can contain minerals and some chemicals that are not optimal for your equipment and are inconsistent.

What kind of water do I add TWW minerals to?

It depends on the type of filter your coffee maker or espresso machine has! If it is a carbon filter (like a Brita filter), then it does not need to be removed. 

If it is an ion-exchange filter (found in many Jura machines) or something similar (cationic filters found in some espresso machines like the Lelit Bianca), then it does need to be removed.

Should I remove my water filter?

Yes! We recommend using only the Espresso Profile for your espresso machine.

If your machine has an ion-exchange water filter in it (Lelit Biancas have this), then it will need to be removed as well.

Can I use this in my espresso machine?
