If you have RO water, you’re all set. The best drinking water will make the best water for coffee
If you have a reverse osmosis (RO) water filter system, you are already enjoying great tasting and healthy drinking water.
Unfortunately, due to its low mineral content, RO water is not the most efficient at extracting the full coffee flavor from the coffee beans.
To extract the flavor molecules optimally (which are primarily acidic), having certain positively charged mineral molecules will aid in drawing out the coffee flavor from the beans.
The presence of magnesium or calcium in the water assists in extracting the coffee flavor from the beans.
This process is comparable to attempting to remove oil from your hands using only plain water: while some oil can be removed, incorporating soap into the water significantly enhances the oil-removing capability.
Likewise, with positively charged minerals present in the water, you can extract up to 30% more flavor from the beans.
