As I mentioned in another post, I am currently brewing espresso with the following recipe: 1.5g of potassium bicarbonate + 2.8g of epsom salt, dissolved in 500ml of distilled water. Then, I use 25g of that solution to dissolve it in 975ml of distilled water. Right after making...

While my Cremina was away in the shop I was using my Cafelat robot as my daily driver. Usually I use the standard rpavlis water recipe with the Cremina. For the robot I just used water from my RO system. Now the Cremina is back and I'm using rpavlis water again I've noticed that...

I've been using the Homeland filter system for about a year. Really happy with nearly no water hardness.

I was looking at the BWT system from WLL and it adds back magnesium. Should I consider upgrading?

Hi, I've moved to a new home and town, and have different water than before.

I currently use a zerowater filter then add KHCO3 per rpavlis recipe and it works well. I'm also in the process of plumbing in my Londinium R, but basically just using an external reservoir of the...

In the morning when I check TDS the water is ~27-40ppm (~40ppm in the morning and after some usage...
