Lotus Water – Potassium

Lotus Water allows you to create water that enhances the desirable flavors of your coffee and mutes the unwanted ones. The two variables that have the biggest effect on your coffee, besides the coffee beans themselves, are the water you use to brew them. These are several liquid ingredients for adjusting the composition of water to help you conjure up that much-desired ideal cup of premium coffee. Potassium, or potassium bicarbonate, is a relatively sensitive component in water treatment for the preparation of filter coffee. Compared to the above hardness components, even small changes in this component can have a significant effect on your coffee. In most coffees, potassium creates a sharp but pleasant finish, however, in coffee processed by, for example, experimental methods, the taste can be too intense. (1 drop of concentrate in 450 ml of water provides 5 ppm of CaCO3 alkalinity.)
