Water that truly makes the coffee
Optimizing water for machine conservation and coffee aroma.
Ideally, a cup of coffee is 100 per cent indulgence. However, a cup of coffee is made of up to 98 per cent water. Good reason for using not only the best coffee beans to prepare the coffee, but also the best water. This is a real challenge, as water is not just water.
A cup of coffee is made up of 98 per cent water.
It has different qualities and compositions, depending on where it comes from. That is why we defined a clear goal for the development of water technologies for WMF coffee machines: the best possible water.“ Best possible” means the best water to protect the machine from limescale and to reveal the fine coffee aromas according to all the rules of the art. To provide the best possible protection for the machines, the water filter systems are of modular design; that means that water cleaning and preparation takes place in several steps, or filter stages. The particle filter collects solid components such as rust and sand. The activated carbon filter stage removes off-flavours and chlorine from the water. The next filter stage is the centrepiece: it removes calcium from the untreated water, preventing the formation of limescale in the machine.
Let ' s take the WMF water filter as an example of the best possible water preparation. It is designed to provide reliable limescale protection for coffee machines.
