It might seem absurd or
exaggerated, but water, with
its characteristics, preponderantly
influences the result
of the espresso, being that it
comprises about 90% of its
composition,
not to mention in filter coffee,
where it makes up 98% of it.
E' tempo di cambiare.
E fare ancora di più.
Investire in un sistema di trattamento acqua può sembrare oneroso, ma i benefici superano di gran lunga i costi sostenuti. Lavastoviglie professionali sempre efficienti, poca manutenzione e eliminazione del tempo utilizzato per lucidare posate, piatti e bicchieri.
Not all wateris the
same
The use of unfiltered water not only affects
the coffee you are preparing, but over time, it
could potentially damage the precious coffee
machine. Water with high carbonate hardness
can cause the formation of
limescale, while the high permanent hardness
can generate chalk deposits.
Untreated water
Untreated water contains high levels of sediments and could damage or obstruct the machine.

Soft water
Soft water contains
only small amounts of
calcium, magnesium and

Improve the taste
Every element dissolved in the water transfers it own particular characteristic,
soft, bitter, salty, and so forth. Finding the right blend of these substances creates
the perfect recipe for obtaining the best possible product, enhancing the
aromas and giving your drinks an attractive appearance.
After all, water is the main ingredient of any drink.
Treatment is
worth it
Mineral deposits, due to the hardness of the water, are the cause of
malfunction of the machines. Maintenance times increase and so do
management costs, in the long run, the damage caused becomes absolutely
relevant. Untreated water also leaves residue on glasses and cutlery,
giving an opaque look, and the impression that they are dirty.
And who would want to drink a bad coffee from a dirty cup?

treatment methods
Water treatment occurs mainly in three ways.
Water softener
The result one obtains through the use of the water softener is the elimination of the calcium Ca2+ and magnesium Mg2+ ions, which are responsible for the hardness of the water. In this way, one effectively prevents the formation of build-up of limescale that over time reduces the performance of the machines and causes their breakdown.
Decarbonization
The decarbonisation filters remove the carbonates of calcium CaCO3 and magnesium MgCO3. The use of these filters allows you to obtain a triple result, protection of the machines, drinks with tastes that are richer and fuller, and sparkling clean glasses, dishes and cutlery.
Reverse osmosis
Thanks to the very high degree of filtration that characterises reverse osmosis machines, it is possible to obtain water with very high quality characteristics. Passing through one or more membranes causes the water to be purified not only of the elements that determine its hardness, but also of all the contaminating substances, responsible, for example, of unwanted odours and flavours.

Coffee Products
Water is the main ingredient, that magical liquid that transforms ground coffee into espresso. Have you ever tried using water that was too soft, as if it were distilled? We’d get an evanescent cream. And water that is too hard? Too bitter, and with unpleasant tastes! A water with the right ratio of calcium, magnesium and carbonates, manages to take the aromas we want from the coffee, bringing them to the cup, so that we can have the perfect espresso.
