Testimonials

  • Young - World Cup Tasters Champion 2023

    "The best way I can describe these mineral concentrates is like equalising your brew to hit the right bass, mids and trebles, taking each cup to reach a new high."

  • Anders - Home Brewer

    "Being able to transform the profile of your coffee post-brew is a game changer!

    Acidity a little muted? Add a few dashes of Tonik [1]. Lacking body? Drop in the Jamm [2]! These elixirs are to a barista what a spice rack is to a chef."

  • Julijan - Australian Brewers Cup Champion 2024

    "Having worked 15 years in the specialty coffee industry, I’ve finally found a water mineral product that actually makes coffee taste better, is easy to use and is intuitive. Each base recipe is already golden, but when you mix them is it opens up a whole other world of possibilities."

  • Lorena - Green Buyer

    "Apax Lab has provided me with the opportunity to explore the impact of mineral composition in water on coffee without overcomplicating things. I highly recommend if you’re curious about how much this affects the final cup and are starting on this journey. It is a game-changer! You can achieve incredible results, and it’s super easy to adjust and replicate as you can use it after brewing."
