How empirical water was created
In our 7 years of testing, we found that mineral waters from glaciers and springs interact most beautifully with coffee.
To reverse-engineer these natural mineral waters, we painstakingly emulate nature's process for dissolving limestone, i.e. calcium carbonate.
This yields record-low levels of chloride and sulfate impurities in the water, which is what makes empirical water so forgiving to brew with.
Then, we spent several hundred hours fine-tuning these mineral profiles specifically for brewing coffee (& tea).
Don't forget to grab The Discount so you can get more empirical water for 51% off.

Customer Reviews
Empirical Water Glacial version has quite substantially improved my coffee water. I have tried virtually every competitor out there. And I prefer the final product that this water produces. Hardcore baristas and hobbyist alike will enjoy their coffee more.
I was skeptical, initially, thinking that my RO water (which tastes great to drink) was also great for tea. But I was wrong; Empirical Water makes a huge difference to the quality of my tea! Give it a try!
I guess I always spent so much time stressing over coffee gear and technique and didn’t realize a majority of the cup is water. This plays a huge role in the overall taste. I tried cupping with four different kinds of water and both the Spring and Glacial profiles came out on top. Spring on the top for me. Do yourself a favor and get a sample, cup it with what you use now and see the difference.
The water delivered great and really sweet cups. I shall be ordering again!
I received the free sample of spring and glacial water from Empirical water in a Reddit giveaway. I absolutely loved what this water did to my coffee brew using V60 pour over. Ill definitely be buying more in the future!
Had a chance to try both water types of empirical water and thoroughly enjoyed each - more so than the mineral packets available.
Excellent water for coffee, highly recommend!
Overall, the water did enhance the flavor profile of the coffee I was brewing. I was having trouble highlighting the lavender notes, but switching to the glacier water helped in resolving!
After struggling to find good water for tea, I eventually tried Arby's empirical water and I couldn't go back! This gives my tea a much clearer and better taste than any combination of filters or tap water I've tried, without the hassle of having to constantly buy large quantities of bottled water. It's such a simple way to make such a large difference, I'm delighted that this exists!
Was thrilled to find my concentrates came with a hardener, buffer and extraction booster. After following Arby's advice to start with 0 TDS filtered RO water I was able to get vibrant, clean tasting cups from light and UL roasts that had eluded me with other remineralised waters. Because the solutions are divided in this manner you can easily produce the profile you want with soft, low buffer water and still get the most flavor. Very happy!
