Bluewater “On Tour” Kicks Off in Los Angeles at Coffee Fest – Bringing Better Water (and Better Coffee) to the Barista World

Los Angeles, CA, August 17, 2025 – Great coffee starts with great water. That’s not marketing spin, that’s just reality – and Bluewater is hitting the road to prove it. We’re officially kicking off our U.S. “On Tour” series at Coffee Fest Los Angeles, August 22–23, 2025, at the Los Angeles Convention Center, showing professional baristas, café owners, and coffee geeks how purer, remineralized water can take flavor from “pretty good” to “oh wow.”

We’ll be easy to find – and even easier to taste.

• Booth 904 – Pro Coffee Gear × Bluewater

This is our main hangout. Michael Fleischman (our resident coffee–water obsessive) will be overseeing continuous pour-overs, discussing water chemistry as if it were his favorite sport, and showcasing our LiquidRock (LQR) dosing side-by-side taste demos. If you’ve never tasted coffee brews super-powered with perfectly balanced minerals, this is your moment.

• Roasters Row, Booth 448 – Be Bright Coffee × Bluewater

Over here, you’ll find Frank La, U.S. Barista Champion 2024 and Bluewater Brand Ambassador, pulling out all the stops with Be Bright Coffee beans and Bluewater-purified and mineral-enhanced water. It’s a one-two punch of coffee talent and water tech, and yes, you can watch (and taste) the magic happen.

“We’re all about safe water, clean flavor, and repeatable results,” says Michael (photo above). “Coffee Fest is the perfect place to show what happens when you take water seriously – without making it complicated.”

Frank agrees: “When the water’s right, the coffee just sings. You can dial in a recipe and know it’ll taste the same every time – that’s huge for baristas and cafés.”

The Bluewater Café Station is designed to give baristas complete control over the most critical ingredient in coffee – water. It delivers ultra-purified water on demand, leveraging the power of the proprietary Bluewater second-gen reverse osmosis SuperiorOsmosis system, then re-mineralizes it with precisely measured mineral blends tailored for brewing. That means cafés can lock in consistent taste, extraction, and aroma across every cup, regardless of the local water supply. It’s compact, built for busy service environments, and easy to integrate and service alongside espresso machines and brew bars. The Café Station has already earned industry recognition for its ability to elevate quality while cutting out single-use plastic bottles., including prestigious awards such as Best New Product at World of Coffee Dubai 2025 and being named a 2024 “Best Buy” by The Caterer magazine.

LiquidRock™ (LQR) is Bluewater’s patented mineral dosing innovation that takes this precision a step further.

Instead of pre-blended packets or guesswork, LQR uses stabilized mineral concentrates, dosed in exact micro-quantities, to create a repeatable water profile every time. Baristas can choose a recipe – for espresso, filter, or signature drinks – and know the water will hit the exact balance needed for optimal extraction. The result is not just better-tasting coffee, but a workflow that removes variables, saves time, and ensures customers get the same exceptional flavor in every cup.

Bluewater will have handouts (yes, you can take home a little vial of LQR magic), tri-folds explaining how it works, and two booths full of people who genuinely want to talk about your water. Whether you’re a seasoned baristawanting to super-power your brewing skills, a café owner looking to up your consistency, or just someone who loves good coffee, you’ll leave with something new to think about – and probably a smile.
