This innovative development in the world of coffee has the potential to revolutionize the way we brew and experience our daily cup. Apax Lab, an Australian startup, has launched a line of three liquid formulas designed to enhance specific qualities of coffee. The formulas, Tonik, Jamm, and Lylac, are added in droplets to water prior to brewing or directly to the finished brew, allowing consumers to tweak the characteristics of their coffee to their liking. According to Apax Lab inventor and co-founder Simon Gautherin, the addition of minerals has a significant impact on the taste of coffee, with the interaction between the minerals and taste buds being the key to the unique flavors. What's more, the formulas can be used with any brew method, roast level, or type of coffee, making them incredibly versatile. This is a game-changer for coffee enthusiasts and professionals alike, offering a level of customization and control that was previously unavailable. As Gautherin so aptly puts it, "We view minerals to water as seasoning is to food."
