LONDON,UK. May 8th 2025 — Bluewater, a global innovator in premium water purification and beverage solutions, will unveil its award-winning Café Station at the London Coffee Festival.
In partnership with UK distributor HTG, Bluewater will showcase its cutting-edge technology at Booth HP30, during the event, which runs from May 15th – 18th at the Truman Brewery.
Fresh off major debuts in Dubai and Houston, the Bluewater Café Station is transforming specialty coffee brewing. The unit has received multiple accolades, including ‘Best New Product’ at Dubai’s World of Coffee Expo and a 2024 ‘Best Buy’ rating from The Caterer Magazine.
Specifically engineered for the specialty coffee sector, the Café Station allows baristas to fine-tune the mineral composition of water, optimising flavour extraction for each bean type.
“The market response has been phenomenal,” said Dave Noble, Bluewater spokesperson. “We’re thrilled to introduce this innovation to the UK’s rapidly expanding specialty coffee scene.”
At the Festival, guest baristas such as Douglas Conde, Day Trip, Tom Sixsmith, Batch Baby, and Mathew Harvey-Ingram will demonstrate the Café Station in action. They’ll brew with Bluewater’s super-purified water and LiquidRock®, a patented Swedish mineral blend designed to balance hydration, boost taste, and enhance well-being.
LiquidRock® features a carefully calibrated calcium-to-magnesium ratio for optimal absorption and crisp flavour. Beyond taste and health benefits, it helps tackle hard water issues by preventing scale buildup—essential for preserving equipment. With three customizable mineralization levels –light, medium, and bold – baristas can match their water to the specific profile of their beans.
The London Coffee Festival draws over 22,000 visitors and features more than 260 top artisan brands, tastings, workshops, live demos, and industry networking. It’s a celebration of the UK’s booming coffee culture, with both trade days and consumer experiences.
With over 8,000 branded coffee shops and a market valued at £15 billion, the UK’s coffee industry is thriving. Despite not ranking in the global top 25 for per capita consumption, Brits now drink an estimated 98 million cups of coffee per day—a sign of growing demand for premium experiences.
“Water makes up more than 98% of a cup of coffee, yet it’s often ignored as a key ingredient,” added Noble. “The Café Station gives baristas complete control to brew with the purest, best-balanced water possible.”
