BWT & ALLPRESS ESPRESSO

Consistent Water Quality for Coffee Excellence

"James and Will have been super helpful—whether it's solving boiler issues or guiding us on filtration needs by location. The cartridge recycling scheme is also a fantastic way to cut down on waste." — Beatrix Veber, Allpress Espresso UK Ltd.

About the Company

Allpress Espresso is a New Zealand-founded coffee roastery based in East London. With a passion for quality, Allpress supplies coffee to wholesale customers across the UK, including cafés in Jersey, Devon, Brighton, London, the Midlands, and the North. BWT water filtration treatment cartridges are used not only in their partner cafés to ensure consistently great coffee but also in their own hot air roaster for optimal performance.

The Challenge

Water hardness and mineral content vary between regions, which can impact both the taste of coffee and the longevity of coffee equipment. Maintaining consistent water quality posed a challenge. Specific issues such as black coating inside steam boilers were also a concern and would require expert analysis and tailored solutions.

The Solution

BWT, through the support of James Shirley and Will Hinton, provided tailored advice and practical solutions for each unique site. From water testing to recommending the right filtration systems based on location, BWT helped Allpress ensure optimal water quality wherever their coffee was brewed. Their expert support also included addressing equipment concerns and offering environmentally friendly cartridge recycling; helping reduce waste sent to landfill.

The Result

Thanks to BWT, Allpress Espresso has been able to maintain high coffee standards across its entire wholesale network. The tailored filtration solutions protect coffee equipment, improve beverage consistency and support Allpress’s wider sustainability goals. They have also significantly improved the reliability and longevity of espresso machines across the network. The partnership has proven to be both reliable and forward-thinking.

With the installation of the new BWT systems at their sites, Allpress Espresso has fulfilled their business needs. BWT continues to maintain regular communication to ensure the customer is happy and any issues, if any, are resolved promptly.
