APAX LABS x MOTORS COFFEE

Clarity – Florals – Terroir Expression

Apax Lab has joined forces with Motors Coffee to bring you a collaborative mineral profile in a 20 mL format.

Inspired by Motors Coffee’s role in redefining Parisian specialty coffee, this limited-edition profile reflects a shared passion for precision, curiosity, and pushing the boundaries of flavour. Known for highlighting bright, expressive coffees from leading roasters around the world, Motors continues to elevate the coffee experience through innovation.

This MOTORS x APAX LAB profile is designed to highlight terroir, enhance clarity, and unlock vibrant floral notes. The mineral balance allows each cup to express the coffee’s true origin and complexity with precision and transparency.

Created in collaboration with Nemo Pop, this limited-edition mineral concentrate replicates the exact water profile used during his world-winning routine. Designed to deliver a sweet, structured and velvety cup, this profile enhances mouthfeel while maintaining clarity and controlled acidity.

Developed during months of preparation and refinement, this recipe became the foundation of Nemo’s winning approach: a cup that feels round, balanced and expressive from the first sip to the finish.

What This Profile Brings

• Heavy, round mouthfeel
• Enhanced sweetness and balance
• Clear flavour definition
• Smooth, controlled acidity

The result is a cup profile that feels rich, sweet and structured, while still allowing the coffee’s origin character to shine.

Lucid [2.1] is a mineral concentrate developed to sharpen aromatic clarity and brightness in the brews of light roast coffee.

A light roast shows what it's made of in the details you can taste past the surface: the fruit, the florals, the fine acidity that either comes through clean or gets lost in translation. Water plays a larger part in that outcome than most brewers give it credit for. Lucid [2.1] is a mineral concentrate designed to work with a clean, expressive, bright roasting style, sharpening the aromatics and the finish rather than covering them up.

A Collaboration with APAX LAB

Lucid [2.1] was co-created with APAX LAB, an Australian company that designs high-precision mineral concentrates for coffee. Their work centers on isolating the mineral ratios that shape how aroma and acidity present in the cup, then concentrating them into a form that's simple to dose and easy to repeat.

Paired with TANAT's roasting approach, Lucid [2.1] was tuned to bring out what a bright, expressive light roast is built to show: clearer aromatics, elevated brightness, and a more refined finish. The result is a cup that reads as clean and precise, without asking the brewer to change anything else about how they already brew.

How to Use

Shake well  before use, so the concentrate is evenly mixed.

Dose per cup  add 1 to 2 drops to a cup of freshly brewed coffee, about 200 ml.

Water Remineralization

Lucid [2.1] can also be used to remineralize brewing water directly. Add it to distilled water at a rate of 1.5 to 2.5 grams per liter, ahead of brewing, for a version of the same clarity built into the water itself.

What's in the Box

Lucid [2.1] Mineral Concentrate x 1  bottle size TBC, confirm with supplier before publishing.

Ingredients: Water, magnesium chloride, magnesium sulfate, magnesium citrate, potassium chloride, potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate.

APAX LAB developed this mineral concentrate with specific challenge in mind: a profile that supports light roasts rather than working against them. The result is a cup with more brightness, better structure, and a clearer read on what the coffee is actually trying to say.

A Collaboration with MOK Coffee

This profile was created with MOK Coffee, a specialty roaster based in Brussels known for expressive light roasts and clean, precise flavor profiles. APAX LAB worked directly with MOK to build a mineral composition suited to the roasts MOK is known for: coffees where clarity and origin expression matter more than heavy body or roast character.

The goal was balance. Light roasts can taste thin or sharp when the water chemistry isn't dialed in, and they can taste flat when it's ignored altogether. This concentrate is formulated to sit in between, adding lift and structure without masking what the coffee already does well.

What This Profile Brings

• Brightness and lift: A more vibrant, lifted cup profile that lets acidity and florals come through cleanly.
• Balance and structure: Improved overall balance, with more definition between the coffee's different flavor layers.
• Texture and mouthfeel: Added body and mouthfeel, so a delicate cup doesn't taste thin.

How to Use

Shake the bottle thoroughly before use. Add 3 to 4g/L of mineral concentrate directly into your brew water, or add 1 to 10 drops directly into a 200mL cup of coffee, adjusting to taste. For the most control over remineralization, use demineralized water as your base.

What's in the Box

• MOK x APAX LAB Mineral Concentrate, 20mL bottle x 1

Ingredients: Water, magnesium chloride, magnesium citrate, calcium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium chloride, potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate, silica.

All Profits of this product goes towards supporting Differente Coffee. DIFFERENTE x APAX LAB was designed for their coffees, their roasting philosophy, and their vision of showing the best version of Colombian coffee.

A Collaboration with DIFFERENTE COFFEE

DIFFERENTE COFFEE, founded by Carlos Escobar, is known for its deep connection to Colombian coffee, thoughtful roasting philosophy at origin, and commitment to showcasing the best specialty coffee and micro-lots from Colombia.

Carlos, World Brewers Cup 3rd place 2025, comes from a producer family. Carlos didn't set out to build a brand. He set out to start a conversation. Because coffee was never meant to be ordinary. In Carlos's hands, it tastes of sun-ripened fruit, of delicate florals, of real chocolate, not a descriptor on a bag, but a lived, honest experience in the cup.

Created exclusively with DIFFERENTE, this APAX LAB custom mineral profile is designed to support and elevate Colombian coffees. Developed to enhance sweetness, roundness, texture, and balance, this concentrate helps bring more harmony and depth to the cup without overpowering the coffee’s natural expression.

More sweetness.

More texture.

More balance.

More of what makes exceptional Colombian coffees so special.

What This Profile Brings:

A mineral concentrate calibrated to match Terres de Café's coffees, drop by drop.

The water you brew with carries as much information as the coffee itself. Minerals shape how sweetness lands, how acidity resolves, and how texture sits on the palate, often before a coffee's own character gets a fair hearing. This concentrate was developed to close that gap, giving Terres de Café's coffees a water profile built specifically to draw out what's already in the cup.

A Collaboration in Precision

Terres de Café is a French specialty coffee roaster, known for refined sourcing, responsible agriculture, and coffees built around brightness, structured sweetness, and an elegant, coating mouthfeel. Matching that profile consistently depends on the water it's brewed with, which is what led to this collaboration with APAX LAB, a lab focused on precision water design for coffee.

The result is a concentrate developed specifically to match Terres de Café's coffees: engineered to reveal brightness, lift sweetness, and support a coating texture, so each coffee can express its full aromatic range. It functions less like a water treatment and more like a seasoning for coffee, giving you a tunable way to adjust the brew, whether that's mixed into your brewing water ahead of time or added straight into the cup.

What the Concentrate Brings

• Brightness and clarity: Lifts liveliness in the cup and sharpens the definition between flavor notes.
• Refined sweetness: Supports a rounder, more structured sweetness rather than a flat or thin one.
• Silky, coating mouthfeel: Adds body and texture that carries the coffee's flavor further across the palate.

How to Use

Shake the bottle thoroughly before use. Add the concentrate to your brew water at 3 to 4g per liter, or add it directly into a brewed cup: 1 to 10 drops per 200mL is the standard range. Demineralized water is recommended as the base, since it gives you the most control over the remineralization process. The concentrate is not intended for direct consumption on its own, and it should not be used inside espresso machines.

Ingredients: Water, magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, magnesium citrate, silica, sodium chloride, potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate.
