The Secret to a Perfect Cup of Coffee: Pure Water by Finken

What’s the key to a truly exceptional cup of coffee? The answer lies in the water! At Finken Water Solutions, we understand that water quality plays a crucial role in the flavor and consistency of every brewed cup. That’s why we were honored to be selected by Caribou Coffee to upgrade and optimize the water treatment systems in all of their retail locations. This ensures that every Caribou Coffee store serves consistently delicious coffee with the highest water purity.

Enhancing Coffee Quality with Advanced Water Treatment

Over the past several months, our dedicated Finken Water Solutions team has been hard at work installing Hellenbrand Water Treatment systems and Nimbus Reverse Osmosis (RO) systems in select Twin Cities Caribou Coffee locations. These state-of-the-art systems ensure that water is free from impurities, which benefits not only the coffee’s flavor but also the longevity and efficiency of store equipment.

Here’s how these systems make a difference:

  • Water Softeners – These systems remove water hardness, which enhances the taste of coffee while preventing mineral buildup in coffee machines and other equipment. They also help maintain cleanliness in sinks, faucets, ovens, countertops, and prep areas.
  • Reverse Osmosis Filtration – The Nimbus RO systems use advanced membranes to filter out chemicals, medications, and tiny pollutants that could otherwise affect the taste and quality of the coffee. This ensures a pure and crisp final product.

Efficient Installations Without Business Disruption

Understanding the importance of uninterrupted operations, our team schedules overnight installations to avoid any impact on daily business. Our goal is to complete two store installations per night, allowing us to finish ten locations per week efficiently and seamlessly.

Project Rollout & Expansion

  • The first phase of this large-scale project began in February 2015, covering 82 Caribou Coffee locations across central Minnesota.
  • Additional phases continue to roll out, with completion targeted for spring 2016.
  • As Caribou Coffee expands, Finken Water Solutions is proud to support new store openings, ensuring that every location benefits from the same high-quality water filtration and treatment systems.

A Strong Partnership for Pure, Delicious Coffee

Finken Water Solutions is proud to collaborate with Caribou Coffee in delivering an unparalleled coffee experience to customers. By ensuring consistent water purity across locations, we help maintain Caribou’s signature taste while protecting and enhancing the longevity of their brewing equipment.
