APAX Lab KONFLUX [K] is a liquid water-mineral concentrate formulated to enhance mouthfeel, depth, and sweetness in brewed coffee. Developed as a competition-grade profile and recognized with the 2026 World of Coffee Best New Product Award in the consumable category, KONFLUX adds a smooth, coating texture to the cup without masking flavor. It is available in 20 ml (approximately 30 brews) and 100 ml (approximately 150 brews) sizes.
KONFLUX was originally created as a limited-edition mineral profile for the 2025 World Brewers Cup, where it proved itself under competition conditions. Since then it has supported winning routines at the Australian national level and the World AeroPress Championship. That track record matters for buyers who want a mineral profile that has been stress-tested in high-stakes environments, not just developed in a lab. When a recipe depends on consistent tactile results, KONFLUX has a documented history of delivering them.
KONFLUX is formulated to enhance perceived mouthfeel and depth, elevate sweetness, and create a smooth, round, coating texture, all without masking the coffee's inherent flavor clarity. For coffees that taste clean and expressive but feel thin or lack body, a few drops of KONFLUX can close that gap. The result is a cup that feels rounder and more indulgent while keeping the flavor profile intact, which is particularly useful for lighter roasts or delicate single-origins that read bright but not substantial.
KONFLUX is a liquid concentrate dosed a few drops at a time, making it straightforward to use whether you are dialing in a single V60 at home or running a café service. The 20 ml bottle covers approximately 30 brews, making it a low-commitment way to trial the profile. The 100 ml bottle covers approximately 150 brews and is the more practical choice for regular use or café settings. Both sizes share the same formulation.

KONFLUX suits baristas, home brewers, and café operators who want to add body, mouthfeel, and sweetness to coffees that taste clean but feel thin or lack tactile intensity. It is particularly well matched to competition preparation, recipe development, and any setting where consistent tactile results matter brew to brew.
KONFLUX is not a general-purpose water-mineral kit for building brew water from scratch; it is a single formulated profile concentrate. It is not suited to brewers looking to adjust individual mineral parameters independently or to dial in TDS and hardness from a blank-slate starting point.
KONFLUX is a concentrate used a few drops at a time. The 20 ml bottle is rated for approximately 30 brews and the 100 ml bottle for approximately 150 brews, which works out to roughly 0.65 ml per brew as a reference point. Exact dosing can be adjusted to taste; a user guide is available from APAX Lab for detailed instructions.
APAX Lab formulated KONFLUX to enhance mouthfeel and perceived depth, elevate sweetness, and create a smooth, round, coating texture. It is designed to add tactile richness and a sense of harmony without masking the coffee's flavor clarity, so the cup feels rounder and more indulgent while the flavor profile remains intact.
KONFLUX contains water, calcium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium chloride, silica, potassium bicarbonate, and sodium bicarbonate. It is a pre-formulated liquid concentrate; the mineral ratios are fixed by the KONFLUX profile and are not user-adjustable.
The 20 ml KONFLUX bottle covers approximately 30 brews and is a practical starting point for trialing the profile or for occasional home use. The 100 ml bottle covers approximately 150 brews and is the more economical choice for regular home use or café service. Both sizes contain the same formulation. A Slow Pour Edition 20 ml variant is also available.
KONFLUX was originally developed as a limited-edition profile for the 2025 World Brewers Cup. Since then it has supported winning routines at the Australian national championships and the World AeroPress Championship, and it received the 2026 World of Coffee Best New Product Award in the consumable category.
