Its pH is alkaline, which on the palate reads as silky, slightly bitter.

- Is Loutraki hard or soft water?
- By its calcium and magnesium, Loutraki works out to 335 mg/L as calcium carbonate, which counts as very hard water. That is genuinely hard water, chalky on the tongue and quick to scale a kettle.
- Is Loutraki alkaline or acidic?
- Yes. Loutraki has a published pH of 8, on the alkaline side of neutral, where it drinks silky, slightly bitter. That comes from bicarbonate-rich geology rather than any additive.

Still boil and cool any water before mixing formula, and take feeding advice from your pediatrician rather than a water site.
