Introduction


Decaf coffee has long been considered a subpar option for coffee lovers, with the misconception that it lacks the complexity, nuance, and deliciousness of regular coffee. However, as speciality coffee professionals, we want to debunk this myth and encourage coffee lovers to give our decaf range a chance. In this blog post, we'll explore the process of decaffeination, the reasons why people opt for decaf, and why Pablo and Rusty's Decaf should be your go-to choice.

The Decaffeination Process


Decaf coffee is made by removing the caffeine from the coffee beans while preserving the flavor and aroma. The most common decaffeination method is the Swiss Water Process, which involves soaking the beans in hot water to dissolve the caffeine and removing the caffeine from the water using activated carbon filters. Another method is the CO2 method, which involves pressurising carbon dioxide to remove the caffeine. Both methods result in a decaf coffee that retains the flavour and aroma of regular coffee.

Why Decaf?


There are many reasons why people choose decaf coffee. Some people are sensitive to caffeine and experience jitters, anxiety, or trouble sleeping after drinking regular coffee. Others simply enjoy the taste of coffee but don't want to consume caffeine, especially later in the day. Decaf coffee allows them to enjoy the taste and aroma of coffee without the side effects.
