COFFEE LIMIT Decaf Decaffeinated coffee beans 250g

Colombian decaffeinated cane coffee, a medium roast with creamy sweetness, rich chocolate notes and a subtle nutty flavor. This decaffeinated coffee, which uses the natural sugarcane processing process, retains its vibrant flavors and brings you a delicious cup that captures the essence of Colombian coffee.

Decaffeination using sugar cane – Sugar cane EA Decaf – is a method that you will encounter mainly with coffees from Colombia. It is the most gentle alternative currently for producing decaffeinated coffee.

Sugarcane is grown on a large scale in Colombia and is used as a “natural” source of ethyl acetate in this process. First, the molasses from the sugarcane is fermented. The ethanol that is produced during the fermentation is mixed with acetic acid. The result is ethyl acetate, which is used in the decaffeination process itself.

Meanwhile, the green coffee from which we want to remove the caffeine is prepared. The beans are steamed at low pressure so that their pores become larger and more permeable for the removal of the caffeine. The coffee is washed with water in which ethyl acetate has been dissolved. This compound replaces the caffeine in the molecular structure and it is thus released into the liquid.

The process is repeated several times until at least 97% of the caffeine is removed from the coffee. Once this limit is reached, the coffee beans are steamed again to remove any ethyl acetate residue. The steaming temperature is around 70 degrees, and even if there are traces of ethyl acetate left in the coffee, it can be easily removed during roasting.

The coffee is then dried again to the desired moisture content of between 10-12%. Drying often takes place in vacuum drum dryers.
