„A great selection of green beans, including decaf and organic. Not just beans, but they also sell lots of equipment and gadgets.“

„Flavour-charged water circulation is unique to the Swiss Water process and prevents most of the flavour compounds within the beans from dissolving during decaffeination, whilst at the same time the caffeine from the beans is absorbed into the surrounding liquid." So far, so wet. "We then use a series of activated carbon filters to remove all the caffeine from the flavour-charged water, and it can be used again for the next batch of beans. It's a remarkably efficient process, and an expensive one, not least because of the strict caffeine monitoring involved." So, how are other coffees decaffeinated, then? "Typically, coffee is decaffeinated through a variety of more chemically-reliant, severe processes involving substances like Methylene Chloride, Supercritical Carbon Dioxide or Ethyl Acetate.“

„Why yes, as a matter of fact, you do. When you pull out your supply of green decaf beans the physical differences between regular and decaffeinated beans is striking. Compared to the unprocessed beans, which are plump and green, the decaf appear stunted: and shriveled, with a brownish tint, almost as if they were already roasted. What path have these beans traveled to lose that component called caffeine, and take on this striking difference?“

„Researchers say they have genetically engineered coffee plants that have 70 percent less caffeine than usual in their leaves. The crucial question for brewing coffee - whether beans from those plants will have less caffeine - won't be known for three to four years when the plants mature, said study author Shinjiro Ogita.“

„I suppose that you could substitute decaf. beans, but I think that would defeat the purpose of the candy.“
