LIGHT & SWEET: Move Over Botox -- Training Bacteria To Flatten Caffeine - National Coffee Association ()

  „Bacteria, you see, can’t live without theophylline – a compound produced by caffeine breakdown in coffee and tea plants and, incidentally, used to treat asthma. Coffee plants synthesize caffeine very quickly, but break down theophylline very slowly. So, if bacteria are presented with caffeine, which they can’t use, they’ll naturally try to kick the living theophylline out of it.“

  „For best results for filter/drip, use a cone-shaped filter and a reusable mesh insert. * For great taste with less cafeine buy arabica coffee. It's slightly more expensive, but contains less caffeine than blends that combine arabica and robusta beans. * Roasted coffee beans start to lose some of their flavor within two weeks.“
