What Are Decaf Espresso Beans?

Decaf espresso beans are coffee beans that have undergone a decaffeination process to remove at least 97% of their caffeine content. This means they contain about 2 to 5 mg of caffeine per shot, compared to 63 mg in a regular espresso, making them suitable for those limiting their caffeine intake. Roasters select specific beans for decaf espresso blends to achieve a rich flavor profile. These beans are roasted longer and darker to enhance their intensity for espresso brewing. While decaffeination can slightly alter taste, decaf beans retain much of the original flavor. Decaf espresso beans are suitable for all brewing methods, including drip, pour-over, and cold brew. They perform well in lattes, cappuccinos, and other espresso-based drinks, maintaining balanced flavors.

Colipse's Decaf Espresso Blend features 100% Arabica beans sourced from South America, cultivated at altitudes between 1,300 and 1,800 meters above sea level. These beans undergo the Swiss Water® process, a meticulous method that removes 99.9% of the caffeine without compromising flavor. To fully experience the spectrum of its aroma, flavor, aftertaste, acidity, sweetness, and mouthfeel, we recommend brewing Decaf Espresso Blend using espresso machines, Moka pots, French presses, or cold brew methods.

How Do They Make Decaf Espresso Beans?

Decaf espresso beans are made by removing caffeine from green coffee beans before roasting them to a dark roast, ideal for espresso. Specialized facilities, not roasters, remove caffeine from the beans using methods like the Swiss Water Process, the methylene chloride process, the ethyl acetate process, or CO2 extraction before roasting. These facilities then sell the decaffeinated green coffee beans to roasters, who roast and blend them according to their desired flavor profiles.

The best decaf espresso beans are made using chemical-free methods like the Swiss Water® Process and carbon dioxide process, which preserve the natural flavors of the coffee while effectively removing the caffeine. Each of these two processes aims to retain flavor while removing caffeine until 0.01% is left. The decaffeination process is regulated, but the final caffeine content can vary slightly based on the method used.
