In order for coffee to qualify as decaffeinated, it must have at least 97 percent of its caffeine removed.
Most processors use safe methods to remove caffeine. A few different techniques are available, and understanding them may help allay your concerns about coffee contaminants.
Coffee beans are decaffeinated by softening the beans with water and using a substance to extract the caffeine. Water alone cannot be used because it strips away too much of the flavor. The goal is to extract the caffeine with
minimal loss of flavor. Substances used to remove the caffeine may directly or indirectly come in contact with the beans, and so the processes are referred to as direct or indirect decaffeination. Coffee beans are soaked in water to soften them and dissolve the caffeine.
The water containing the caffeine (and the flavor from the beans) is treated with a solvent, heated to remove the solvent and caffeine, and then returned to the beans. The flavors in the water are reabsorbed by the beans, which are then dried.
Often described as rich, medium bodied, silky in taste with slight fruity aroma, it is exceptional when roasted to perfection and perfect for consumption any time of the day. It has the perfect balance of body, aroma and flavor. It is further distinguished by its distinct smokiness and mild acidity.
