Compromise caffeine not quality!

A deliciously bold decaf coffee, which uses the Swiss-water process to achieve effective decaffeination, retain flavour, and plus it’s good for the environment! We love to brew this coffee on those late night roasting shifts, when we know we need to sleep tonight, but we just love our coffee too much to go without!

For consistent results, we recommend brewing with measured inputs rather than estimating by eye. Always use a digital scale to weigh both your coffee dose and water. As a baseline, use a brew ratio of 60–70g of coffee per litre (1000g) of water. This range can be adjusted depending on the brewing method, water composition, and the specific coffee you’re working with. Control your variables, make small adjustments, and use taste to guide your final recipe.

Espresso

Consistency in espresso comes from working within the parameters of your equipment. Use the dose recommended for your basket (usually marked on the side or provided by the manufacturer) and keep it consistent. As a starting point, aim for a brew ratio of around 1:2 — for example, 18g of coffee yielding 33–35g of espresso in the cup. Target an extraction time of 22–30 seconds, with a brew water temperature between 93–95°C. From there, adjust grind size to control flow and use taste to fine-tune the result.

Swiss Water Decaf

Not all decaf is created equal. For us, the priority is flavour. We look for beans that are naturally sweet, structured, and lively so that even after decaffeination they keep their character and depth.

To achieve this, we use the Swiss Water Process, a gentle, chemical-free method that has been perfecting decaf since the 1930s. The process is simple but clever. First, green coffee is soaked in water to create a solution called Green Coffee Extract. This water is already full of all the soluble compounds from coffee, everything that gives coffee its sweetness, aroma, and body, except the caffeine.

When fresh beans are added to this solution, the caffeine leaves the beans into the water, but all the flavour compounds stay behind. Over time, the beans become decaffeinated while retaining their natural sweetness, structure, and complexity.

We source decaf with the same care as any other coffee, choosing lots that carry clarity, balance, and layered flavours. The result is a coffee that works beautifully on its own or in milk, and delivers the presence and depth you expect from any of our roasts.
