Decaf Coffee Uncovered: What Is It and How Is It Made?

🌻 This article is written by Yasumi Coffee, a local coffee roaster based in Singapore! We sell a wide range of roast-to-order single-origin coffees that are sure to delight your senses.

Coffee is the beverage of choice for many people worldwide. But not everyone wants or can tolerate the caffeine that comes naturally in coffee. This is where decaffeinated, or decaf, coffee comes into play. Decaf coffee allows you to enjoy the rich flavor and aroma of coffee without the stimulating effects of caffeine. But what exactly is decaf coffee, and how is it made? Let's explore.

Understanding Decaf Coffee

Decaf coffee is simply coffee that has undergone a process to remove most of its natural caffeine. It's worth noting that decaf coffee is not entirely caffeine-free. According to regulations by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), coffee labeled as "decaffeinated" must have at least 97% of its original caffeine removed. This means you might still get a small caffeine kick from your decaf brew.

The Decaffeination Process

The process of decaffeinating coffee involves several steps. First, the unroasted (green) coffee beans are soaked or steamed to soften them and open their pores. The goal is to prepare the beans for the extraction of caffeine.

There are several methods to extract the caffeine:

  1. Solvent-Based Process: The softened beans are rinsed with a solvent (usually ethyl acetate or methylene chloride) that extracts the caffeine while leaving other compounds largely intact. The solvent is then drained away, and the beans are steamed again to remove any remaining solvent.
  2. Swiss Water Process: This is a 100% chemical-free method. The beans are soaked in hot water to dissolve the caffeine. The water is then passed through an activated charcoal filter that traps caffeine molecules but allows other soluble compounds to pass through. This caffeine-free solution (known as "flavor-charged" water) is then used to wash new batches of beans, extracting caffeine but leaving much of the flavor compounds.
  3. Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Process: This method is primarily used for commercial decaffeination. Here, CO2 in a supercritical state (having properties of both a gas and a liquid) is used to extract the caffeine from the beans.

After decaffeination, the beans are dried back to their original moisture level and are then ready to be roasted.

Decaf Coffee: The Same Pleasure, Less Caffeine

Decaf coffee provides a solution for coffee lovers who are sensitive to caffeine or those who simply prefer to limit their caffeine intake. With advancements in decaffeination processes, decaf coffee today maintains much of the taste and aroma that coffee lovers cherish. Whether you drink it for its flavor, as a comforting warm beverage, or as part of a social ritual, decaf coffee ensures you can enjoy these pleasures without the side effects of caffeine.

I've tried different coffee subscription services before, and Yasumi is the best I've used. I make espressos at home, and their beans are excellent. I've had to ask for help with my subscription before and they were always very helpful and patient.

Updated review on 18/4: The support team has reached promptly to explain the delayed shipment. Mentioned that my shipment was delayed because I placed an order after their roasting date, which I find the explanation satisfactory. And I received my subscription of coffee yesterday. It tasted great. Excellent service recovery team Yasumi 👌 Earlier review on 14/4: My subscription is due for renewal in 1 day but my earlier order hasn't been received despite placing an order 1 week ago. I don't like to be charged for a renewal product when my earlier product hasn't been shipped out and received. I will consider changing my review when the management looks into this. I have cancelled my earlier subscription.

I do really love the YASUMI Coffee! It brings much much convenient for me, I have an espresso machine at home, so I could make a great cup of coffee everyday. Fresh grind the whole bean, fresh brew the double shot, fresh steam the milk, and then, a fresh cup of specialty coffee. I have order with YASUMI coffee since last year, which Im really happy with the fresh whole bean which deliver to my mail box everytime! and the teams are so cute that everytime will send you an email to inform you that your coffee is going to roast, going to deliver. And the other thing I like YASUMI is becuz they are very flexible which I could skip the slot when I need to travel. Appreciate a lot!

I ordered a trial size of Brazilian coffee beans, and it arrived the day after roasting along with 60g of Tropic Daydream. Surprisingly, I found that I liked the Tropic Daydream even more! The whole beans were incredibly fresh and fragrant even before grinding. When I tried an espresso with oat milk, it tasted just like a latte from a cafe, but at only half the price and with 100% freshness. Today, experimenting with a coarser grind resulted in a lighter coffee taste. The convenience of the coffee beans subscription is a bonus; I can enjoy different beans every 6 weeks, and refills come directly to my house.

I ordered a trial subscription. The package came fast and the beans were well packed (despite being unregistered mail). The additional 60g X'mas sample was a nice surprise as it was meant to be a 120g trial and I actually really liked it. Usually do pourover or espresso at home with a hand grinder.

Easy to use subscription website. Initial thoughts on the ethiopia beans for filter was that it was abit roasty, but after some dialing in it was really quite good, the blueberry notes were quite prominent. Coffee came with nice cards.

I bought their 250ml morning cup a few months ago. It is not worth the price. When it arrived, I could tell the quality wasn’t great. Coffee stains cannot be washed off or removed, and it looks terrible just after 1 month of usage. I’m very disappointed with the product.

Very quick response to my question that is accurately and clearly explained. The professionally designed online platform is customer centric and paid attention to details. I hope the coffee I’ll be receiving will be as good if not exceed my expectations. Pretty sure it will. Looking forward to my caffeine fix soon! Yes! Got my coffee earlier than expected. Got my caffeine fixed. Love the taste and can’t ask for more.

Signed up for the trial and only paid $0.99 for delivery. Received the coffee promptly after a few days in my letterbox. Packaging is SO cute and they even included tasting notes of the coffee beans sent! They even included a sample of another coffee bean for free :') Coffee beans were freshly roasted and smelt amazing when they arrived too :)
