ASOCIACIÓN CAFÉ DEL FUTURO PROJECT
WASHED DECAF (C02) l GRADE 1 | SHB+ | ORGANIC

This coffee comes from the Asociación Café del Futuro, to which over 600 farmers belong. At the beginning of the water decaffeination process, the silver skins are loosened with steam and removed in an air stream. The water-soluble substances, including caffeine, are then extracted from the raw coffee beans with water. The caffeine is removed from the resulting solution using activated charcoal. The decaffeinated solution is then reintroduced to the partially dried beans. The final drying step ensures that the moisture content of the coffee beans is restored to its original level. The decaffeination process using water is organic certified.
