Sugarcane Decaf

Decaf that does not taste like a compromise. The caffeine is removed at origin using ethyl acetate made from fermented sugarcane, and the green coffee arrives with its sweetness intact.

About this coffee
Decaffeinated beans are more porous and roast faster, so we start the drum cooler and shorten the development time. Roast it like a regular coffee and you get something flat and papery.
About 97 percent of the caffeine is removed, which is the usual figure for this process. It is not zero, but it is low enough for an evening cup.
How we brew it
Treat it like the Huila: 1:16 on filter, or 18 g in and 40 g out on espresso, a few seconds faster than you expect.
