The story

Sugarcane Decaf

More from Code Black Coffee Roasters →

This sugarcane decaf coffee has gone through a completely natural decaffeination process. The process at this plant uses ethyl acetate derived 100% sugarcane mixed with mountain water.

Sugarcane grown at origin is a key element in the production of ethyl acetate, naturally found in food. It is biologically derived from the fermentation of sugarcane mixed with acetic acid. This solution is used to soak the coffee, acting as a natural solvent to extract the caffeine. The solution is then steamed away, with the evaporation point of ethyl acetate occurring at 70 degrees celsius.

The beauty of the Natural EA process is that it helps preserve most of the original flavours of the coffee while adding fruity notes and some complexity to the cup.

This lot is made up of coffee from 50 smallholders in the Huila region of Colombia.

Solid decaf

Good decaf, little bit juicy, a reasonable coffee on its own but also not so interesting it can't be mixed in half-and-half with a regular coffee to halve the caffeine and still appreciate some of the flavour of that.

Tasty!

Unlike other decaf beans, it was freshly roasted. I liked the fact that its roasting level is not too dark. It has a good fruity kick, which I really enjoy.

Aeropress preferred

First time making decaf coffee roasted for filter. The pour over didn't go well, getting clogged very quickly by the fines. Not sure if a better grinder would help, but I think the decaf process makes the beans a bit more brittle. The aeropress worked well after some dialling in and I achieved a pretty good cup from there.

Keep exploring
