More About the Swiss Water Decaf Process
1) Warm Water Bath: The green coffee beans are soaked in hot water to dissolve the caffeine and extract the coffee solids and flavor compounds.
2) Flavour Filtering: The water passes through a specialized carbon filter that uniquely traps only the caffeine molecules while allowing all the natural flavor compounds to pass through.
3) Flavour-Loaded Water (GCE): This creates ‘Green Coffee Extract’ (GCE)—water saturated with flavor compounds but completely free of caffeine. The initial sacrificial batch of beans is discarded.
4) New Beans, No Caffeine Loss: A fresh batch of green coffee beans is soaked in this flavor-loaded GCE. Because the water is already saturated with flavor compounds, the new beans retain their full flavor profile while releasing only their caffeine into the extract.
5) Repeat Process: The filtering process is repeated until the coffee is 99.9% caffeine-free.
