The Decaf Project Coffee Kit with James Hoffmann

Join James Hoffmann and Kaffa.no on a journey of discovery into the world of decaffeinated coffee. Experience how three different decaffeination processes affect the taste of good Colombian coffee.

Many believe that decaffeinated coffee is synonymous with dull and tasteless coffee. But the truth is, the decaffeination process can be an art form! This exclusive tasting kit, developed in collaboration with James Hoffmann, allows you to explore how three different methods transform the same Colombian coffee into unique taste experiences.

Dive into the world of decaffeination:

• Ethyl Acetate: This method uses ethyl acetate, a naturally occurring substance in fruits, to bind and remove caffeine. The result is often a clean and clear coffee taste with preserved aromas.
• Swiss Water: A 100% chemical-free process that uses water and carbon filters to remove caffeine. The Swiss Water method is known for producing a full-bodied and rounded coffee taste.
• Carbonic Maceration: This new and innovative method uses carbon dioxide under high pressure to extract caffeine. The result is a coffee with a distinct sweetness and fruity notes.

The tasting kit includes:

• Three variants of decaffeinated coffee and one untreated:
  • Untreated Colombian coffee (for comparison)
  • Ethyl Acetate processed
  • Swiss Water processed
  • Carbonic Maceration processed
• Informative tasting notes and brewing guide: Learn about the different decaffeination processes and how to best brew each coffee for optimal taste.
• Exclusive online forum: Join a global community of coffee enthusiasts. Share your tasting experiences, discuss with other participants, and ask James Hoffmann questions in a joint global tasting of these very coffees.
