Green coffee is prepared and decaffeinated through one of several methods before it lands on our green coffee catalog. We typically offer Swiss Water Process® and sugarcane ethyl acetate (EA) coffee, both of which are naturally chemical-free. Because the decaffeination process weakens the physical composition of the beans, it leads to changes in the expected roast behavior of coffee. Check out our best tips and tricks to roasting decaf coffee in our Coffee Library.
As with all decafs, remember they roast faster and have the propensity to get away from you and end up darker than you expected. So attend to the roaster and stop the roast manually if possible to get it just right. Roast preference with espresso is up to you. I personally prefer the lighter N. Italian roast -just a bit more than a Full City.
