Our story
How the Swiss Water® Process works
Coffee is decaffeinated before it's roasted, while the beans are still green.
Water, not solvents
Some methods use chemical solvents to draw the caffeine out. The Swiss Water® Process, developed more than 40 years ago, uses only water, time and temperature.
Diffusion
It works by diffusion. The green beans are soaked in a Green Coffee Extract: water that's already full of the natural flavour compounds found in coffee, but without the caffeine.
Flavour stays put
Because the extract already holds those flavour compounds, the caffeine is drawn out of the beans while most of the flavour stays put.
Filtered and reused
The caffeine is then filtered out of the extract so it can be used again. The process takes around 8 to 10 hours.
Roasted and ground
The decaffeinated beans are then roasted and ground, just like any other coffee. That's why our decaffeinated coffee still tastes smooth, citrusy and nutty.
