We wrote recently about decaf coffee and whether it is organic or not.

In our article Organic Coffee without
Caffeine we noted that the only
organic certified way to make decaf is the Swiss Water Process.
![Page 12: Organic Decaffeinated Coffee K Cups](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042723/5a662c7f7f8b9a214f8b5fcb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

The Swiss water method does not use solvents to decaffeinate coffee. It was invented 80 years ago but required decades for technical improvements to make it cost effective. The company that does this is in Vancouver, B.C. and their process for making decaf organic coffee is certified.
![Page 13: Organic Decaffeinated Coffee K Cups](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042723/5a662c7f7f8b9a214f8b5fcb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

To remove caffeine, coffee beans are soaked in hot water. The water passes through a large-pore activated charcoal filter with pore size such that larger caffeine molecules are trapped and smaller molecules (oils, antioxidants) pass through. The remaining water contains flavor elements but not caffeine. Then the first batch of caffeine-free beans is discarded.
![Page 14: Organic Decaffeinated Coffee K Cups](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042723/5a662c7f7f8b9a214f8b5fcb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Now new beans are soaked in the new flavorful but caffeine free water. Osmosis causes caffeine to leech out of the beans because of the difference in coffee concentration between bean and water. The flavor elements, antioxidants, etc. remain in the bean because there is not concentration difference between bean and water.

All batches are tested to guarantee
that their coffee is 99.5% caffeine
free. And decaf coffee made this way
is always labeled as Swiss Water decaf.

So if you are looking for organic
decaffeinated coffee in k cups look

Where Does the Coffee Come From?

Our favorite coffees are Colombian
Arabica and this includes when the coffee is decaffeinated.

Read our article about coffee from
Manizales, Colombia for a sense of
the culture and the quality of the coffee.
![Page 20: Organic Decaffeinated Coffee K Cups](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042723/5a662c7f7f8b9a214f8b5fcb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Manizales was founded in the mid-
19th century by 14 families who
moved into this mountainous region
specifically to grow coffee. They are
now known as the founders or Fundadores.
![Page 21: Organic Decaffeinated Coffee K Cups](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022042723/5a662c7f7f8b9a214f8b5fcb/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

The local upscale mall is the
Fundadores and a large local grocery
store is La 14 in reference to the
founders. Coffee culture is
everywhere and Manizales is the
home of the Colombian Coffee Growers Association.

There are large coffee roasting
companies everywhere but our focus
is on the small family operations. We
visited one such company recently.
Dad came from Tolima, Colombia a
generation ago and founded a tilladora.

This word translates as thresher in
Google but is the operation for
removal of the husk on the green coffee bean before roasting.
