The Decaf Project: Our Most Ambitious Coffee Adventure Yet

We had the same coffee decaffeinated three ways — and you can try it!! This is our most ambitious project yet - and maybe our most exciting! Check out the links below to get involved.

And thank you, also, to CR3-Kaffeeveredelung M. Hermsen, Coffein Compagnie and Swiss Water Decaffeinated Coffee who have given us unprecedented access to their facilities.

There's a few comments regarding the lack of roasters in certain parts of the world - particularly Central and South America. You're right. We would have loved to have had roasters from there as part of the project, and we did try and get as many people interested in the project as we could - though there's always room for improvement. This project has been a step up in complexity from the previous tasting events we've done, and we've learned a lot of lessons from them. If we can make this event work, then any future coffee collaboration events like it will be trying to solve some of the issues that may have made this project unappealing to roasters - particularly those in producing countries.

We're one of the roasters - a speciality decaf roastery in the heart of Vienna, Austria ! We simply couldn't miss the decaf event of the century! It’s incredible what James and his team have achieved!

I appreciate all the effort you put into decaf. I take ADHD medication and have to avoid caffeine, but love the taste of coffee! Decaf has come a long way and I’m sure will get even better

DECAF EPISODE!!!! As someone who can’t consume much caffeine anymore, this is godsend. Love it!

i've been waiting for so long for a decaf episode that I got my anxiety in check and I am now able to drink regular coffee for the last 2 years

[joyc]

Holy smokes, honestly even if the coffee set is sold out people should check out some of these roasters. These small local roasters are doing some impressive things and I would have never found them otherwise.

This is so awesome ! My coffee-nerding journey started during the pandemic and i've been following James videos ever since. At one point in 2020 I started having random panic attacks because of caffeine (even if I just drank one cup of coffee per day). Since, I've only been drinking decaf and been feeling great. I've always bought delicious decaf from small roasters, but the choice was very limited at that time. Im happy to see that decaf is getting more attention and that there is way more variety nowadays. I've been waiting AGES!!! for James to dive deep into this, and this event and the videos that are coming make me sooo happy. Looking forward to it, thank you James :)

THANK YOU for putting resources in the decaf coffee. As a coffee lover who had to give up regular coffee, this is going to change the world I live in forever. Please continue advertising and exploring the decaf coffee!

[shotsfired]

As someone who has recently started taking ADHD meds and therefore had to stop having caffeinated drinks, this couldn’t have come at a better time!

[silpheedTandy]

oh wow, i had lost hope that the decaf video series would actually happen! yay, they're coming!
