It is carried out by Descamex in Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe specific advantage is: the coffee is decaffeinated in the country of origin and not after transport to Europe. The procedure: the beans are steamed and softened, the caffeine transfers into a saturated, caffeine-free solution, is filtered out over activated carbon, and the beans are then dried and polished. Because the solution remains saturated with the flavor-bearing compounds, these are hardly lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOur starting recipes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDecaffeinated beans are more porous and extract faster.
