Gringo Nordic The Sleepy Gringo Decaf 250 g Coffee Beans

Sleepy Gringo offers an exclusive taste experience without caffeine.

The coffee comes from farms in the Huila region of Colombia. Several of the farms are small, but together they have created a lot that gives a score of 84-85 points on a quality scale (so-called Specialty Coffee). This makes it different from 99 % of all decaffeinated coffee produced, due to both its high quality and its transparency.

DECAF METHOD

To remove the caffeine in the coffee, natural Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is used. The method takes advantage of the fact that carbon dioxide, when compressed, behaves both as a gas and a liquid and can thus bind to the caffeine.

In the method, the steamed green coffee beans are bathed in the compressed carbon dioxide and the caffeine is removed by filtration, in the same way as in the Swiss Water process. The flavor components are retained in the bean throughout the process, instead of being leached and then returned (as is the case in many other methods).

Through this natural method, the good taste of the coffee is retained, which is one of the reasons why Gringo Nordic believes that this method is the method of the future for producing decaffeinated coffee.
