What is the Swiss Water® Decaf Process?

The Swiss Water Process, developed in Switzerland, is a natural, chemical-free way to decaffeinate coffee. Swiss Water boasts a process that is not only clean and natural, it also keeps the original flavor of the coffee intact.  The Swiss Water process starts by soaking green coffee beans in pure water to create a proprietary Green Coffee Extract (GCE). The GCE holds all the coffee’s soluble compounds. The extract is then passed through activated carbon filters to remove caffeine, leaving behind a flavorful, caffeine-free solution.  When new batches of green coffee beans are added to the GCE and soaked for 8–10 hours, the caffeine naturally moves out of the beans without stripping away their taste. The extract is continuously refreshed through carbon filtration, ensuring the beans keep their original characteristics.  Thanks to this careful process, Swiss Water decaf removes 99.9% of the caffeine while preserving the coffee’s original profile—acidity, flavors, and complexity. It’s a decaf that actually tastes like coffee, making it a great option for anyone looking to cut back on caffeine without sacrificing quality. Notably, decaf Colombian coffee processed in this way maintains rich notes and balanced acidity. For those seeking a cup with these attributes, decaf Colombian coffee is a wonderful choice. Learn more about how decaf coffee is made here.
