FLAVOUR

Experience full flavour without the caffeine. FLOW Mellow Decaf is a perfectly balanced blend that combines cocoa notes with subtle hints of plum and red apple. Thanks to the combination of beans from Uganda and Mexico, the coffee has a dense, sweet base with a light fruity accent that sneaks up on you.

An ideal choice for those who want to enjoy a rich, sweet coffee without caffeine. A great option for any time of day, especially as an everyday pour-over that can be easily prepared in a drip coffee maker. For those who enjoy experimenting, it also brings plenty of joy when brewed manually, allowing even more flavour nuances to shine through.

PROCESSING

The decaffeination process used for our beans is based on two natural and safe methods: CO₂ Washed and Mountain Water Washed. Both techniques remove caffeine while preserving the integrity of the bean and the full spectrum of its natural aromas.

In the CO₂ Washed method, green coffee beans are exposed to carbon dioxide under high pressure. CO₂ acts as a selective solvent, binding caffeine molecules without affecting the compounds responsible for the coffee’s flavour and aroma. After the process is complete, the CO₂ is released and the caffeine separated, making this method completely safe, clean, and environmentally friendly.

The Mountain Water Washed method, on the other hand, uses pure water from mountain sources. The beans are soaked under controlled conditions, which opens their structure. The water is then circulated repeatedly, washing out the caffeine through a natural difference in concentration. After the process, the beans are carefully dried to restore the proper moisture level.

Both methods preserve the authentic character of the coffee, delivering a full, natural taste — without caffeine.

BREWING

The density of decaffeinated coffee differs slightly from that of caffeinated coffee. It’s worth using a little more to enhance mouthfeel. Use 18.5 g of coffee, ground at 19 clicks on a Comandante grinder. Pour water at 98°C according to the following schedule:

0:00 – 50 ml

0:30 – 120 ml

1:00 – 180 ml

1:30 – 240 ml

2:00 – 300 ml

Finish with a gentle stir.
