NOTES ON BREWING
Decaf coffees lack the structural integrity of regular coffees, due to the processing methods responsible for stripping out the caffeine. Therefore they tend to break down in the grinder differently, creating smaller particulate matter that can make draw down times too long and just generally cause over extraction. We recommend a coarser grind and a slight updose to bring out the best this coffee has to offer.
