Description
Gringo Nordic Senza Decaf Espresso offers a full-bodied flavour without caffeine. Senza blends the finest decaffeinated beans to create a deep character with notes of chocolate, caramel, almond, and a smooth, fruity finish.
Decaffeination Method
Ethyl acetate is used in decaffeination because it is highly selective with respect to caffeine and can physically extract it from green coffee beans in a gentle, but targeted manner.
First, the green coffee beans are steamed to remove the silverskin and increase their water content, opening up their cell structure. The water-ethyl acetate-solution selectively extracts caffeine from the beans in several stages. Finally, steam is used to remove any remaining ethyl acetate from the beans, which are then dried to their original moisture content.
Ethyl Acetate is a natural component of sugar cane, coffee, and fruits such as strawberries and bananas, but is also produced synthetically.
