The secured lots are then transported to a sugarcane processing centre in Colombia to be decaffeinated using a 'sugarcane' process. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Process\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sugarcane process, founded in Colombia consists of the following steps: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSugarcane is processed to produce molasses, which is further fermented to produce ethanol. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEthanol, produced by fermentation, is mixed with natural acetic acid, creating a solvent of sorts. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe coffee emerged in water, and mixed with the solvent which works to increase the coffee's water content and absorb the caffeine released from the coffee. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe beans are then further washed, steamed and dried, to an optimal moisture content suitable for shipping and roasting. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis process is successful in removing around 97% of the caffeine content. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a very chocolaty earthy-smelling green coffee, and a smooth sweet profile. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy we like it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis decaf coffee is a pleasure to roast, mostly due to the unique earthy, and coconut-like aroma of the beans. It has a delicious flavour, with good body, and a super smooth finish. A perfect coffee to be enjoyed at any time of the day or night. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote, due to the extended processing of Decaf coffees, beans often appear oily or sweaty in appearance, even when very fresh and delicately roasted. We assure you this is no result of roasting or quality defects, and the flavour of the coffee shall prove this. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Synonymous Coffee","offers":[{"title":"250g \/ whole beans","offer_id":49989515641115,"sku":"DCF2","price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ espresso","offer_id":49989515673883,"sku":"DCF2","price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ batch filter brewing","offer_id":49989515739419,"sku":"DCF2","price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ stovetop","offer_id":49989515772187,"sku":"DCF2","price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ plunger","offer_id":52296781529371,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"250g \/ aeropress","offer_id":52296781562139,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"250g \/ pourover","offer_id":52296781594907,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"500g \/ whole beans","offer_id":49989515804955,"sku":"DCF5","price":37.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ espresso","offer_id":49989515837723,"sku":"DCF5","price":37.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ batch filter brewing","offer_id":49989515903259,"sku":"DCF5","price":37.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ stovetop","offer_id":49989515936027,"sku":"DCF5","price":37.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ plunger","offer_id":52296781627675,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"500g \/ aeropress","offer_id":52296781660443,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"500g \/ pourover","offer_id":52296781693211,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 KG \/ whole beans","offer_id":49989515968795,"sku":"DCF1","price":68.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 KG \/ espresso","offer_id":49989516001563,"sku":"DCF1","price":68.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 KG \/ batch filter brewing","offer_id":49989516067099,"sku":"DCF1","price":68.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 KG \/ stovetop","offer_id":49989516099867,"sku":"DCF1","price":68.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 KG \/ plunger","offer_id":52296781725979,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 KG \/ aeropress","offer_id":52296781758747,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1 KG \/ pourover","offer_id":52296781791515,"sku":null,"price":22.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0754\/2295\/7851\/files\/05A87B13-6D7B-4D1A-9FFE-D71AF3205C65.png?v=1777243977","url":"https:\/\/www.synonymouscoffee.com\/products\/decaf-colombia-cauca-sugarcane-washed","provider":"Synonymous Coffee ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
