Having learned of the swiss water decaffeination process, I wondered how some of the brands available in Sydney make their decaf.
- Campos use Swiss Water
- Grinders use Swiss Water
- Harris doesn’t say on their website
- Lavazza uses CO2
- Musetti - doesn’t say on their website
- Piazza D’oro appears to have a broken link on their site with their product information
- Primo use water processing (so does Caffe Di Stefano)
- Segafredo uses CO2
- Single Origin uses Swiss Water
- Toby’s Estate uses Swiss Water, and mentions some details on decaffeination process options
- Vittoria uses Swiss Water
Any suggestions for other brands that I’ve missed?

thanks Dave, you inspired me to find decaf using the swiss water method here (which i have at http://www.carolinacoffeecompany.com/coffee.asp)
also what do you know about decaf tea?
The one decaf tea that I’ve tried still seemed to have a high (for decaf) caffeine content, so I haven’t looked much further. I think people tend to ignore that tea has caffeine in it, so there’s not as much demand for decaf tea as for decaf coffee.
Hi David.
I’ve just done a bit of a search myself and then found your blog site.
