If you’ve ever switched to decaf for the sake of your health, sleep, or sanity—good call.
But here’s the catch: most decaf coffee is made using chemical solvents that you’d never knowingly put in your body.
The caffeine may be gone—but those chemicals? They might still be in your cup.
☠️ The Hidden Chemicals in Most Decaf
Let’s talk about how coffee becomes decaf.
Conventional methods use solvents like methylene chloride or ethyl acetate to extract caffeine. These chemicals are effective and cheap—but they raise major red flags.
Methylene chloride is a chemical also used in paint removers. While it’s approved in trace amounts for decaf, it’s been linked to serious health concerns.
Ethyl acetate can be “naturally derived,” but is often synthetic—and still a solvent.
The worst part? These processes can leave behind residues and strip away much of the natural flavor and character of the bean.

☕ Bonus: What’s Really in Most Flavored Coffees?
Here’s another thing most people don’t realize: many flavored coffees use artificial flavorings made in a lab, often from petroleum-derived compounds. These can include undisclosed solvents and preservatives that don’t belong in your mug.
We think there’s a better way.
Our flavored coffees are made with organic, plant-based extracts from real ingredients—like hazelnuts, vanilla, and cocoa. Never artificial. Never sketchy. Just clean, craveable flavor you can trust.
