Caffeine estimate

Approximately 2-15mg (240ml cup).

Well established — Decaf is not caffeine-free; regulatory decaffeination thresholds typically require removal of at least 97% of original caffeine, not 100%.

Brewing method

Made using V60 (pour-over). Grind: Medium.

Descriptive grind labels like this are illustrative starting points, not precise measurements — the same label can mean different particle sizes on different grinders. See the grind size guide for how to dial this in on your own equipment.

Steps

  1. Brew as with regular filter coffee, using decaffeinated beans.
