Our latest Swiss Water Process coffee is a delicious DCAF from Peru - a first for Cloud Picker! Junin is a region inland from Lima populated largely by rainforests. It comprises about a quarter of Peru's coffee production and is located further South than all of the coffee we have previously sourced from this country.

The Swiss Water Process first involves the production of Green Coffee Extract (GCE) which is created using a batch of coffee beans soaked in water. After the water removes the caffeine as well as other flavour compounds, the beans are disposed of and this liquid is filtered to remove the caffeine. A batch of coffee can now be soaked in this GCE and because of the flavour compounds already in this liquid, the beans will retain these compounds while releasing their caffeine.

Caffeine levels, time and temperature controls are monitored and adjusted for about 10 hours until the coffee is 99.9% caffeine free.

Enjoy your coffee well into the night!
