Understanding the Swiss Water® Process
When most people think of decaf coffee, they assume flavor loss is inevitable. That’s because many decaffeination methods rely on harsh solvents that can dull or otherwise alter a coffee’s natural character.
The Swiss Water® Process takes a different approach. It’s a 100% chemical-free method that gently removes caffeine using:
- pure water
- soluble solids that are naturally present in coffee
- carefully controlled temperature
- time
This process removes caffeine without compromise, preserving the flavor compounds that make each coffee origin unique.
The Science of Flavor Retention
The Swiss Water® Process begins by creating a flavor-rich solution called Green Coffee Extract (GCE), made from green (unroasted) coffee beans that soak in pure water. The next step in the process is soaking a new batch of caffeinated beans in the GCE. During this soak, a process called diffusion occurs. Diffusion is the natural movement of caffeine from an area of higher concentration in the coffee bean to an area of lower concentration in the surrounding water, while the flavor compounds remain intact within the bean because the solution is already saturated with them. The caffeine is then removed from the extract using specialized carbon filters so that the GCE can be used indefinitely. Finally, the decaffeinated beans are dried and prepared for roasting. The final result is a flavorful, clean, decaf coffee that tastes true to the bean’s origin and still carries the depth, flavors, and aroma you expect.
What Makes Some Decafs Taste Different?
Whether you prefer the chocolate notes, fruity brightness, or nutty richness, unlike solvent-based methods, the Swiss Water® Process keeps the natural flavor integrity of each origin, and your decaf coffee will taste just as satisfying as its caffeinated counterparts. It’s ideal for those who want all the pleasure of coffee without caffeine.

Beyond taste, the Swiss Water® Process aligns with modern coffee drinkers’ values:
- Chemical-free and clean: Pure water and filtration, no synthetic solvents.
- Every batch meets strict quality standards.
It’s a method that supports both the environment and the craft behind great coffee.
