We are the largest Decaf roaster in Australia.
For more than 15 years, we have been roasting quality, chemical-free decaf coffee beans for delivery to customers all around Australia.
Our reputation for producing Australia's best-roasted decaf coffee beans remains today.
Organic Mountain Water is a premium decaf bean sourced from one of the best farms in Honduras. Rich, smooth, and creamy with a delicious chocolate finish.
Decaf Vs Traditional Coffee Beans
Please NOTE:
Decaf coffees have a significantly darker green bean appearance than traditional coffee beans.
Once roasted, Decaf coffee beans will appear very dark (almost black). They may emit a light sheen of oil on the outside surface of the roasted beans as soon as 2-3 days after roasting.
This dark colour of roasted Decaf and the light oil sheen does not mean the coffee was over-roasted.
It also does not mean the coffee is stale.
The dark colour and slight sheen are standard for roasted Decaf coffee beans.
The process that removes the caffeine imparts a higher moisture content inside the coffee bean cell structure, generating a darker shade and oily outer appearance.
We have developed a reputation for roasting some of the best decaf beans in Australia, and it starts with selecting and using the absolute best quality decaf green beans.
Most roasters struggle to produce a pleasant-tasting Decaf as they only do it sometimes. Because raw Decaf has a different appearance, moisture and density than traditional coffees, many coffee companies end up over-roasting Decafs, making it bitter and ashy.
Our roasting equipment has finer air and temperature control, enabling us to produce a wonderfully soft heat that suits the decaf roasting process.
We are famous for roasting some of Australia's best decaf coffee beans, and we are sure you will enjoy them.

Tips -
light, medium or dark
Each coffee in our store has a unique roast profile carefully engineered and continuously updated to achieve the best balance of flavor, body, complexity, acidity, sweetness and finish.
It's a never-ending process with new lots arriving almost weekly along with the constantly changing Melbourne weather conditions.
We don't use light, medium or dark as our guide. That's so outdated and quite frankly inaccurate with around 20 shades each of light, medium and dark.
The external or outside color is never a true indicator of a coffee's cup attributes (or performance).
In other words, coffee can appear dark outside but have under-developed internals (sour, flat, weak, thin, etc.) if it was roasted poorly.
Similarly, a light exterior can easily mask or hide internal scorching or invalid roasting profile.
The target for all of our coffees (excluding specific filter roast products that are intentionally roasted lighter) is medium.
Think cafe style and coffee that is best suitable for espresso or traditional brewing devices.
What's critically important to us is that we extract maximum goodness for you to enjoy.
After 20 years and hundreds of thousands of batches, we think our Tier 1 infrastructure, skills and experience surpass the market.
Ground coffee
Ground coffee will lose around 80% of essential vitality after 15 minutes oxygen exposure. Even ground coffee inside of a sealed, unopened bag will stale considerably within 2 weeks.
Some brewing applications, such as espresso, require roasted coffee in peak freshness to produce a delicious extraction. Other brew methods are less sensitive to the impact of staling coffee.
To ensure freshness, we never hold, store or manufacture any ground coffees. All our coffees are packed as whole beans within 1hr of roasting to lock in freshness.
When a customer orders ground coffee, we take fresh roasted beans, cut the seal, grind, clean and re-seal within 60 seconds. All at the moment your order is packed for dispatch.
We recommend for the best coffee experience to consider purchasing whole beans and grind only enough to brew just moments beforehand.
