About Decaf Colombia Excelso Coffee
Coffee has supported families across Cundinamarca since the 1800s, with farms established along the Eastern Andes and toward the Llanos Orientales. This coffee uses Colombia’s sugarcane process: ethyl acetate derived from fermented sugarcane molasses selectively removes caffeine after the beans are hydrated, followed by cleaning, steaming and drying. Explore it alongside other specialty coffee selections available through Espresso Outlet.
This profile is designed around balance between aroma, sweetness, body and finish. Roast development and brew method will change the emphasis: filter brewing generally favors clarity, while espresso and immersion can increase concentration and perceived body.

Brewing Guidance
Begin filter brewing near a 1:16 brew ratio with water around 195–200°F. Decaffeinated coffee can extract differently from a fully caffeinated roast, so use taste to guide grind changes: finer for a thin or sharp cup, coarser for dryness or bitterness. For espresso, start with an 18 g dose and 36–42 g beverage yield.
Use fresh, appropriately ground coffee and a consistent water recipe. A capable Turin grinder makes small grind adjustments repeatable. If you brew concentrated drinks, compare compatible Turin espresso machines and weigh both dose and beverage yield so changes are measurable.
Freshness, Degassing and Ordering
Check the variant selector for the currently available size, caffeine and grind choices. Roast date is not specified on this listing. Fresh coffee releases carbon dioxide after roasting, so brief degassing can make extraction more even; the useful rest period depends on roast level and brew method. Store the package sealed in a cool, dry place.
