Lavazza Decaffeinated Coffee Beans, 500 g

Very good product

As described

Always drinking lavazza decaf beans

As a lover of strong black coffee, its sad that I’m now not allowed to have caffeine 😖 However I thought that by buying a well known coffee brand beans, I could have my love and observe doctors instructions. Oh how wrong I was, firstly it’s not coffee its at best weak brown water and secondly the only taste it has is chemicals. Before you ask if it’s my Breville bean to cup machine, I changed the grind settings to maximize the strength and that only achieved a slightly darker brown water. My search for decaf coffee beans continues….

Great taste considering being a decaffeinated coffee bean. Pay attention to its grinding process since it easily turns into a powder

Machine - Delonghi La Specialista Arte Evo Grind Size - 4 WDT + 30lb Calibrated Tamper 14g IN 20g OUT First of all - I'm very very new to espresso. I was recommended that the Lavazza Super Crema was a great starting point for the time. Being new to making espresso from the bean, I was actually very impressed with the Super Crema so much that I wanted to drink coffee the whole day. In comes the Lavazza DEK. Using the built in grinder from the La Specialista - I have no real control outside what the machine is capable of, so I guess I'm happy with it. It is a little clumpy from the grind, but I use a WDT tool to break it apart! I read that the DEK has anywhere between 2-8mg of caffeine, so it is pretty light. I try to limit my caffeine intake to around 600mg per day, so this bean is great to have through the day and at night after dinner. Opening the bag smelled absolutely delicious. The first thing it reminded me of was cereal. I actually had no idea that was part of the note, but yes - cereal was VERY apparent. It smelled wonderful. I paired this with Oatly Oatmilk Barista edition, and my goodness it actually tasted so frickin good. Literally cereal. I am also surprised that this is dark roast - I had no idea. Again, being new to coffee, I'm actually unsure if all decaf beans are dark roast, but it was exceptionally light on my palate (maybe the milk?) and I was very pleased by it.

Gran sabor sin sacrificar el sueño!

Macinato a 3 come riferimento.Grammi 9 per il singolo caffè …..usare il filtro per un espresso risulta un pochino più difficile.Comunque un caffè superbo per essere un DEKA.Perfetto!!

As I opened these Lavazza coffee beans the beautiful rich aroma reminded me of the smell and freshness of the full caffeine Lavazza beans. So I am stood there with my nose in the bag taking in this amazing aroma lol. I find that these beans are smaller in size than the full caffeine beans but in my opinion this does not detract from the quality and the smooth well balanced taste in which I did not detect any bitterness at all. These beans have a subtle nuttiness and a delicate fruitiness to them. They are bold without being too strong. A perfect fit for me. Honestly these beans are so good it’s hard to believe they are not full caffeine beans. I must admit I have tried a few different brands of coffee beans but these are now my absolute favourite for my bean to cup coffee machine. As far as the price is concerned I feel they offer value for money because of their quality even though the price is more expensive they are: 1. Italian coffee beans and: 2. They are decaffeinated using the water process whereas the cheaper brands use solvents in the decaffeinating process. In my opinion I give these beans a whopping 9/10 for the best decaffeinated coffee beans I have tried to date.
