How is decaf coffee made?

Called Swiss Water decaf coffee, this process works through diffusion instead of osmosis utilizing elements of water, temperature, and time. A 4 step process consisting of cleaning and pre-soaking, extraction, carbon filtration and completion that removes caffeine from coffee beans. This maintains as many original coffee notes as possible, making the best decaf coffee.
