Re: Decaf Coffee Recommendations

  • I've been drinking Whole Foods' brand (365) "Buzz-free" decaf, which is organic and Swiss water processed. (Both those things are important to DH and me... I had a cancer scare a couple of years ago and we've gone all-organic since then... I'm convinced that's what helped us finally conceive a surviving baby -- after six miscarriages.)

    We get the whole bean kind and grind it ourselves... it's soooo good, I don't miss the fully-leaded stuff!

  • I have a Keurig, and I use the half-caff k-cups, not caffeine free, but pretty good.

  • Dunkin donuts decaf is okay.   I wouldn't waste the money on the swiss water super-duper special stuff (it's all decaf, and therefore, all tastes not so great anyway) --- I did a ton of research on the decaf process after seeing other posts about people freaking out about chemical decaffienation (and DH is a chemist) -- the chemical decafinator used on the beans is applied prior to roasting and completely evaporates at a lower temp than the temp that coffee beans are roasted at -- meaning there is zero chemical left after the beans are roasted.

  • I'm still drinking regular or go with half/caff if I'm buying it at coffee shop. However, I have cut down from 3 cups a day to barely one. In our house we usually buy the Target brand coffee...it's pretty good.

  • I get coffee beans at a local shop.  They are organic and water processed.  The taste is great and water processing is important to me.  I also heard that Peet's coffee uses the water process, but their coffee always tastes burnt to me.

  • My body still has a major aversion to coffee. But, when I'm not pregnant, I like Green Mountain Breakfast Blend and, for a bolder blend, Dark Magic. Both come in decaf and Kcups.
