NATURAL DECAFFEINATION PROCESS

USING ETHYL ACETATE (EA)

Ethyl Acetate (EA) is an organic compound in many fruits and vegetables.

In this caffeine extraction process, the green beans are steamed to expand and then soaked in EA.

In the presence of EA, caffeine binds with the compound and is extracted from the bean.

The decaffeinated coffee is removed from the solvent, rinsed, and re-dried for further roasting and consumption.
