Lipton decaffeination process

Answer 1

There are a few different ways of removing caffeine, but often a solvent will be used to extract caffeine from the coffee bean while leaving all the other chemicals in tact. This is then repeated several times to extract even more caffeine.

Other methods involve soaking of the beans to remove caffeine, and subsequently filtering the caffeine out of the water while keeping the beans and extracted coffee solids together.

Answer 2

There are two ways to decaffienate coffee. One is by using a heap of chemicals and the other is called the Swiss water method. [This does not really answer the question.] Anyone from Starbucks want to clarify?

-- The sumatra decaf is decaffeinated using a third method called the "sparkling water" process that uses high powered CO2 and about .3% water. All other blends are decaffeinated using a chemical process that involves soaking the beans in a water solution containing methylene chloride which acts as a solvent.

Answer 8

Depulping is the process of separating the coffee seeds from the outer layer of flesh.

Many producers have hand depulpers on their farms or share a hand depulper with their neighbors. A hand depulper is a machine with a small rotating burr that tears off the outer layer of the coffee flesh, exposing the two coffee seeds inside. Some producers operate their depulpers by hand and others have mechanized them to help with the labor. The depulper deposits the coffee seeds into a tank and the remaining skin and flesh is separated and commonly used for compost.
