Decaffeinated Coffee
« on: January 26, 2010, 20:17:02 PM »
Do any CBF members out there who love their coffee know of any decaffeinated brands (ground or beans) that are any good? Apparently reducing your caffeine intake is a good thing, and I have a big intake :D

I've tried a few and so far I'm not impressed. I may be hoping for far too much mind you - what I have in mind is one that tastes a bit like coffee  ;)

I've had to cut down as been diagnosed with a hiatus hernia and as usual coffee is one of the things they say to avoid ( and chocolate, but sorry, cant do it)

Kenco decaff is really good, I cant really taste the difference and I was a real addict.

Hasnt made any difference to the hernia though !

Nescafe Gold Decaf or Kenco.....I had to change for health reasons and now do not taste the difference. Give it time and in a few months you'll not realise or notice the difference :D

Decaffeinated Coffee is a bit like Alcohol free wine or beer, a contridiction in terms. ;)

Caffine = Coffee.

Decaff = No idea, but it's not coffee. :D:D

I am shocked to realise I am currently suffering myself from an age old CBF behavioural problem. I came here to ask for advice on decent decaf coffee, and now people have been kind enough to offer suggestions I don't believe you :D
