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 ;)
Ta :)

I drink Nescafe and Gold Blend decaff, have done for years. To me they taste like coffee:D
-
Yes, you have forgotten what the real stuff tastes like ;)
-
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 Alta Rida intense is ok.
Wean yourself of coffe or you will end up with a headache for days.
-
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
-
thats what I thought too, but it really is ok.
I just need sugar free sugar now and I'm sorted
-
Stick to full fat man,I have a one called Rocket Fuel which is high caffeine boosted with Gurana or another high caffeine called Lava Java.They dont half get you going palpitations and everything !
-
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

I think that will ultimately be the answer - I don't drink instant at all now and make a good strong coffee and do so plenty of times a day. I can't imagine the answer for me lies in decaf, maybe in having fewer :)
-
stop wimping out, and just do it! Its all in the mind x
-
Coffee keeps me awake and whisky makes me tired. Perhaps the answer is to change to Irish coffees.
-
Then you will get fat on the cream.

Like you Keith I dont drink instant at all now! However I had to cut out milk 2 years ago and at first that was awful but now I couldnt manage milk in my drinks . So I cut down on the coffee and have 2 a day! Now in between I have to drink black tea which I found truly awful! So I tried black Earl Grey and then Lady Grey- now love them both! I carry teabags around with me so that I dont have to suffer crappy instant coffee in meetings!
-
Milk in coffee is sacrilege,strong nd black no sugar stand your spoon up in type of brew.I'd drink strong Turkish by the mug full if I could get !
Mind you I have had the same medical advice re stomach problems,headaches,sleepless nights etc etc I wonder why lol !

I don't really see myself as the 'producing an Earl Grey teabag' type to be honest Maria ;)
