Slow & Steady was born out of a desire to honour decaf drinkers.

We understand that everyone has their own reasons for choosing decaf, and we believe that choice shouldn’t come with compromise. So, we set out to create a brand that not only caters to this niche, but also elevates it, turning the decaf drinking experience into a celebration of leisure and indulgence.

So, take your time. Savour the moment.

FAQ

At Evolve North Coffee Roasters, we treat coffee recipes not as fixed formulas but as adaptable guides. The unique character of water at each location—shaped by its mineral content and other dissolved particles—interacts distinctively with coffee. This interaction, along with personal taste preferences, means that the perfect espresso recipe is as individual as the café itself.

That’s why our approach is hands-on and tailored. We set up our recipes on-site, using your café’s specific equipment and water supply to finely tune the brew to perfection. This method ensures that we craft a recipe that resonates with your espresso’s optimal flavour profile and your customers’ palates.

  1. Immediate Use: Aim to use your coffee beans as soon as possible after opening the bag to maintain peak freshness and flavour.

  2. Short-Term Storage: If you need to store the beans overnight:

    • Choose a cool, dark, and dry location.
    • Avoid areas prone to temperature fluctuations, such as near ovens or windows.
  3. Airtight Containers: Transfer the beans into an airtight container to minimise air exposure. Consider options like:

    • Vacuum-sealed containers with pumps to extract air.
    • Food storage containers with tight-sealing lids.
  4. Avoid Refrigeration: It’s generally not advisable to refrigerate your coffee beans as this can introduce moisture and odours.

  5. Keep in Small Quantities: Store beans in small amounts to ensure you’re only opening what you’ll use promptly, keeping the rest sealed.

  6. Light Protection: Use opaque containers if possible to protect beans from light, which can degrade the quality.

Eco-friendly Decaf: Why We Choose Water Processed Decaf

The Water Decaffeination Process uses water from the mountains to gently remove the caffeine until the coffee beans are 99.9% caffeine-free, while maintaining the beans’ distinctive origin and flavour characteristics. It’s decaffeinated coffee without compromise.

Eco-friendly decaffeination processes, such as Mountain Water Decaf, are crucial for promoting sustainability and environmental stewardship in the coffee industry. Traditional methods often use chemical solvents that can pose risks to both human health and the environment.

In contrast, eco-friendly decaffeination prioritises natural and sustainable approaches, utilising methods like water extraction or organic solvents from natural sources. By choosing eco-friendly decaffeinated coffee, consumers can enjoy their favourite brew without sacrificing taste or quality, while also supporting practices that minimise harm to ecosystems and communities.

Moreover, eco-friendly decaffeination helps promote biodiversity by preserving the integrity of coffee-growing regions and protecting wildlife habitats. Embracing these processes is a significant step towards building a more sustainable and ethically responsible coffee industry for future generations.

The Mountain Water Decaffeination Process

  • Process: Green, unroasted coffee beans are soaked in pure water from mountain glaciers, allowing the caffeine and coffee solids to dissolve.
  • Filtering: The water is passed through activated charcoal filters to remove caffeine while retaining the flavour compounds.
  • Reuse of Water: The caffeine-free water is then used to decaffeinate a new batch of beans, following a method similar to the Swiss Water Process.
  • Re-Drying and Polishing: The beans are gently dried in cylindrical and vertical coffee dryers, then polished to clean and remove dust particles before being repacked into burlap bags.
