the kericho ea decaf is a blended decaffeinated coffee from crankhouse coffee, sourcing beans from kenya and rwanda. the ea (ethyl acetate) decaffeination process uses a naturally derived solvent to strip caffeine while preserving the character of the original beans. east african coffees from these two origins typically bring bright fruit acidity and clean cup structure, making this a solid option for those avoiding caffeine without wanting a flat, dull brew. it suits filter methods well, where the lighter roast profile can express clarity and origin character. a good choice for afternoon or evening drinking when you still want a considered, traceable cup.
common questions
What does Kericho EA DECAF taste like?
crankhouse sources this from kenya and rwanda, two origins known for bright acidity and clean, fruit-forward cups. the ea decaf process is gentler than some alternatives, so those characteristics are more likely to carry through than with heavily processed decafs.
How is Kericho EA DECAF grown and processed?
the coffee comes from kenya and rwanda and is decaffeinated using the ethyl acetate method, which uses a naturally derived solvent to remove caffeine before the beans are roasted by crankhouse coffee.
How should I brew Kericho EA DECAF?
filter brewing, such as a v60, chemex, or batch brewer, tends to work well with east african coffees at a lighter roast, allowing acidity and clarity to come through. treat it as you would any quality filter coffee, keeping water temperature around 92-94°c.
