Lavazza Dek Filtro Whole Bean Coffee Medium Roast 1.1LB Bag ,Authentic Italian, Blended and roasted in Italy, Roasted cereals and barrique aromatic note, Nut Free

Smooth with no bitterness. This decaf is very good. Not bitter with a subtle sweetness and hint of chocolate. Most decaf coffees don’t have the same rich flavor. I made cappuccino with it and the crema was perfect.

This is an amazing tasting espresso blend considering the fact that it is decaf. I try to limit my caffeine use to a few times a week and this coffee is a great option for those who like espresso, but can’t have caffeine. Taste is a very subjective thing. This is why I never take reviews at their face value when it comes to product involving ‘taste’ we are all different in that prospective. I’ve used up 1/3 of a bag in the process of dialing this coffee to yield a perfect shot of espresso. I bought myself breville barista espress, bare in mind I’m new to this so it took me 3 days and hours of watching youtube videos in the process of getting a perfect shot from this coffee. Be patient and you will eventually get it! Below I’m going to outline the basics of getting a drinkable shot from which you can fine tune and extrapolate to a shot that suits your pallet. First and foremost I’ve got to mention that I don’t drink starbucks, period. I think it is worth mentioning because it will give you idea about my palette. All starbucks taste to me like burnt, tasteless goo. If I do buy espresso, then it is usually from mom and pop shop. I’ve tried to pull a decent double shot from this, but no matter what I did it was either bitter or sour. In terms of yield (1:2) , and time (25+sec) it was supposed to taste more or less ok, but it did not. This is was the result of 2 days trial and error. I was on a verge of packing my espresso machine and returning it! On day three I had an epiphany! I’ve got to increase my output ratio. I wanted to stay in 20-30 sec range. And from my previous trials that would mean my double would have to extend beyond 30 sec mark. I decided to scale back to a single shot. Increase ratio to 1:2.5 within 25-30 time frame. The result was completely different, I finally got a decently tasting shot. Here’s my recipe: - 10g of coffee as measured in portafilter. - 5/3 i set my grinder to 5 on the inside (bore) and 3 as dialed on the outside wheel - firm tamp - run a single shot through empty portafilter to warm it up clean and load with 10g of grounded coffee - set your machine into manual mode (press program button on your BBE) - get your scale / shotglass set up under portafilter, get your timer ready - hit double shot button wait until first drops and start the timer. - observe scales. You’ve got to wait until scale reads 21-22g and then hit double shot button and stop the timer simultaneously. You should get about 2-4g as an afterflow. Your timer should read about 25sec +/- 2 sec. from here you can adjust to make a delicious shot that suits your taste. I’m going to eventually tune machine to get a double shot, but personally, i’m just fine with singles.

We thought that the flavor of this coffee was excellent. I like that it is a whole bean decaffeinated

I'm serious about coffee. Of late have moved over to a anit-inflamatory diet so tried out a number of decaf coffees. Having grown up in Europe and Africa I am used to rich, deep, dark roast coffees. This Lavazza Dek hit the spot. Used it in the Breville making double shot Americanos and Latte's. My favorite however, for morning coffee, is using the Keurig machine with Keurig Pod (see pics). I use a Rounexes grinder on 2 cups (lowest it will go) with grinding at between fine and medium. I lightly tap down the coffee as I spoon it into the filter and at end use a coffee stirrer (has little metal barbs on it) to ensure water filters through the coffee since the pod, unlike the one that comes with the Keurig that takes pods, only has one water outlet. Overall: Taste is smooth, rich, defininetly not burned like a Starbucks, somewhat less bold than I would eventually like but very similar in taste to Savaya, with very little acidity. I have noticed that during clean up of the Pod, it is a bit more greasy than others I have used.

I definitely love the taste of this coffee beans, I tried others before but I would say this is my favorite bought here on Amazon. I think the size is good for two people and the freshness it’s great each time that a new package arrives I can smell the delicious aroma.

Great coffee. I bought this for my friends and family who don't drink caffeinated coffee LOL.

In my opinion, this product is not worth the price. The flavor is very intense and overpowering, which may not appeal to everyone. Additionally, the package size is quite small for the price point, making it feel overpriced compared to similar options on the market. While the quality may suit those who prefer very strong coffee, the overall value for money is disappointing.

Most delicious coffee without the bitter aftertaste We use this coffee for expresso as well as regular coffee! RICH deep flavor, great aroma. We use it in a JURA coffee machine, but I'm sure it's great for regular drip as well

es un excelente cafe sin cafeina con mucho sabor

If you don't want the jitters and still have a smooth, flavourful and satisfying cup of coffee, this is a gooder. All the decaffeinated coffee beans I've tried to date have been a lesser experience than regular beans: They are almost always dark roast (even the ones labeled medium-dark) and, understandably, the processing to extract the caffeine affects the integrity of the beans. It makes it tough to get the grind just right, lacks crema, and flavour that is just meh. Dek coffee is definitely in a different category; and more like the specialty espresso beans I've come to prefer. True medium roast that maintains more of the nuances of flavour. ☕️👌🏼

Très bon café déca. J'en ai essayer plusieurs et, le LAVAZZA me convient. Pas trop fort ni trop lèger. C'est ce qu'il me fallait. Je garderai celui là.

Lavazza Dek- Eine Sinnesempfindung ganz nach dem großen Vorbild mit Koffein! Rund, vollmundig, ausgewogen und wie andere schreiben, ohne Säuregefühl im Geschmack. Perfekt für jeden Anlass. Letztens hatten unsere Gäste auch nicht gemerkt, dass es hier ein koffeinfreies Kaffee serviert wurde… Apropo Herstellungsverfahren; Es hat sich auch bei Lavazza seit 2023 das Verfahren positiv geändert; Es steht bereits dezidiert auch auf der Verpackung oben, dass hier nach dem Bio-Verfahren mit CO2 ( Kohlendioxid) gearbeitet wird, also keine Chemische Zugaben mehr da sind! Empfehlenswert nicht nur für Koffein-Sensible Personen sondern auch für Vieltrinker )

As I opened these Lavazza coffee beans the beautiful rich aroma reminded me of the smell and freshness of the full caffeine Lavazza beans. So I am stood there with my nose in the bag taking in this amazing aroma lol. I find that these beans are smaller in size than the full caffeine beans but in my opinion this does not detract from the quality and the smooth well balanced taste in which I did not detect any bitterness at all. These beans have a subtle nuttiness and a delicate fruitiness to them. They are bold without being too strong. A perfect fit for me. Honestly these beans are so good it’s hard to believe they are not full caffeine beans. I must admit I have tried a few different brands of coffee beans but these are now my absolute favourite for my bean to cup coffee machine. As far as the price is concerned I feel they offer value for money because of their quality even though the price is more expensive they are: 1. Italian coffee beans and: 2. They are decaffeinated using the water process whereas the cheaper brands use solvents in the decaffeinating process. In my opinion I give these beans a whopping 9/10 for the best decaffeinated coffee beans I have tried to date.
