Do fresh coffee beans have more caffeine? <\/h2>\n

While the caffeine content of coffee can vary depending on the type of bean and how it is roasted, typically fresh roasted coffee has more caffeine than coffee that has been sitting around for a while. This is because the roasting process breaks down some of the membranes that contain caffeine, making it more potent.<\/p>\n

The process of decaffeinating coffee beans is a complex one that involves the use of either water or a mixture of water and solvents. The most common solvents used are methylene chloride or ethyl acetate. The beans are first warmed and soaked in the liquid to dissolve and remove the caffeine. The beans are then rinsed and dried before being roasted.<\/p>\n
