help Illy Decaffeinato FAQ

What makes Illy Decaffeinato different from ordinary decaf coffee?

Illy Decaffeinato uses naturally decaffeinated Arabica beans and Illy's patented caffeine-removal process. The intended result is a smooth espresso with intense flavor, minimal acidity, and a rich crema.

Does Illy Decaffeinato taste like espresso rather than weak coffee?

Yes, it is designed to preserve the roasted Arabica character associated with Illy espresso. Its rich crema and intense flavor are intended to remain noticeable even after caffeine removal.

Can Illy Decaffeinato be prepared in an espresso machine?

The product is designed for espresso preparation, with the exact method depending on whether you buy ground coffee, E.S.E. pods, or an Illy capsule format. An espresso machine can produce the characteristic crema described for the blend.

Is Illy Decaffeinato completely caffeine-free?

No decaffeination process normally removes every trace of caffeine, so Decaffeinato should not be treated as caffeine-free. It is intended for people who want the taste of Arabica espresso with minimal caffeine.
