    Oh, does decaf make good espresso? I got pretty spoiled with my taste, living in a coffee producing country, lol.

      I rarely go straight decaf (because I can tell) but when I feel like my tolerance is peaking I’ll mix decaf into my regular beans in whatever ratio. It works fine for all brew methods.

      decaffeinating likely removes a few flavor compounds inevitably, but in my semi coffee snob experience I’ve had plenty of flavorful decaf espresso
