## Description

Taylors of Harrogate Decaffé Roast Ground: A Fuller Decaf, in summary: A decaf roasted fuller by choice, with soft caramel sweetness and low bitterness, ground for cafetière or filter. Use a little more than usual, about 65g per litre, steep four to five minutes and finish it within a fortnight.
Last reviewed by the teas.co.uk team in September 2026.
Most thin, papery decafs share one cause: decaffeination strips out more than the caffeine, and some of what builds body and sweetness goes with it. This Taylors pack is roasted fuller to put that back, and a small change to your dose finishes the job.
Why decaf so often tastes thin 
Caffeine carries some bitterness of its own, and the process that removes it also takes away part of what builds body and caramelised sweetness in the roaster. A roaster who ignores that ends up with a flat cup. Here the roast is deliberately fuller than you might expect from a decaf, and a gentle caramel sweetness through the middle fills the gap the missing bitterness leaves.
The label is short: decaffeinated arabica coffee, 100%, and the allergen statement for this barcode names none of the 14 major allergens. Which decaffeination process is used is a question for the current pack; we would rather point you there than guess. Decaf is also not caffeine-free. A trace remains, so a herbal infusion is the choice if you need none at all.
Getting the cafetière right 
Use a little more coffee than you would for a caffeinated pot: about 65g of coffee to a litre of water, where 60g would be normal. Steep for four to five minutes instead of the standard four. The extra weight and the extra time are what stop a decaf reading thin, and together they are the most useful adjustment you can make at home.
Water temperature matters too. Let the kettle stand for about thirty seconds after it boils, which brings it to around 94 degrees; water at a rolling boil drags the papery note forward. The coffee comes already ground, so it can go straight into a cafetière or a filter basket, with no grinder to set and nothing to adjust beyond the dose.
Keeping an open pack at its best 
Ground coffee begins to fade the day the seal is broken, because grinding lets the aromatic compounds escape all at once, and decaf fades faster than most. Press the air out, roll the top tight and store it in a cool, dark cupboard away from the kettle's steam. Aim to finish it inside a fortnight, which is the case for the 200g size over anything bigger.
Within the Taylors decaf range this is the middle option. The Decaffe Beans suit anyone with a grinder, and the Decaffe Ground carton of ten coffee bags suits a single mug with no kit at all. This ground pack is for the household that puts a pot on the table after dinner, with Decaffeinated Yorkshire tea bags from the same house for anyone who would rather have a cup of tea.

FAQ
Is decaffeinated the same as caffeine-free? No. Most of the caffeine is removed, but a trace remains.
How much decaf should I use in a cafetière? About 65g per litre, a little more than the 60g usual for caffeinated coffee, steeped for four to five minutes.
Which decaffeination method does Taylors use? Check the current pack, which is the only reliable place to find the method.
Why does my decaf taste papery or thin? Fiercely boiling water brings the papery note to the front, and a light dose leaves the cup thin. Let the kettle rest about thirty seconds and use a little more coffee.
Can it go in a filter machine? Yes. The grind suits a filter machine as well as a cafetière.
Curator's note: Make the heavier dose a habit and give it the full five minutes. Done that way it tastes like coffee first and decaf a distant second. Lee, teas.co.uk, Tunbridge Wells.
