    How Much Caffeine Is In Decaf Coffee?

    If you drink decaf coffee, how much caffeine is really left? A lot of people drink decaf coffee because caffeine keeps them awake or their doctor has told them to stay away from caffeine.

    While most decaf coffee has significantly less caffeine than caffeinated coffees, they are not totally caffeine free. Coffee must have at least 97 percent of its caffeine removed to qualify as decaffeinated coffee in the United States.

    So around 5 milligrams of caffeine are still present in a 6 ounce cup of decaf coffee as opposed to the 100 to 150 milligrams in 6 ounces of brewed coffee. Tea has much less caffeine than coffee, so most decaf tea has even less caffeine than decaf coffee.

    Coffee is always sold as decaffeinated rather than caffeine free. The difference between caffeine free and decaffeinated is decaffeinated means that the caffeine has been removed where as caffeine free means no caffeine has been added.

    There are several methods currently used for decaffeinating coffee. They use everything from chemicals found naturally in fruits, water processes, carbon filters to carbon dioxide methods.

    The caffeine from these decaffeination processes is remanufactured and used in medicines and soft drinks. Even though there is a slight amount of caffeine left in decaf coffee, the trace amount is not a significant problem for people who don't want the effects of caffeine in their systems.
