Question: Is decaffeinated coffee really free of caffeine? If not, how much caffeine does "decaffeinated" coffee contain?
Answers:

Nothing will get every last caffeine molecule out of a coffee bean, but the US accepts 99.9% caffeine free by weight (i.e. 0.1% caffeine, as opposed to the 1-2% caffeine of a regular coffee bean). So 5-10 cups of decaf (they don't always get 99.9% of the caffeine out) is equivalent to one regular cup of coffee.



Some actually are. Caffeine can be removed a number of ways. Link attached.
