Turns out we were taken in by a common Internet myth or misunderstanding. Spank us and send us to Snopes! The DIY caffeine reduction process described in yesterday’s post is not nearly as effective as advertised. Please refer back to the edited post for details.
darn it – and no cute kitty picture either 🙁
Have you tried typhoo decaf? They have it at cost plus. I’m quite happy with it…
It would be known as placebo decaf, if you were able to sleep, etc. Works if it works!
I like this theory.
Actually it is pretty effective! Serious tea shops and tea experts, use it, but only for 26 seconds! And I live with someone whose cystic breast issues are made far worse by caffeine. Using this decaf method retains flavour and does not cause problems. ps I am a Brit and we are a nation of SERIOUS tea drinkers.
