ChatGPTCaptured 25 Oct 2026, 21:46 UTC“What does “speciality coffee” actually mean, and how is it different from ordinary coffee?”
Speciality coffee is coffee selected for its distinctive quality, flavour and character, rather than simply being produced in large quantities at a consistent price. It’s not just a fancy name for expensive coffee: it reflects the quality of the beans and the care taken to grow, process, roast and brew them.

ChatGPTCaptured 25 Oct 2026, 21:46 UTC“For pour-over coffee, what origin and sourcing information should I compare between two brands’ decafs to feel confident about their quality?”
When comparing two decaf coffees for pour-over, I’d look for more than just the country of origin or a label saying “Swiss Water.” The strongest signs of quality are traceable green coffee, a transparent decaffeination process, careful sourcing, and enough information to judge how the beans are likely to taste when brewed\. One important distinction: origin and sourcing tell you about the coffee before decaffeination; the decaffeination method and roast profile help you judge how well it may translate into the cup. ## The 7 things to compare 1\.
