Caffeine And Teas
Tea, coffee, cola nuts, and cocoa all contain a natural alkaloid chemical compound known as caffeine, which acts as a stimulant on the nervous system. Some people react badly to caffeine, and its over-consumption of can lead to medical problems. To counter these effects, decaffeinated coffee, teas, sodas, and even chocolate are widely available today.
It has been long known that coffee contains caffeine; indeed, our word for the substance derives from “coffee” (café). The discovery that the stimulant in tea was identical came only in 1827; until that time it was thought to be a different stimulant called “theine.” Today, though, we know these to be identical, and it is commonplace knowledge that tea does indeed contain caffeine.
It’s a common misconception that coffee has more caffeine than tea. Usually this is the case, but caffeine contents of tea vary by type, and are also affected by the length of and water temperature used during steeping. As a rule of thumb, though, while a cup of regular coffee has about 80 milligrams of caffeine, black tea has about 40 (but sometimes up to 100!), oolong teas from 30 to 50, green teas 20 to 30, and white teas only 15 to 25 milligrams per serving (about five ounces).
Teas that have—or claim to have—no caffeine have either been decaffeinated by one of several conventional methods, or are herbal “teas” called tisanes or tinctures made of fruits, mint, and/or other plants and contain no actual leaves from the tea plant. Real teas that have been decaffeinated rarely if ever actually have all of their caffeine removed.
There are two widely used methods by which decaf tea is produced. The first involves soaking the tea leaves in ethyl acetate. This process is often described and even labeled as “natural,” as this chemical is present in the tea leaf anyway. The ethyl acetate removes much of the caffeine, but also adversely affects the flavor of the tea.
The other commonly used process soaks the leaves first in carbon dioxide and afterwards in water; the CO2 draws caffeine from the tea, and the water lets them reabsorb and retain both flavor and nutritional compounds, allowing it to keep its taste and beneficial effects.
Because it is known that high brewing temperatures cause tea to release caffeine very quickly, some people advocate a decaffeination method available in the home. The idea is to steep the tea in boiling water for forty-five seconds, discard this liquid, and then re-steep the tea for drinking. However, claims that this reduces the caffeine content by up to 80% have not been verified, and this method should not be used by people who need to strictly control their caffeine intake.
Instead try herbal infusions, Rooibos, or other naturally caffeine-free tea-like drinks to avoid health risks while still enjoying your favorite beverage.
To brew the best quality loose leaf tea, you’ll need a japanese tea set, kyusu, or cast iron teapot.
