Frequently asked questions
What is the intensity of Delta Q Deqafeinatus?
Deqafeinatus N°7 is rated 7 on the Delta Q intensity scale, which currently goes up to 16 with Uniq. Delta Q defines intensity as the strength of the coffee's flavour, which depends on the amount of ground coffee, the roast level and the type of beans: the higher the number, the stronger the espresso.
Delta Q describes it as a rich and authentic decaffeinated coffee: an intense decaffeinated espresso with notes of caramel and roasted nuts, and balanced acidity.
Where does the coffee in Delta Q Deqafeinatus come from?
Deqafeinatus N°7 combines Robusta from Vietnam and Uganda with Arabica from Brazil. Like the coffee in all Delta Q capsules, it is roasted by Delta Cafés in Campo Maior, Portugal, where the green coffees are tasted every day before being roasted and blended.
Deqafeinatus N°7 or Qonvictus N°5: which should you choose?
Deqafeinatus N°7 (intensity 7) is rich and authentic: decaffeinated, with notes of caramel and roasted nuts. Qonvictus N°5 (intensity 5) is classic and balanced: notes of caramel and chocolate, with delicate acidity.
For a caffeinated coffee with a more classic profile, choose Qonvictus N°5; for an evening coffee, stick with decaffeinated Deqafeinatus N°7.
Does Deqafeinatus contain caffeine?
This is a decaffeinated coffee: the caffeine is removed from the green beans before roasting, and the very low amount that remains is regulated for the coffee to qualify for the ‘decaffeinated’ label. It is suitable as an evening coffee.
Are Delta Q Deqafeinatus capsules compatible with Nespresso?
No. Delta Q capsules use a format specific to the brand: they only work in Delta Q machines, such as the Mini Qool or ICONIQ, and do not fit Nespresso, Dolce Gusto or Lavazza machines. Likewise, a Delta Q machine only accepts Delta Q format capsules.
What is in the pack of 100 capsules?
10 boxes of 10 capsules of Deqafeinatus N°7, making 100 coffees, either 30 ml espressos or 45 ml lungos, the two volumes specified by Delta Q. At two coffees a day, the pack lasts around fifty days, and the boxes stay sealed until needed. Deqafeinatus N°7 is also available in a box of 10 and a pack of 40.
How do you recycle Delta Q capsules?
A Delta Q capsule combines a plastic body with an aluminium lid; according to Delta Q, it can be recycled by separating the plastic, aluminium and coffee grounds. In France, the instructions depend on your local authority: check Citeo’s Guide du tri (website or app). The grounds can be composted.
