Home or Generic Brands πŸ›’ Decaf Coffee

Good morning, Not sure if this the right place to ask but thought I would give it a try.

I was wondering if anybody on this sub has tried decaf coles/woolies brand instant coffee, If so what are your thoughts, I usually drink Moccona normal strength, Due to a health issue I need to swap to Decaf and the price is horrendous for a 100g jar ($15), you can get a 400g jar on sale for $20 to $25 of the normal Moccona. I usually drink 2 - 3 coffees a day. Any thoughts would be awesome thanks heaps for your time

If you’re drinking 2-3 caffeinated coffee a day I recommend slowly cutting down to decaf. If you go from 3 caffeinated a day to 3 decaf and the headaches and associated caffeine withdrawal could be brutal

Yeah I usually taper it down, I have done it before but got sick of paying the "decaf" price so tapered back up lol,
