Is Flavored Coffee Bad For You?

The coffee industry has been offering flavored coffees for years and has used chemical solvents to make flavors. The main ingredient used in flavoring is Propylene Glycol (PG). Propylene Glycol is the carrier that holds the flavor together. When flavors are development for coffee, the amount of (PG) is between 90 and 99% of the flavor. The amount of flavor used is only 1 to 10% of the total liquid.

In 2006 the European Union ruled that the legal limit of (PG) can not exceed .01% in any product manufactured in Europe. The coffee industry in the US still uses (PG) as the main ingredient.

Wouldn’t you rather enjoy a pure taste of coffee flavor? We developed Chemical Solvent Free (CSF) flavoring process as a natural way to flavor coffee. In our process, we found a way to infuse the flavor directly into coffee, thus eliminating the need for Chemical Solvent (PG) found in flavored coffees. This new proprietary process guarantees you a much smoother taste of flavor in your cup. Today consumers are searching for better and more natural options. We know you will appreciate our revolutionary flavoring system.

Coffee Talk - How To Flavor Coffee

Flavored Coffee In the coffee business flavored coffee has become almost 40% the total coffee sales in America today. With the top flavors being hazelnut, vanilla and caramel those 3 flavors are over 80% of the flavor coffee business. This is why there are so many ways to flavor coffee like creamers, syrup, sugar and many other ways. The best way and more natural way is to just flavor the coffee. There are several ways to flavor the coffee one way is to just flavor the beans and another way is to add flavor to the brew basket I will talk about that in my article on Flavor Shot. We have been flavoring coffee for over 15 years and found that not all flavors are created equal. Some flavor houses offer inferior flavors by using more PG (propylene glycol) than other flavoring houses. What is PG read my article on (CSF). You have to know the company that you are dealing with and determine the quality of the product that they are producing.

Let’s talk about the coffee used for flavoring it is usually the cheapest grade of coffee that can be purchased on the coffee market so they can offset the cost of the flavor. If you cannot taste great coffee with the flavor this is one reason why.
