I foresee a huge scandal - "Windshield Washer Colors Lie!" 🤣
I often wonder if decaf coffee is really decaf. If the kitchen has to fill a pot, they fill a pot. And did the manufacturer actually make decaf coffee?

I can usually taste the difference between decaf and regular coffee.

Does anyone remember when benzene was used to extract caffeine from coffee? Benzene=cancer, birth defects etc. Don't know how this got past the FDA.

As often as I try, I cannot taste the difference between the types of washer fluid.
Although, the RainX makes my teeth shiny.
Sorry, I've had way too much coffee today.

Decaf seems less robust to me.

I don't know if it is still true, but I seem to recall that regular coffee was typically made with Arabica coffee beans and De-Caf used more Robusta.

I’m really happy that I don’t drink coffee, caffeinated or not. (Nor washer fluid).

Adding denatured alcohol (rubbing alcohol) to a non-winter formula can help lower the freezing point and increase cleaning ability of the windshield fluid.
Denatured alcohol is not rubbing alcohol. They are two different chemicals. Denatured alcohol is ethanol with a chemical added to make it undrinkable. Rubbing alcohol is isopropanol.

Yeah, the taste. FINALLY someone mentioned taste. That's exactly why I drink neither coffee nor beer - can't STAND the taste of either!
If you don't like the taste definitely don't drink it.

I thought this was funny - a post from Family Hand... (show quote)
I prepare the fluid myself:
~50 ml kitchen detergent
~100 ml regular alcohol (ethanol)
2 l tap water
No need to dye it... The color is the same as that of the detergent.

Watch this https://youtu.be/Z2fNQOYHWYA?si=kE2Jghv8RTc8LF9r,
I'm a coffee freak... got expresso machine, adjustable electric grinder, every imaginable coffee gadget, buy fresh beans, etc.
I'd NEVER brew nor drink decaf, I believe decaffeinating coffee is a blasphemy and should be punished by burning at the stake.

No, the process is the same for both beans.
Besides, Robusta tends to have more caffeine than Arabica

You're right except for one thing, some people have to drink decaf for medical reasons.
Ask me how I know.

Yes. I drink regular coffee because the cafeine doesn't bother me. I like to drink beer but I drink non alcoholic because the alcohol affects me but I like the taste of beer.
