Spotted something wrong? Tell us.
The quickest way to flag an error is email. Include the page or coffee, what is wrong, and a source if you have one. We read everything that comes in.
Report a correctionWhat counts as a correction
A correction is anything factual on decaffeinate that is not right. The common ones:
- A coffee has been discontinued or pulled from sale
- A roaster has rebranded, moved, or changed ownership
- The product page link is broken or now redirects elsewhere
- An attribute is wrong (decaf method, origin, processing, price, format)
- A description is factually inaccurate
- A coffee is missing entirely from the directory
We also welcome editorial feedback. If a description doesn't reflect a coffee fairly, we'd rather hear it than not. We won't always rewrite on request, but we read every message and revisit anything that lands repeatedly.
How to send a correction
Email [email protected]. Helpful information to include:
- The page URL or the coffee's name
- What is wrong
- What it should be
- A source we can verify it against, if you have one (the roaster's own product page, a current statement, a press release)
If you are the roaster and you're updating your own listing, please email from a domain we can match to your business. It speeds up verification.
How fast we fix things
Our targets:
- Within 48 hours: acknowledge the report
- Within 7 days: verify the correction and update the live page if it's clear-cut
- Within 30 days: resolve more complex updates that need research or a partial rewrite
If something needs longer (an annual review of a guide page, for example), we will reply and tell you when to expect it.
How corrections are handled
For factual corrections to a coffee listing, the change is made directly and the page's "last reviewed" date updates. We don't keep visible version history on every listing; the underlying data and editorial copy are simply corrected.
For corrections to editorial pieces (guides, "best of" lists, data journalism), the article carries a visible correction note. Significant updates are also logged on this page below.
What we don't do
We don't remove accurate but unflattering coverage on request. If something we wrote is fair, we will consider rewording, but we will not pretend something didn't happen.
We don't accept payment to remove a listing. If a roaster has discontinued a coffee, that's a correction and we'll do it. Payment for removal is not how the directory works.
We don't entertain blanket "remove all references" demands. If a specific page is inaccurate, we'll fix the inaccuracy. If a third party wants us to stop covering a coffee that continues to be sold, we'll consider it on the merits.
