I'm more of a tea drinker, but my spouse really likes the decaf beans from Saltwinds Coffee Company. They're a Canadian east coast company. https://www.saltwindscoffee.com/product/decaf-ocean-fresh/?v=34f67f9dfb46
That and Kirkland decaf are his go-to's. Like OP, he also can't have a lot of caffeine anymore.
I find if I don't make my soil super chunky then it stays damp for way too long. My house is pretty humid usually so I mostly go with 1:1:1 orchid bark, perlite, and potting soil. So far all of my plants have grown well in it, though I did have a lemon button fern that loved straight soil and staying damp. I miss that little guy... Stupid thrips.
