Do you have a low acid coffee?Updated 2 months ago
We tend to avoid broad claims like "low acid coffee" because everyone’s body is unique. What feels gentle on one person’s stomach may not for someone else, depending on individual health needs and sensitivities.
That said, coffee with a pH of 5.0 or higher is generally considered lower in acid (the higher the pH, the lower the acidity). Among our roasts, EASE, our Dark Roast, is our lowest-acid option.
Here are our approximate measured pH values (please note these are based on standardized lab conditions and can vary slightly):
- FLOW: 5.10
- PROTECT: 4.95
- EASE: 5.19
- CALM: 5.10
- BALANCE: 4.95–5.1
The brewing method, water temperature, grind size, and even your water source (especially mineral content and pH) can all influence the final acidity of your cup. For example, cold brew tends to yield a less acidic result than hot pour-over.
