Coffee contains acids, which may not pose much of an issue for most people; however, they could make things worse for those suffering from heartburn, acid reflux or sensitive teeth and gums. You don’t have to give up coffee altogether-there are ways you can lower its acidic content and find delicious low-acid varieties.

Use cool water when brewing: Hotter the water is, the more acids it extracts from beans. Cold brew coffee generally has lower acidity levels than its hot-brewed counterparts. Baking soda: Just adding a pinch of baking soda can help neutralize some of the acidity present in your coffee beverage.

Puroast and Tieman specialize in crafting low-acid coffee blends, using special roasting processes that are both stomach-friendly and rich with antioxidants. HealthWise also produces an acid-reducing brew with mild flavor; however, their packaging may not be as eco-friendly.

Golden Ratio coffee uses an innovative roasting method to keep acid levels at an absolute minimum without compromising flavor, while their instant packs require only hot or cold water to unleash their full potential.
