Where Can You Purchase Acid-Free Coffee

To find acid-free coffee, opt for dark or medium-dark roast blends as these tend to reduce citric and chlorogenic acids which cause stomach distress. Coffee from low altitude regions also tend to be less acidic; lab-tested pH or chlorogenic acid levels will verify claims about decreased acidity levels; choose earthy flavors such as nutty instead of fruity ones as these usually signal higher acid levels.

As one of the best supermarket low acid coffees, this ground blend includes beans from 20 countries. Available pre-ground for drip and superautomatic coffee makers or whole bean for hand brew machines, its low pH level makes it FODMAP-friendly, making it suitable for people living with IBS according to registered dietitian Andrew Akhaphong, RD.
