Acidic beverages can erode tooth enamel over time, but with low acid coffees you can enjoy a cup that’s better for both your teeth and stomach.

Decaf coffee boasts a pH value of around 3, which makes it less acidic than its caffeinated counterpart. Your beans, roast and brewing method all play an integral role in its acidity profile; to find your optimal coffee experience it is key that you find the one for you!

Decaf coffee is typically produced using water or chemical solvents that remove most of the caffeine while leaving other compounds intact in its beans. For an environmentally- and health-friendly option, the Swiss Water Process utilizes only water instead of chemical solvents such as methylene chloride or ethyl acetate; this approach ensures more gentle processing than standard methods.

Decaf coffee may still contain more acidity depending on its roast and brewing method, since decaf beans tend to have high acid levels from the start. But generally decaf coffee offers low acid content that’s gentle on stomachs.

If you suffer from acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), try drinking cold-brewed, low acid coffee to decrease irritation in your stomach and relieve symptoms faster. Furthermore, cold brew decaf may provide more soothing digestion benefits than other varieties of coffee.
