More than 30 percent of coffee drinkers experience heartburn, reflux, or stomach discomfort after drinking coffee. Many assume the problem is due to the pH level, but that is not the real cause. Coffee naturally contains many acids that add to its flavor and aroma. The true irritant is a compound called Chlorogenic Acid, especially CQA 3, 4, and 5. These compounds can occur naturally and increase significantly during drum roasting.
Almost all coffee roasters use drum roasters, where beans come into contact with hot metal. We take a different approach. We engineered and built our own roaster that uses patented convection technology. Instead of roasting beans inside a hot drum, our coffee is roasted in a fluidized bed of hot air. The beans never touch steel. This method allows an even roast and significantly reduces Chlorogenic Acid levels, creating a smooth, flavorful cup that is gentle on your stomach.
Our decaf is made using the Mountain Water Process, which removes caffeine naturally without harsh acids or chemicals. The flavor stays full and balanced while the coffee remains pure and easy to enjoy day or night.
If you are skeptical, that is understandable. There is a lot of confusing and contradictory information about coffee and acidity. Research by Dr. Taka Shibamoto, Distinguished Professor of Environmental Toxicology and Director of the UC Davis Coffee Center, supports our process. His studies show that high levels of Chlorogenic Acid contribute to both bitterness and stomach irritation in coffee.

Gentle on the Stomach
A low-acid diet can be recommended for people with conditions such as acid reflux, IBD, ulcers. Bariatric surgery patients can also try to limit acid. A third-party lab independently verified that Alex’s Low-Acid Organic Coffee is lower in chlorogenic acids - the main group of acids in coffee - than the average of leading national brands.
Healthy for Communities and Ecosystems
The USDA National Organic Program has strict standards that start from three years before planting the coffee beans. Alex’s Low-Acid Organic Coffee is certified organic. That means you can be sure that these potential synthetic chemicals are not released into communities where the coffee is grown, and there is no disruption to ecosystems due to toxic chemicals.
