Why low acid
Smooth by design, measured by a lab
Coffee's acidity comes from many compounds. Chlorogenic acids (CGAs) are among the ones that shape the sharp, bitter edge in a cup, and roasting time and temperature decide how much of them is left.
- 1100% organic Arabica. Arabica beans naturally carry lower CGA levels than Robusta.
- 2Convection roasted. Hot air heats each bean evenly from skin to core.
- 3A slower, lower-temperature finish. It reduces CGAs further without over-darkening the beans.
- 4Independent testing. Third-party labs test for pH, chlorogenic acids, pesticides, mycotoxins and heavy metals.

Ground or whole bean?
Fresh Ground is ready for everyday brewers like drip machines and pour-over. Whole Bean stays fresh longer and lets you grind for any method, including espresso. Not sure? Start with Fresh Ground.
How much caffeine is in it?
French Roast, Rise & Shine and Espresso are fully caffeinated. Half Caff has about 50 mg of caffeine per serving, roughly half of a standard cup. Decaf is decaffeinated with the Mountain Water Process, which uses water to remove the caffeine.
Description
If you love coffee but it doesn’t always love you back, Alex’s Low Acid Organic Coffee™ French Roast Single Serve Cups let you enjoy a bold, full-bodied cup that is gentle on your stomach and smooth to the last sip. It is perfect for anyone who is sensitive to acidity or wants a rich, satisfying coffee that is easy to make.
More than 30 percent of coffee drinkers experience heartburn, acid reflux, or stomach discomfort. Many believe the issue stems from pH levels, but that is not the whole story. Coffee naturally contains many acids that contribute to its flavor and aroma. The real cause of upper GI distress is a compound called Chlorogenic Acid, especially CQA 3, 4, and 5. These compounds can occur naturally and increase significantly during drum roasting.
Almost every coffee roaster uses a drum roaster, in which beans come into contact with hot metal. We created a better way. Our patented convection roasting system uses a bed of hot air, so the beans never come into contact with steel. This method allows for an even roast and significantly reduces Chlorogenic Acid levels. The result is a smooth, flavorful, and easy-to-drink coffee that is gentle on your stomach.
If you are skeptical, that is fair. There is a lot of confusing information about coffee and acidity. Our process is supported by research from Dr. Taka Shibamoto, Distinguished Professor of Environmental Toxicology and Director of the UC Davis Coffee Center. His studies show that high levels of Chlorogenic Acid lead to bitterness and stomach irritation in coffee.
Certified Organic by Organic Certifiers. Our French Roast Single Serve Cups feature the same premium blend as our Fresh Ground French Roast, crafted from 100 percent USDA Organic coffee beans:
- 50% Chiapas — grown in southern Mexico near the Guatemalan border. These beans share the same volcanic soil and high altitude qualities as Guatemalan coffees. They are mild and delicate, with sweet notes of brown sugar and pear, and a nutty finish.
- 25% Nicaragua — balanced and smooth, with subtle complexity and flavors of chocolate, nuts, vanilla, and a light touch of lemon.
- 25% Honduras — mild, rounded, and universally appealing, with notes of chocolate, vanilla, and hazelnut.
Alex’s Low Acid Organic Coffee™ French Roast Single Serve Cups are everything good coffee should be: rich, bold, and aromatic, yet never acidic or bitter. Enjoy the deep flavor of French Roast with the convenience of Single Serve Cups and the comfort of low acid. Satisfaction guaranteed.
