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.

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™ lets you enjoy a smooth, bright cup that is gentle on your stomach and full of flavor. It is perfect for anyone who is sensitive to acidity or simply wants an easy, satisfying start to the day.
Alex’s Low Acid Rise n’ Shine Coffee is a lively blend of Sumatran and Mexican Chiapas beans roasted in the Italian style. Each cup offers smooth caramel sweetness with light hints of white pepper and vanilla bean. It is balanced, rich, and comforting—the perfect way to wake up happy.
More than 30 percent of coffee drinkers experience heartburn, reflux, or stomach discomfort after coffee. Many think acidity or pH is the cause, but that is not the full story. Coffee naturally contains many acids that add to its taste and aroma. The real source of stomach irritation is a compound called Chlorogenic Acid, especially CQA 3, 4, and 5. These compounds can occur naturally and often increase when coffee is roasted in a traditional drum roaster.
Most roasters still use drum roasting, where beans come into contact with hot metal. We created a better way. Our patented convection roasting system uses a stream of hot air, so the beans never come into contact with steel. This gentle method produces an even roast and significantly reduces Chlorogenic Acid levels. The result is a clean, smooth, and flavorful coffee that is easy to enjoy every day.
If you are skeptical, that is understandable. There is plenty of confusing information about coffee and acidity. Our process is backed by the research of Dr. Taka Shibamoto, Distinguished Professor of Environmental Toxicology and Director of the UC Davis Coffee Center. His studies have shown that high levels of Chlorogenic Acid contribute to bitterness and stomach irritation in coffee.
