Large portion of Americans suffer from Gastroesophageal reflux disease, GERD, Interstitial cystitis (IC) or Painful bladder, and their doctor might tell them to give up or cut down on their coffee consumption. Not all hope is lost!

Typical industrial coffee has a pH level 4.85 to 5.10 and your doctor is right, it will cause issues if you have a sensitive stomach. Cafe Don Pedro has a pH level much closer to water and like thousands of our customers, you may be able keep enjoying high quality coffee without suffering from acidic symptoms.

We select green coffee beans that are naturally lower in acidity than others. But the biggest difference comes from the way we roast the coffee. Our traditional artisan roasting method gets rid of the chaff, the skin of the coffee bean. And that's great, because it not only results in smoother taste, but also in low acid coffee, since the chaff is high in minerals, which contribute to the acidity of the coffee. There is no additional chemicals involved, no watering down the taste or affecting the caffeine level. It's all in our traditional natural methods and craftmanship.

Here is the best part: Cafe Don Pedro is delicious. Lower acidity results in smooth cup of coffee. We fill each pod with more grounds than most other brands to ensure a rich, bold flavor.
