Want coffee that doesn’t fight your stomach? The way you brew can make or break your digestion, and beginners can master gut-friendly cups with a few tweaks. Here’s how to brew coffee that feels as good as it tastes!
➡️ Go Cold Brew: Hot coffee pulls out more acids, hitting your stomach harder. Cold brew, made with cool water over hours, extracts fewer irritants, giving a smoother, less acidic sip.
💡 Pick the Right Beans: Low-acid varieties—like high-altitude or dark-roast beans—are kinder to your gut. Avoid espresso if you’re sensitive; it’s an acid bomb compared to drip.
⚡ Grind Smart: Use coarser grounds to lower acidity—fine grinds expose more surface area, amping up acid extraction. A consistent grind (no cheap, mixed sizes) keeps flavors balanced, too.
🔍 Why It Works: These tricks cut the compounds that irritate your stomach lining, especially on an empty stomach. For newbies, cold brew’s a forgiving start—easy to make and gentle. Bonus: it’s refreshing!
