Acidity in Coffee is Good!
In the coffee world, “acidity” refers to a flavor note, not to the actual acid content; coffee is relatively low in acid. Its pH averages around 5.0 – 5.1, which is more neutral than beer or any fruit juice and similar to carbonated water (which contains carbonic acid as a result of the dissolved carbon dioxide).
Acidity, as a flavor note, is the bright and dry taste that adds life to the coffee. Acidity is akin to the dry but bright sensation experienced on the back sides of your tongue while drinking a red wine. Acidity is unmistakable in most Kenyan coffees and should be evident in any wet-processed coffees. Dry-processed coffees will have a low-toned and subtle acidity.
If you are looking to taste the acidic flavor profile, we recommend trying our African Blend.
