At the Colbergcoffee roastery we focus on coffees that taste exceptional and also meet the needs of anyone looking for a low-acid cup.

Here’s our ranking of the coffees with the lowest acidity, to help you find the perfect cup without the sharp, sour notes.
Low-acid coffee? We know exactly how to make it
Acidity is one of the traits that has the biggest impact on how a coffee tastes. Some people look for it, others prefer a calmer, milder profile. This ranking is for the second group. In the Colbergcoffee range you’ll find carefully selected beans for which we’ve set a roast profile that brings out their full flavour while keeping sour notes to a minimum. Whether you like intense espresso or a gentle filter coffee, there’s something here for you.
