Coffee acidity

[H311oLHD]

A few pieces of information on the Starbucks discussion:

French Roast is the company's darkest roast, which goes against the general rule of Italian being most roaster's darkest roast.

I know many of you believe that the company's beans are charred, but that is essentially the goal/philosophy behind Starbucks' roast....it's supposed to be that dark - charred...

Back onto the acidity discussion:

I would highly recommend sticking with Latin American coffees - I've noticed that these have less acidity than say Asian Pacific coffees. African coffees are such a mixed bag, for me, it would be hard to recommend trying them or staying away...

You also could try adding more water to your brew if you notice that your stomach is being upset by that particular pot. If you get a stomachache afterwords, try chugging a glass of cold water, this will help calm your stomach down & break up the acidity.
