Just found out that cold brew is actually less acidic than hot coffee by a lot

I was reading this article on Serious Eats the other day and it said cold brew has like 60% less acid than regular hot brewed coffee. That blew my mind because I always thought cold brew was just a different taste but not that different chemically. Ive been having stomach issues after my morning cup lately so now I'm thinking about switching to cold brew full time. I made my first batch last night using some beans from a local roaster in Portland and its sitting in the fridge right now. Has anyone else noticed a difference in how their stomach feels after switching to cold brew?

So you're saying the stomach issues stopped completely? Because I've been reading that some people still get bloating from cold brew since it's basically concentrate and hits your gut differently than hot coffee. Just wondering if you changed anything else in your routine along with the switch.

Switched last month and my stomach stopped complaining completely.

Maybe your tap water was the real problem.
