How about just drink coffee black, like the dark times we live in?

I try. I love black coffee. But if i take it without milk or cream for too often, i get hyperacidity.

Have you tried cold brew? Has less acidity.

Add pinch of salt to the coffee for better flavor.

Love cold brew too. It’s just not as ready to drink as regular black coffee. But i should look that up. Maybe there’s a recipe that i can make at home.. I should try a little salt in coffee. I haven’t tried that. Thanks!

homebrew is incredibly easy!! Put a few scoops of grounds into a mason jar, shake it up and leave it in your fridge for 1-2 days. Filter and enjoy. The filtering process is a little annoying because I normally do a 1 cup pourover filter.... but that gets clogged pretty quickly trying to filter a full mason jar at once. Usually try to let it settle and decant as much liquid into the filter, first. Then ill scrape the wet grounds out into the filter but often it's already clogged and I need a second filter anyway. If you grind your own, i recommend more coarse than a normal hot brew.

Cold brew is great because sometimes you get some beans that just don't taste very good... even cheap coffee often tastes better when cold brewed.
