Low Acid French Press Brewing?

Is this too good to be true? If you are a coffee lover with a sensitive stomach, then you may have had to consider kissing your cup of Joe goodbye. Regular coffee does have acid in it, which can often cause stomach irritation for those who have gastrointestinal disorders or acid reflux.

There is a French Press available that will keep the coffee grounds within the top of the press after brewing to prevent them from over extracting and causing the coffee to become too acidic. A regular French Press will brew with the coffee grounds in the bottom of the press, but a low acid French Press brews with the coffee grounds in a top chamber. This will still offer you a fresh and delicious brew product that is synonymous with the use of a French Press, but it will contain much less acidity for coffee drinkers with sensitive stomachs.
