Adding salt to water does not result in any chemical reactions, so the salt will not alter the pH level of water or the resulting coffee brew in any way. Most people just add milk/cream to alter the pH to neutralize acidity, but if you want to keep it black you need to use baking soda, not salt. Just a pinch, you don't need much.
