Or cold brew it. Reduces acidity by 70%. Brewing takes longer, but IMO it's worth it.

  Careful, this will increase the power of your coffee by ~2.5x. So you will either need to water it down or drink less of it. Cold brew is surprisingly easy to make. All you need is a French press. I think you are technically supposed to do it with a coarser bean grind, but it’s possible to just leave ground coffee with a certain ratio to water on the counter in the French press overnight and you are done. Press the coffee and the morning and it’s ready. Afterwards you probably want to decant it if you don’t drink it all though

    I use Grady's pitcher packs, and I use half the recommended number of packs per pitcher, so it's less concentrated than normal. I also found they do decaf pitcher packs, so that I can avoid all that caffeine. I also mix this about 50/50 with milk alternative, currently that would be Ripple brand. Personally, I would never do cold brew in a French press. Any container will do, so long as you use the appropriate amount of coffee, and it is appropriately filtered (they make special filters for this). But I don't like using glass containers for this stuff -- to easy to drop and make a right royal mess of broken glass and coffee grounds and such splattered all over the place. So, I use non-breakable containers instead.

      I hadn’t heard of Grady’s. Good rec. I also like that they do decaf as I’ve also been cutting out caffeine.
