Our Family Story: Why We Built an Allergen-Free Coffee Company
Our kids have major food allergies. That's why we roast in a dedicated, top-9 allergen-free environment and why we obsess over clean practices. Pangea Coffee started as a promise to our own family: coffee that's safe, gentle on the stomach, and deliciously smooth—so everyone can enjoy their cup without worry.
We understand the anxiety of cross-contamination. We know what it's like to scrutinize every label. That's why we built Pangea Coffee differently:
- No nuts, dairy, soy, gluten, eggs, fish, shellfish, wheat, or sesame ever enter our facility
- SPOKIN-verified allergen-free with third-party audits for peace of mind
- Clean from bean to bag – rigorous protocols at every step
- Family-tested – we drink this coffee ourselves, every single day

Why Clean Coffee Matters for Your Health
Clean coffee means more than just organic. It means careful sourcing, allergen-aware handling, mold-free storage, and expert tasting to keep bitterness and perceived acidity low. Our approach reduces common digestive triggers and delivers a cup that's smooth in taste and friendly to your daily routine.
What makes coffee "unclean"?
- Allergen cross-contamination – most roasteries process nuts, leading to unsafe coffee for allergy sufferers
- High acidity – triggers heartburn, acid reflux, and GERD symptoms
- Mold and mycotoxins – from improper storage or processing
- Harsh chemicals – pesticides, fertilizers, or processing additives
- Old, stale beans – oxidized oils create bitter, acidic coffee
Pangea Coffee eliminates all of these concerns. Our clean coffee standards ensure every cup is safe, smooth, and stomach-friendly.
Low Acid Coffee: Sourcing for Naturally Gentle Acidity
We prioritize origins known for naturally lower acidity—then preserve that character by keeping beans clean from farm to roastery. Fresh, specialty-grade Arabica beans deliver bright flavor without harsh bite.
Our low acid approach:
- Bean selection – we source from regions like Brazil, Sumatra, and Ethiopia known for naturally low-acid profiles
- Roasting curves – carefully developed to reduce chlorogenic acids while preserving sweetness
- Q-grader testing – certified experts evaluate every batch for balance and perceived acidity
- Taste testing – if it's bitter or harsh, it doesn't make the cut. Period.
🩺 Doctor-Recommended for Acid Reflux & GERD
Research suggests that lower-acid coffees may be better tolerated by people with acid reflux and GERD. Shop our doctor-recommended low acid coffee collection – all roasts specifically designed for sensitive stomachs.

No one obsesses more over clean coffee quality than Pangea Coffee. Our certified Q Graders guide procurement standards and evaluate every roast for balance, sweetness, and perceived acidity. Ultimately, taste is the final proof—if it's bitter, harsh, or edgy, it doesn't make the cut.
Our quality control process:
- Q-grader evaluation – certified coffee experts score every batch using standardized protocols
- Cupping sessions – systematic tasting to identify flavor defects or excessive acidity
- pH monitoring – we track acidity levels to ensure consistency
- Moisture testing – proper moisture content prevents mold and staleness
- Visual inspection – checking for defects, damage, or contamination
