no trust me. the highly productive Kona region will supply the entire American market now that they don't have to compete with those inferior imports

That's not fair, there's also Puerto Rico and whatever the fuck Jason Mraz is doing in Santa Barbara.

I always found it much too acidic for my tastes, but that's just me

You're getting bad coffee or incorrectly brewed or something because Kona is some of the lowest acidity coffee out there.

Huh, I always thought it was one of the highest. It's been a hot minute since I've had a cup though

Guess soon it'll be the cheapest coffee on the American market 🙄

~~Shorten~~ Lengthen the brew time or switch to cold brew. ~~Over~~ under extraction and excessive water temperature has very large effects on taste

Edited: I had it backwards

Over extraction makes coffee bitter not acidic. Shortening brew time will make coffee seem more acidic.

You’re right I had it backwards
