Product Review
Emilie first conceived of Mommee Coffee, during her second pregnancy, while on an 8 hour road trip from San Francisco to San Diego. She had stumbled through her first pregnancy drinking tasteless decaf brands and watered-down regular coffee and felt guilty on the days when she indulged in a full-caf pumpkin spice latte. By the time her second baby belly was in full bloom, she was fed up and had talked to enough fellow moms to know she wasn't alone. She needed to find a way to keep her cherished morning cup and be in control of exactly what she was putting in her body. By the time she arrived in San Diego, Emilie had the name Mommee Coffee and the beginnings of a vision for providing moms and moms-to-be with a delicious coffee specifically geared to their unique needs. The needs of moms and moms-to-be are many and diverse but in general moms need to feel good about what they are putting into their bodies and by extension into the bodies of their babies. Moms need to have energy to tackle their busy lives. And they need to feel like themselves in a time when so many things are changing. Mommee Coffee provides all of this in a coffee that is low in acid, chemical-free, fair trade and as caffeinated or not-caffeinated as a mom requires (decaf, 1/4 caf, 1/2 caf, full caf). And, on top of all that, we at Mommee Coffee are pretty sure that moms will find our coffee tastier and healthier than the coffee they drank this morning.
- Stay in control of what you put in your body without giving up your cherished morning cup! Half Caf Ground Coffee is naturally decaffeinated, which means you get full flavor without the guilt! Mommee Coffee uses 100% Organic Arabica beans in its coffee, delivering a smooth, creamy flavor with butterscotch and toffee notes. The sweet buttered caramel aroma will make your mouth water. The sweet, long aftertaste will extend your enjoyment of each sip. Great for both hot and cold brewing!
- Less Chlorogenic Acid for a Better Cup - Chlorogenic Acid is the culprit behind upset stomach, acid reflux, heartburn, GERD, and bitterness in coffee. Contrary to popular belief, pH level has little to do with upper GI problems associated with drinking coffee. Mommee Coffee uses proprietary convection roasters that eliminate harmful levels of Chlorogenic Acid. This produces coffee that is 100 times lower in chlorogenic acid, and gives you a 5-fold increase in benefits compared to popular brands.
- Just One Delicious Ingredient - Mommee Coffee contains only 100% Organic non-GMO coffee beans. No added sugars or preservatives and naturally Gluten Free. The decaffeination process uses only water, instead of the standard chemical method employed by competitors. So, all you're putting into your body is exactly what you want and nothing more--delicious, tasty coffee! For pregnant women and other sensitive stomachs, you can indulge in your morning cup without burning regret the rest of the day.
- Only 50mg Caffeine Per 12oz Cup - The Half Caff grind gives you exactly that--half the amount of caffeine you'd get in a cup of Mommee Coffee's full strength coffee. Perfect for those days where you need a bit of pick me up to get through the day, but aren't quite dragging. The American Congress of OBGYNs currently says that up to 200 mg of caffeine (1 - 2 cups of fully caffeinated coffee, on average) a day does not have a major impact on likelihood of miscarriage or preterm birth.
- Resealable Pouch - Mommee Coffee comes packaged in 11 oz quantities. A heavy duty oxygen barrier resealable pouch with a valve keeps your new favorite grinds fresh from the first cup to the last. To maintain quality, store your coffee in a cool, dark place away from the stove or windows. Avoid the refrigerator or freezer, as the air inside the coffee bag may condensate and create moisture. Pre-ground coffee is a medium grind, making it perfect for drip machines and reusable single serving cups.
