Are all Non flavoured Coffees Gluten free?

I saw a post the other day saying folgers could have cross contamination. What do you guys think? I've recently purchased and used maxwell house and am wondering if that might have cross contamination. I bought it about a week ago, have had it 3 times and am so sick. I was wondering what might have glutened me yesterday when a friend sent me the folgers link. 

 

What are your thoughts on coffee? Are there any brands that you've had and wondered if they might have been cross contaminated?

This article is written by a celiac who also has DH (thus she has to be a bit more careful).  She is pretty conservative, but I like what she writes:

Me?  I drink Yuban brewed.    I just drank some packaged Starbucks Decaf this afternoon that I purchased at Target and brewed at home.  I do order plain coffee at shops.   I do not worry about big major brands.  I do worry about smaller coffee companies, especially if they offer flavored coffees.  I really do not have time to investigate them.  

Coffee can bother anyone.   It can be pretty acidic.   It bothers me if my Gastritis acts up (separate from celiac disease).  I drink plenty of plain brewed coffee with cream or milk and I have never been glutened by it.  BTW, I am a healed (in remission) celiac per my last set of follow-up biopsies.

Some companies that do a roasted barely alternative on same lines or plant would be of concern, as well as companies that use some natural flavors, or additives to their flavor blends. If they do them on one line then there is a good chance of slight CC via grinders, packing machines etc.

Flavored, only one company I use after doing a TON of research a few years back when we had a HUGE thread debate about coffee....look it up and please do not open that can of worms lol. I ended up calling several companies and got many of them saying they could not say it was Gluten free as one of their flavored versions was not (mostly smaller flavored coffee companies)

Try Christoper Bean Coffee for your flavored. I have had wonderful luck with them, tested them, etc. ALL gluten free.

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
