Caffeine Transparency: A Guide to mg per Gram & per Serving
Share
Strength shouldn’t be a guess. We believe that knowing what’s in your coffee empowers you to build a better daily ritual. This guide breaks down the typical caffeine content for our coffees by brew method, using standardized recipes so you can predict your cup with confidence.
Caffeine by Brew Method (Typical Ranges)
Brew Method |
Est. Caffeine per Serving
|
Drip Coffee (12 oz) | ~230 – 260 mg |
Double Espresso (2 oz) | ~120 – 140 mg |
Cold Brew (12 oz, RTD*) | ~475 – 520 mg |
Ready-to-Drink (RTD) Cold Brew is made from a high-potency concentrate that is diluted 1:1 with water or milk.
How We Get Our Numbers (Our Standardized Recipes)
To ensure our numbers are consistent and trustworthy, we use the same recipe for every test:
- Drip Coffee: An 18g dose brewed with about 300g of water (a ~1:16 ratio).
- Espresso: An 18g dose producing a 36g double shot (a 1:2 ratio).
- Cold Brew: A 1:8 concentrate, steeped for 14-16 hours, then diluted 1:1 with water or milk to serve.
A Note on Your Wellness
Your personal experience can vary with dose, grind, time, and equipment. For reference, many healthy adults keep their daily caffeine intake around 400 mg. However, sensitivity varies greatly. We always recommend consulting a healthcare professional for personal health advice.
