Yes. This fellow is not even consistent. If caffeine is a heat stable compound then roasting does not reduce the caffeine in a bean, but it does remove other things (roasted beans are lighter, the darker the roast the lighter the bean). And then he says that the caffeine is the same per unit mass of bean. Both cannot be true. At 3:59 he says "coffee" when he meant to say caffeine. The number of 80mg for a double shot (I have seen it in other places on the Internet) is extremely suspect, and is low compared to both the Italian tradition (where robusta is used) as well as the contemporary coffee scene (where doses have become stronger).

This is not even self consistent. If caffeine is a heat stable compound then roasting does not appreciably reduce the caffeine in a bean, but it does remove a significant mass of other things (roasted beans are lighter, the darker the roast the lighter the resulting bean). And then it says that the caffeine is the same per unit mass of bean. Both cannot be true. At 3:59 he says "coffee" when he meant to say caffeine. Even the number of 80mg for a double shot (I have seen it in other places on the Internet) is extremely suspect, and is low compared to the norms for both the Italian tradition (where robusta is used) as well as the contemporary cafe scene (where doses have become stronger). As per Illy: "An average 1 oz. illy espresso will contain approximately 60 milligrams of caffeine.", referring to One shot of Arabica coffee. A doppio by Starbucks has 150mg as per "Center for Science in Public Interest".

I know this isn't scientific but I've personally experienced something that goes against one of those points. Back in college, there was a break room that had a pot of coffee available for brew. I was rushing to my class and it was empty! So I got it started and used a cup to catch the first 6 or less oz before running to my next class. I have never felt stronger jitters from 6 oz of coffee before-- it was INSANELY strong. (Not to mention the stomach pain as well!)

Yes, that sounds logical. The first part of the extraction will be much stronger in everything (including caffeine). The point we were trying to get at was, caffeine extracts in proportion to the total coffee solution - it doesn't extract more at first, and then 'run out' half way through....

You said that an espresso has less caffeine then a plunger coffee because you use less. But I heard in another video that it's different for filter coffee because it uses less coffee grounds so a mug of coffee would then contain the same amount as caffeine as a shot of espresso. Is that true?

I’ve heard/read that the roast level effects weight and caffeine content can be greater if you measure your coffee by volume. Lighter roasts are heavier therefore volume contains more caffeine. Is that true?
@SevenMilesCoffeeRoasters
3 жыл бұрын
it's true that lighter roast coffees are more dense, so they contain more of everything per litre (or whatever volumetric measure you use). We measure coffee by weight (for a number of reasons), so on that basis the caffeine content didn't really change with roast.

I can drink coffee and feel nothing as far as a caffeine buzz, but 1 can of Coca Cola and my heart is crazy racing. Therefore, I believe that caffeine and sugar together are the real problem, not caffeine itself. I have a caffeine sensitivity, and I am very careful about my consumption. If the caffeine is naturally occurring in the product, I am fine. If it's added, I stay far away.

5:00 dark roast coffee has significantly less water content in it, in a sense it's more 'dehydrated'. which means per gram it will actually contain more 'actual coffee' than lighter roasts. This would translate to slightly higher caffeine yield ... Don't u think so? research needed . . .

If I take the same amount of coffebeans, 10g, twice. One I grind and brew in pour over technique to a cup of filtercoffee within a few minutes of brewtime. The other I grind and extract as espresso 28 seconds brewtime typically. Which cup will contain more caffeine?
@magnusdagbro8226
2 жыл бұрын
Turns out coffee tastes best when extracted to 18-22%, regardless of brew method, and the ratios and grind sizes we commonly use for each method has inadvertently converged to achieve these same levels of extraction. So the filter cup will be weaker per unit volume but contains about the same amount of caffeine. Since in both cases, 18-22% of your 10g of beans will generally have ended up in each cup.

I hear a similar guitar sound in a lot of 60's~70's rock, like in the solo of Paranoid by Black Sabbath. The solo of Black Dog by Zeppelin is also alike, I remember reading that J Page hooked his guitar right into the mixer, merely through a preamp or a DI box or something, I don't remember. So all in all, though I agree it doesn't sound as natural, I find it pleasing actually, a nice warm fuzzy tone. Cheers.

Considering the title, I feel like the script in this video wasn’t well thought out. The questions were kind of meaningless? And the answers were misleading. “Does caffeine extract first?” The answer isn’t as simple as “it extracts throughout” because in reality it doesn’t extract evenly throughout, and again this varies with brew method. “Does espresso vs other brew methods/light vs dark contain more caffeine?” Could have been rephrased under a single question “how does caffeine vary from coffee to coffee?” Which you could start talking about varietal species, brew methods, roast styles, process styles. Some have a bigger role in caffeine output than others. I feel this would have been far more interesting and informative. Thanks anyway.
