Tips on Coffee - Is it true that espresso has less caffeine than regular coffee? (#)
„An espresso cup has about as much caffeine as a cup of dark brew. But servings for espresso are much smaller. Which means that the content of caffeine per millilitre are much higher than with a regular brew. Moreover, caffeine is more quickly assimilated when taken in concentrated dosages, such as an espresso cup.The myth of lower caffeine espresso comes from the fact that the darker roast beans used for espresso do have less caffeine than regularly roasted beans as roasting is supposed to break up or sublimate the caffeine in the beans (I have read this quote on research articles, but found no scientific studies supporting it.Anybody out there?).“

„Almost too convenient. Just unwrap, plop in a pod-enabled espresso machine, brew, and chuck, you're done. And if you do a double for a big cappuccino, they aren't all that bad.“

„You don't necessarily need espresso cups if you're making lattes but I like to use them to brew the coffee into so I can easily see that I haven't brewed too much espresso from one pod.“

„ What is remarkable about a properly made espresso is that the maximum flavor is extracted from ground coffee while much of the caffeine and excess acids are left behind. The high pressure at which extraction is done and the small volume of water passing through ground coffee account for this feat.“

„Fine coffees at any degree of roast contain roughly the same amount of caffeine (about 100 mg per cup). A single shot of espresso, while it may taste "stronger,"contains less caffeine than a regular cup of coffee (only about 70 mg.) because it is made with less ground coffee.“

„It's true, you can buy a $50 stovetop maker or even an electric one, and those make a decent cup of super-strong coffee, but it's not espresso. The real stuff -- the deep, rich brew that comes topped with a layer of "crema" even before any steamed milk is added -- requires pump-driven pressure. It also requires practice.“
