Caffeine Content

How much caffeine is in your cup of Koffee Kult?

Every cup will vary by brew method and dose amount. Here are the basic guidelines we use at Koffee Kult:

Caffeine by Brew Method

Drip Coffee: 95 mg per 1 cup (8oz)
Drip Decaf Coffee: 2 mg per 1 cup (8oz)
Espresso: 64 mg per 1 oz shot (30g)

Understanding Caffeine Levels

The amount of caffeine in your coffee depends on several factors:

Brew Method
Different brewing methods extract varying amounts of caffeine. Drip coffee typically has more caffeine per serving than espresso, though espresso is more concentrated per ounce.

Coffee-to-Water Ratio
Using more coffee grounds will increase the caffeine content in your cup. A stronger brew means more caffeine.

Roast Level
Contrary to popular belief, roast level has minimal impact on caffeine content. Light and dark roasts contain nearly the same amount of caffeine by weight.

Bean Origin
Different coffee varieties naturally contain slightly different caffeine levels, though the difference is usually minimal.

Roast Level & Caffeine: The Truth

Many people believe dark roasts have more caffeine because of their bold, strong flavor. Actually, the roasting process slightly reduces caffeine content. However, the difference is so small it's negligible in your daily cup.

What really matters is how you measure your coffee:

• By weight: Dark and light roasts have nearly identical caffeine
• By volume (scoops): Light roasts may have slightly more, since they're denser

Decaf Coffee Still Contains Caffeine

Our decaf coffee contains approximately 2 mg of caffeine per 8oz cup. The decaffeination process removes about 97% of caffeine, but trace amounts remain. If you're highly sensitive to caffeine or have been advised to avoid it completely, please consult with your healthcare provider.

Daily Caffeine Recommendations

The FDA suggests healthy adults can safely consume up to 400 mg of caffeine per day—that's about 4 cups of Koffee Kult drip coffee.

Pregnant or nursing individuals should consult their healthcare provider about safe caffeine limits.
