Serious question: At that point, why not take a caffeine pill or drink the powder? It's likely far cheaper and more efficient if you only drink coffee for the buzz.
- 0des 4y agoI was hoping someone would ask this, because it's a path I've crossed several times: Not all caffeine is equal, there is an entourage effect with coffee not present in anhydrous caffeine distillate.
- astrange 4y agoCoffee and tea have a lot of secondary ingredients that are beneficial in other ways. Or not beneficial - coffee has a lot of good minerals in it but also the oils and acidity aren't good for IBS sufferers and IIRC are bad for the heart. Paper filters or Swedish coffee (that one where you make it on the stove with eggshells) help there. Just for stimulation though, there's also theanine and theobromine you're missing for a better high.
