Instant coffee will give you roughly 12mg of caffeine, an espresso will give you ~150mg , a regular size cup of brewed coffee from somewhere like Starbucks is around ~200mg of caffeine.
The strength of your coffee is in the brewing method and beans used. So, I guess, the effect of a cup would vary greatly depending on where you got it.
- tachyonbeam 13y ago> Instant coffee will give you roughly 12mg of caffeine I just looked it up and this seems to be inaccurate. The instant coffee I have has about 74mg per cup according to the Folgers website. This of course varies depending on how you make it. I, like many people I suspect, like to put in more powder to make it darker. Honestly, I think if people sold instant coffee with only 12mg of caffeine per cup, people would find that coffee disappointing, as they wouldn't quite get the buzz they're used to, and they'd stop buying it. I can tell you that I once drank some vegan energy drink and I could immediately tell, before reading the ingredients, that it contained no caffeine, I felt like I'd just thrown money away.
