How do they classify a "cup" of coffee???

 

[tbrown]

I only had 3 cups of coffee today but those were in the mugs I have.

Is it a 5 oz cup, 6 oz cup, 8 oz cup, or 16 oz coffee bowl cup?

 

[BeanAnimal]

What is the equation to convert that to Mountain Dew? Is there a calculator?

Never mind, I build calculators.

P.S. Please don’t respond. It was rhetorical. I will post a link when ready.

P.P.S No questions until then. Lab work in progress (Do Not Disturb)

P.P.P.S This means no exceptions, or no calculator.




Carry on….

 

[tbrown]

Yes, but the calculator only works if we get the cups to coffee conversion first?

Sorry for the answer to your rhetorical question but I felt it was absolutely necessary.

One 16 oz cup or coffee (let's call this a small) has roughly 185mg of caffeine, whereas one 16 oz. Bottle of Mountain Dew has 72 mg.

So, understanding that, the ratio would be 1 (small) cup of coffee is equivalent to 2.57 bottles of The Dew. Let's just call it 2.5 to make things easier.

So my only question here is are we talking a 16 oz cup of coffee or 16 oz of the milkshakes most of you guys drink?

Given that we have marked 16oz as a small, let's call it a draw.

 

[JoJosReef]

Would the caffeine per oz not be a function of weight of ground coffee, as well as type?

 

[tbrown]

Ok, now that we have a decent reference point to draw on (see what I did there) we can wait for Bean Animal to return with a calculator.

I'm curious if he's going to make it adjustable for Dr. Pepper as well...

 

[tbrown]

Would the caffeine per oz not be a function of weight of ground coffee, as well as type?

Yes. For instance milkshake coffees typically have a darker roast of coffee bean which therefore lessens the amount of caffeine but increases the flavor so as to be slightly tastes above the flavor of the milk and sugar that's been added whereas a nice medium or medium light roast makes a very decent cup of black coffee with no milk or sugar needed. Then make it a little stronger brew for extra caffeine content and more flavor and it's even more perfecter.

 

[JoJosReef]

Can we get an espresso conversion too?

 

[JoJosReef]

I would also like to know in relation to Tea. Black tea, green tea and white tea, please. Please factor in weight of tea leaves (loose leaf, please) and steeping time. Spit spot!

 

[Slocke]

Just cancel the stimulant out with a depressant. The Jager bomb concept!

Some people will argue you shouldn’t let kids watch ‘Requiem for a Dream’. They say it’s to scary and shows people using drugs. I say make them watch it. They’ll run screaming if ever they are offered any drugs.

1 cup dark roast / .5 cup milkshake roast + 42 mountain dew * sq rt 67 green tea leaves = 4x^3 =
