About this deal

Prepare it the way you like it best: With water, everyday coffee, or with milk for more creaminess. I was researching another post about coffee being good for you or not when I stumbled upon what appeared to be a conspiracy involving the big coffee brands!

The majority of ground or whole bean brands available from the supermarket though don't provide much more info than the instant brands do.

Is instant coffee stronger than espresso?

The laws regarding food labeling that apply in the UK are based on European Union (EU) legislation, and are governed through the Foods Standards Agency (FSA). Want to find out more about how instant coffee is made? How much caffeine is in instant coffee? Or how you can get one of our famous red NESCAFÉ mugs? Full-bodied and well-rounded with a slightly oily surface. Our iconic NESCAFÉ ® Original blend is a medium dark roast coffee that’s perfectly balanced. Dark roast coffee When I asked them to clarify, what they mean by a “serving”, they clarified that they are referring to a 1.8-gram teaspoon of instant coffee. Grab a mug and start your day with the great taste of our distinctive blend of Nescafe Forte. Our dark roasted coffee beans and advanced double-filter technology, give every mug of Nescafe Forte a bold and robust, full flavour. Product Specification

They list decaf among the alternatives along with water and fruit juice, which would seem to imply that decaf has no caffeine? Decaf isn't caffeine-free, it's reduced. In Europe, it has to be 99% caffeine-free, i.e. no more than 1% caffeine. Confusingly, gold instant coffee blends are different to ‘gold coffee’. Pioneered by an American company called Golden Ratio, gold coffee is a type of ultra-light roasted coffee It’s said to be up to five times less acidic than regular coffee and it comes in pouches, just like tea. What is different about NESCAFÉ Gold? Unless I'm expected to drink dishwater-style coffee, surely how much instant coffee I would add to a mug would depend on the size of that mug?

Is Nescafe real coffee?

Caffeine content matters because caffeine is a stimulant, and there are people who are advised to limit how much of it they consume. Here’s a rough guide if you’re wondering what the coffee strength numbers mean. But bear in mind, different brands may scale their coffees differently. Light roast coffee Actually, they made a mistake initially and told me there were 3.4 grams of caffeine in Nescafe Original, 2.3 grams in Gold Blend, and so on – which would be an insanely high caffeine content, but it seems they just made an error when trying to convert from mg to g.

I don't smoke it by the way (or anything else) in case you were thinking that I was biased in some way.I'm no doctor by the way so please don't take anything I'm saying as medical advice, if you think you should be limiting your caffeine intake then please speak to your doctor. The above info is all fine if I was asking about warnings on coffee products or safety information, but what I have asked about is the labeling of instant coffee in respect of sharing the caffeine contents per cup/teaspoon, it doesn't seem that the food standards agency have given this much thought. Since caffeine is also beneficial in some cases and could be a negative thing in some cases if overused, depending on the individual, doesn't that in some ways put caffeine in a similar realm to marijuana? If it said for example xxmg of caffeine per heaped teaspoon of coffee approx, that would make sense. For instance, some say 1-2 teaspoons, so if that's the case, if I put two teaspoons in then that's double the amount of caffeine, and if I use two teaspoons of 100% Robusta then that would be up to quadruple the amount as one teaspoon of 100% Arabica?

Obviously, I am not suggesting that Caffeine should be made illegal, and if it were then you may as well put the handcuffs on me right now cos I'm never going to stop drinking coffee! According to caffeine informer, when it comes to 100% Arabica, there is on average 145mg of caffeine in an 8 ounce (227ml) cup of drip/filter coffee, and 107.5mg in the same size cup of cafetiere coffee, and 77mg in a single shot of espresso, and double that of course in a double shot. Well to me it's the principle of it more than anything. Caffeine is a drug, a naturally occurring drug, but a drug nevertheless. Nescafé Original is the right choice for those who prefer an extra-strong and intense coffee, for an extra dose of disposition.
