I'm looking for a coffee blend that has a smooth aromatic allure with notes of olympic sprinter from Kenya.

Try this.

Put your shower as hot as you can stand it for as long as you can stand it, then as cold as you can take it for as long as you take it.

You will be alert.

I feel like a lot of society would benefit from going to bed earlier.

It can be found at adamgoodcoffee.square.site/, for those interested

Have you tried it yet? I'm interested

No, I have a favorite brand of coffee that I buy, so I won't be trying this anytime soon. I had to look it up though, because I had a hard time believing it was a real thing.

This is such a fascinating real conversation between sock puppet accounts trying to push the coffee that this ad post is all about.

Light roasts have more caffeine than dark roasts. Because they don't roast out all the caffeine.

So this coffee is actually "extra weak".

Darker roasts do burn off caffeine but it also makes the bean more soluble. Testing has concluded that in the end lighter and darker roast cups end up with generally the same caffeine concentration.

This is probably robusta coffee, which has 2x the caffeine compared to arabica.

This isn't true. Unless you're roasting until it literally takes like only charcoal, like noticably darker than a 2nd wave French roast, caffeine doesn't really roast out. Caffeine also seems to be pretty significantly more soluble in darker roasts so between two cups brewed normally with the same mass of coffee, there will be more caffeine in the darker cup. They will have almost the same amount of caffeine if you do a cold brew process.

I kind of love being wrong and updating what I know. I had to find some sources.

https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/light-vs-dark-roast-coffee

dark roasts tend to be slightly lower in caffeine after the roasting process.

That said, recent and older studies alike suggest that the difference is negligible.

This one references actual scientific studies.

I don't care how it tastes, I'm not drinking anything that has this much cringe on the label.
