        lol one of my friends does this.

        asked me how much caffeine I drink and like idk dude I rebrew my used grounds like a disgusting person does, because it just naturally becomes decaf that way, right?

        then he goes on to say how many mg of caffeine he likes on an average day and how it varies depending on length of work day, intensity, and weekends etc

        aight dude that’s way more thought than I put into it, all I know is that I have a caffeine addiction and I’m slowly weaning myself off it

          Yeah I’m a 400-600 mg a day kinda guy lmao. I’m one of the people who answers the question like that. It’s really just because I intake caffeine from a variety of sources.

          milligrams of caffeine, not milligrams of coffee. coffee is only about 0.04% caffeine by weight, so a 250mL/8.5oz cup of coffee has about 100mg of caffeine

            I just have the machine make espressos until my mug is full. It’s not a small 250ml one either.

              I just pour whatever’s left of the pot my wife made, when she got up for work, into my mug and then microwave it to heat it up. I’m something of a coffee connoisseur.
