    Gees you guys are cynics.  : its only a guide but if you look underneath there are 8 (count em) reference citations. I still wouldnt take it as gospel, just like any online health advice.

    Yes, you wouldnt have a 200ml espresso but you can calculate it pro rata e.g. of you drink two 25ml shots a day then enter .25 in the calculator.
    A guide or what ?

    With the gross miss direction as to the size of the drink VS Shot size...

    Then that will only shock and confuse 99% of the people who take the test; as the whole layout look as if it is a real professional site and that, thus it has to be true...


    ****************************
    Coffee - instant  200ml   62mg  

    Coffee - long black 200ml   202mg

    So by adding water I triple my caffeine intake..  ROFLMFAO.

    ****************************

    I think I will go an have another 200ml Espresso... Now how do I make one of these ?


    PS. The Quality in me... Meant I had to use the feedback function on the site and ask them to please explain Some of their data etc...

    Not holding my breath :

      Coffee - espresso  200ml     388mg  love to see the size of the PF to make one of those ;D

      No tab for Brewed coffees which have more Caffeine per cup than espresso, whoever wrote it has NFI

        Yeah, OK. I guess that answers the first line in my OP.

        Sorry to generate so much outrage :-X

        I will go out and order some sort of crappuccino concoction from McCafe or Starbucks for my penance. Whats the caffeine count for that?

          0 its all syrup flavoured  ;D

          Context and Fit for purpose  

          See one of the reference links http://www.health.nsw.gov.au/factsheets/drugandalcohol/caffeine.html  (2007)

          The context was not identified in the calculator and the MAX amount possible looks to be used; thus the usual lack of detail when attempting to get something out..  Or just an anti caffine push...

          A few mins more of thought and contacting a coffee person would have allowed a few drop downs / options in the caculator and a better outcome for all.

          And further evidence that they did not bother to look to hard at their own data sources..

          The other reference site: http://cerhr.niehs.nih.gov/common/caffeine.html

            I think zero.
            They use frogs not coffee as far as I can tell from their advertising.
