Switching From Coffee to Caffeine Pills (gun.io)

One thing I've noticed about coffee is that the amount of caffeine is super variable. There's one coffee shop nearby that for some reason after one drink feels like I've OD'd on coffee. Others I can have 2-3 coffees. I wish there was a relatively cheap/easy/inexpensive way to measure the caffeine content of a drink in realtime.

With pills, one would assume that they are somewhat more consistent. Or at least I hope so.


Absolutely!

I find that Starbucks coffee is quite a good deal more caffeinated that what I brew at home, or the other coffee shops.

I can't imagine an extraction/weighing would be that hard, to be honest. Could be a job for a Rob Cockerham-type project..
