| *Coffee: The lighter the roast, the higher the caffeine content.
Therefore, for the same amount of coffee, a light roast, like a
breakfast roast, will have relatively the highest caffeine content. A
medium roast slightly less caffeine. A dark roast, like French
roast, will have the least caffeine. |
