I have always beleived that instant coffee had less caffeine than regular brewed coffee. So as an expecting mother for the third time, I commenced my routine of instant coffee. I have incorporated a way to lower my caffeine intake and increase my calcuim intake by exchanging hot water with instant coffee for hot milk with instant coffee. The other day I was boasting to a co-worker my favorite drink and why. My co-worker looked at me and stated that they beleived the opposite of instant coffee as it is condensed. I have tried and tried to locate information to reflect the difference in caffeine levels and have so far been unsucessful and decided to ask the experts. Which has the higher level of caffeine, regular brewed coffee or instant coffee?
