SO apparently if you add enough instant coffee to make it taste like a “strong” cup of coffee… its gonna contain way more caffiene than you expected. Didn’t realize it until my hands wouldn’t stop jittering.
It actually tastes pretty good but yeah. Don’t be like me. Looks like I’m definitely staying up until midnight.

Low budget speedballs
NOT MEDICAL ADVICE
it’s just coffee, that’s probably fine if there aren’t any pre-existing conditions. Don’t take a bottle or anything but a normal amount is maybe not ideal health wise but hardly dangerous to a normal person.

Drink a bunch of water, eat fiibre rich food to keep digestion and metabolism rockin and just like, do some pushups or jumping jacks to burn off energy.
To quote St Anger “Just flush it out”
I can’t be bothered to ever measure out my instant coffee, so I use decaf instead. You get a robust flavour and a respectable amount of caffeine through sheer volume.
I’m a decaf fan as well. I’m pretty sensitive to caffeine even though I usually have 3-4 cups of normal coffee a day. I’ll switch to decaf if I get jittery at all. I had 2 cups of the strong instant stuff and was immediately uncomfortably wired. I still kinda feel it to be honest.
definitely staying up until midnight.
Imagine having a sleep schedule that doesn’t involve you staying up till 2am on worknights where you get up at 7am.
I had this problem once at an unassuming undergrad event. Never again.
I will never in my life understand what “strong” coffee is. does it just mean bitter?
This may seem extremely elitist, but having had espresso, American drip coffee, and instant before, a bad espresso is better than a good American drip, which is better than instant coffee.
I get not everyone will have the resources to procure an espresso machine but a thicker/less watery 30mL shot of espresso is very good. There’s like a nutty, oily flavour and aroma that kind of blunts the bitterness of the coffee itself. It’s still butter but it’s somehow more pleasant?
I wish I had that same opinion, I hate bad espresso. good espresso is definitely the best, but you basically need to spend like $5k to get a good espresso setup at home. that’s why I mostly just drink light roast drip coffee.
Moka pots are also somewhat popular where I am, and it similarly uses pressure, and generally costs less than $40.
way more coffee to liquid ratio than suggested.
Sometimes this can be achieved by making a normal pot of coffee and letting the coffee pot sit on a heat source long enough to evaporate a portion of the water but leaving the caffiene sludge behind.
To a non coffee drinker - yeah pretty much. Stronger, usually more bitter flavor, but depends on the coffee. The instant coffee called for 1 teaspoon per 6 ounces… my mug is a little bigger than 6 ounces so I went with a tablespoon and a half. Not smart.
