Caffeine in a doppio blonde ristretto shot? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Tttheo
Hey guys I've been trying to figure this one out but it's been impossible as of yet. Is there a calculator or something to figure out caffeine amount? The graphs I've seen don't have blonde ristretto.

150 mg of caffeine. 10 mg less for ristretto, 10 more for blonde.

On the app I'm seeing a tall blonde americano has 170mg, maybe 10 less for ristretto still, so maybe 160mg for a blonde doppio?
I have struggled with this for a while too!

I know we’re not allowed to tell people that blonde has more caffeine anymore but I don’t know if that applies to blonde espresso. I think the general consensus is that it’s ten mgs more than a regular shot. But ristretto shots have about 85% the caffeine of espresso shots. So a blonde shot would be 85 mgs and blonde ristretto would be 72. Roughly.

Why aren't we allowed to say blonde has more caffeine?

Not sure! It was in the weekly update a couple months ago. My theory is that maybe people thought they should charge less for dark because it has less caffeine or something? So it’s just easier to it have to explain the minute difference between the roasts. But everyone should know that lighter roasts have more caffeine.
