Question:

How much coffee is equalivent to one shot of espresso?

and what is the difference between espresso and coffee (how is it made differently)?


Answers:

Drip coffee has an average 145 mg of caffeine for every 8 oz, whereas Espresso has 77 mg of caffeine for 1.5 ounces (a typical shot). Espresso is made by pumping steam through tightly compacted dark-roasted coffee grounds. Coffee is usually made by drip (hot water poured over coffee that is sitting in either a flat or cone-shaped basket), but it can also be made by french press, which produces a more flavorful and rich cup of coffee.
