How much matcha powder would I need to use to get the caffeine equivalent of a strong, dark cup of coffee? Thanks!

A teaspoon of matcha (makes 8 oz) has about 70 mg of caffeine in it. An 8 oz cup of most coffee has a little more than a 100 (a Starbucks Grande-- 16 oz -- has 330mg of caffeine).

I'm not sure. I bought a metal matcha scooper at Teavana. One scoop on normal days; two when I'm kinda need an extra boost. I have never tried matcha hot; only in cold drinks.

the powder is very fine... like finely ground instant coffee. I put it in my cookie dough to add coffee flavor!

The base tea is black tea. So however much caffeine it contains would provided an example. For example, isn't Lipton tea a black tea? The other controlling factor is quantity of tea used and length of steeping. So there is an ability to control how much caffeine is in each cup. I not sure what 5 is on your scale. But it definitely not regular coffee strong. On that scale I would give it a 3. If you want less caffeine try buying some of the Market Spice decaf and mix it with regular Market Spice to get the blend that you prefer.

Everything you need (including the removable milk frother) plus a free assortment (12, I think) of coffee pods - several of each - light, medium, intense, and decaf. All you will need is milk. I have been using skim with great results.

I've never had Matcha. Try nuts,com. They sell bulk Matcha instant tea I think. I mix mine with crystal light and drink it for work out benefits. Sorry I couldn't help you.

It doesn't give you directions - this is just the Matcha green tea. You probably want to use about 2 Table spoons of Matcha and 3-4 pumps of Starbucks Classic Sweetener for a Grande size.

I have been frequenting the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf retail stores for years. I like my coffee to taste like it does when I place an order at the stores. When I add milk to my coffee for a latte' I use 2 heaping tablespoons. When I add the powder to black coffee I use 3 sometimes 4 heaping tablespoons. (This is for a 16 ounce cup of coffee) It really is preference! I would play with the taste until you find what works for you. Make sure you mix it good or it will be lumpy and will also become gummy at the bottom. I use a frother which works great! You can get one on amazon. Bonjour makes a great one! This powder is not only great in hot coffee but I love to blend it with cold, strong coffee or coffee extract and ice in the blender ( sometimes with milk) and blend it, it is also great in tea and the powder adds amazing flavor to smoothies! I hope this helps you?????????

Hi SundayFunDay,Thank you so much for asking =]. To be honest, I tried looking but can't find it. BUT, from what I can tell based off the ingredients, there is minimal amount of caffeine and it's from the green tea. I am sorry! I wish I was able to give you a number/percentage...but hopefully I was able to offer some type of help =\

LOADS of caffeine. The site says 57mg/oz as opposed to a Starbucks coffee having around 20mg/oz.

Well being as all coffee is different let's just say that your average cup of 8oz coffee is about 60-70 mg of caffeine. The bottle rates this stuff at 270mg of caffeine for 2 pills. I very rarely take 2 pills because 1 twice a day is sufficient for me.

It depends on how strong you make it. I prefer it pretty strong and do not add any additional sweetener. Tazo Matcha already has sugar mixed in.I use 20 oz of whole milk (substitute liquid of choice), 9 tsp (not necessarily level, often heaping) of pre-sweetened Matcha. I like to add 2 tbls protein powder to help curb my appetite throughout the day.At Starbucks, for a Venti, I think they use 5 tspns of Matcha blend and unknown quantity of sweetener. I would recommend corn syrup as a sweetener. Actually, you can probably buy genuine Starbucks Classic syrup sweetener on the Starbucks website. It depends on how strong you make it.

Depending on the use and how much matcha poured. I think maybe 60 cups. This with the bamboo spoon which is very little amount (Just one bamboo spoon)...

80 mg caffeine per 8 fl. oz cup. The product, 140 or 350 pouches, are sold bulk, without a box. All flavors are out of stock right now. Would you like to be notified when restocked?

I would like an answer too! Is the dark cup or light cup weak or strong? The dark cups has smaller dots which to me say weaker, but then again, maybe darker is stronger? The manual does not indicate which is which. It just says to dial your strength! Anyone out there that knows this answer???? Otherwise, the machine makes great coffee!!!

Wow. That's a good question. This coffee is ULTRA strong, dark dark blend. If you grind it for a drip maker, I would suggest using HALF what you normally use, unless you want a real "KICK" in the morning. Despite the dark roast, this coffee is smoother than any I've tried in its category. You won't be disappointed.

Don't know how you put a numerical value on the 'amount' of caffeine, but I think there's about 12 or 13 grams of ground coffee in each K-cup. Starbucks Verona is delicious, and it kicks like a pissed-off mule, so I think you'll find the caffeine sufficient. :-)
