It has been said that nerds get to have all the fun. We agree – but while we have fun and like to take it easy, we take one thing pretty seriously. That’s our coffee – the way we roast it, the way we brew it, and the way we serve it all play a big role in making sure you get the perfect cup every time.

Coffee Factoid of the Week: Ethiopia is widely considered the birthplace of coffee as we know it. Honoring this history, Brew Nerds offers two different roasts of Ethiopian beans; our House and Deep coffees.

Nerd of the Week:

To celebrate three years of serving “coffee for smart people” we’re asking our team to wear their inner – nerd. Check out Holly – she was our nerd of the week last week for stepping up her game and representing the nerd within.

-unknown

with that fact now pointed out (as if it weren’t glaringly obvious), i present you with the following facts about the approximate caffeine content in some various brew nerds beverages.

before i proceed, allow me to remind the non-nerds who may be reading, that
16 ounces ≈ 450 milliliters.

and now, without further ado, caffeine information for the galaxy’s preeminent coffee:
brewed coffee (450 ml) – 320 mg caffeine
average swirlie (450 ml) – 195 mg caffeine
cafe americano (450 ml) – 225 mg caffeine
cafe latte (450 ml) – 150 mg caffeine
cafe mocha (450 ml) – 175 mg caffeine
espresso (30 ml) – 75 mg caffeine
expresso (30 ml) – 0 mg caffeine

i can only hope that this serves to provide you with the data that will allow you to make an informed decision the next time you are fortunate enough to find yourself a patron of the one and only brew nerds.
