## Q&A

**Q: How much caffeine is in a single shot of espresso compared to a double shot?**
A: A standard 1-ounce single espresso shot contains approximately 63 mg of caffeine. A standard 2-ounce double shot (doppio) contains roughly 126 mg of caffeine, though specialty coffee shops often pull double shots with 130–160 mg.

**Q: Does espresso have more caffeine than drip coffee?**
A: Per fluid ounce, espresso has substantially more caffeine (approx. 63 mg/oz vs. 12–20 mg/oz for drip coffee). However, because an 8-ounce cup of drip coffee contains 95–165 mg total, a full mug of drip coffee provides more total caffeine than a single 1-ounce espresso shot.

**Q: How many shots of espresso can you drink before exceeding safe daily limits?**
A: General health guidelines recommend a maximum of 400 mg of caffeine per day for healthy adults. That equals about 6 single shots or 3 standard double shots of espresso daily.

**Q: Does decaf espresso contain zero caffeine?**
A: No, decaf espresso is not 100% caffeine-free. A 1-ounce decaf espresso shot typically retains between 2 mg and 15 mg of residual caffeine depending on the decaffeination process.

**Q: What is a smoother, lower-caffeine cognitive alternative to multiple espresso shots?**
A: For sustained mental clarity without high-caffeine crashes, functional alternatives like OurJrney NeuroMatcha combine moderate natural matcha caffeine (~35–50 mg) with Alpha-GPC and functional mushrooms to support focus and acetylcholine production.
