Coffee Tea

A standard flat white uses about 18–20 grams of ground coffee for a double espresso, topped with steamed milk and a thin layer of microfoam.

A plain Dunkin’ latte has zero flavor shots; when you add them, stores typically use 2 for Small, 3 for Medium, and 4 for Large.

Most OriginalLine capsules hold about 5–6 g of ground coffee, while Vertuo capsules range from 7 g to 17 g depending on the cup size.

A standard latte uses 1–2 espresso shots: small cups often have 1; 12–16 oz lattes usually have 2, and some iced venti lattes use 3.

A Dunkin’ large iced coffee typically gets 4 pumps of flavor swirl; ask for more or fewer to adjust sweetness.

Use 2–3 green tea bags per quart for sun tea; for safety, cold-brew the same ratio in the fridge instead of the sun.

For standard brewed coffee, 400 mg of caffeine equals about 3 to 5 cups, depending on cup size and brew strength.

Most drip brewers taste balanced with about 10–15 grams of coffee per 6–8 ounce cup when you match grind and brew time.

Most brewed coffee has about 95 mg caffeine per 8-ounce cup, so 500 mg equals roughly five standard cups of coffee.

Around half a small cup of regular brewed coffee gives about 50 milligrams of caffeine, though the exact amount shifts with bean and brew.
