I just tried a coffee... Well, I'm 23 and have never had a cup of coffee before and feel really wierd.
I mean I drink red bull and that doesn't bother me... But I feel a bit hyper and agitated.
Does this mean I'm caffiene intolerent?

Me too... Feel ill. :yuck:
Erm, yes. Coffee. It's strange one - especially a strange one to never have until you're in your 20's....
how on earth have you managed to never have a cuppa coffee????
'Cause it mings?!
Justathought...
I do drink about 5/6 cups of tea or coffee a day. Ive drunk tea since about 14, so maybe i have a high tolerence.
to the OP, you probably arent introlerant, just your body is not used to the way coffee works
Dunno... Never liked the smell.
Smells good, tastes rank.
And stop being mean to Moonrat, she's only asking about the caffiene, not asking for a reward after drinking a cup of coffee!
it is an aquired taste, I remember having milky coffee when I were a nipper! love the stuff now though, but try not to have it late at night...
:yes: - 1 cup of coffee contains about the same amount of caffeine as 1 can of coca cola. cause it depends on how many spoonfuls you put in your coffee?!!
In terms of caffiene content a mug of coffee can easily have more than a Red Bull, especially if you are drinking real coffee and not processed shite. A large latte at Starbucks for example is roughly about 500mg of caffiene.
As for caffiene though, its not as simple as it might seem, there are three slightly different types - tea, coffee and guaranna (sp?).
Same here, some people say that they can't go to sleep after having a cup of Coffee, I always have a cup of Coffee before bed.
The only time I really noticed caffeine keeping me awake was when I was at work one night and I thought it was going to be a late shift until like 3am or something so I drank like 8 cans of Red Bull in a row from the bar at work and then at 11pm (about an hour after I'd drank the Red Bulls) my manager said I could go home.... So i went home and tried to fall asleep, and I really couldn't. I was wide awake and really hyper so spent hours on the net and playing video games.
Instant? The caffiene content of that foul muck can be very low.
That's where you are going wrong.
Sometimes instant when I'm too tired to bother making the real stuff. But otherwise it's always the real shit. Jamaican Blue Mountain
