Drink up on your coffee and tea! Although one thing that annoys me on these studies is the methodology: what is a 'cup' of coffee or tea? Is it eight fluid ounces, or is it a 'cup' as per the coffee maker, which can vary anywhere from 4-6 ounces? My current coffee maker has a 10 'cup' capacity, which measures out at 50 ounces.

Gonna live forever!
A cup? In the name of science I put my Keith Richards hat on once and snorted a line of matcha powder. Ought to take care of that pesky stroke for awhile.

Worked with a guy who would drink 3-5 pots a day while at work. Said he also drank a pot before leaving the house and one when he got home. Had a coffee mug labeled "Coffee Pot To Go" which would, you guess it, hold an entire pot. He still fell asleep at work, sometimes while holding the mug, never spilled a drop though. Kept a coffee maker in his work bench just in case the office one broke.

My favorite studies are the ones that point out that whatever I am already in the habit of doing is beneficial to me. Even better if they promote the idea that a single, slightly implausible change in lifestyle is likely to have widespread benefits to a heterogenous audience.

Also, how strong is the coffee brewed?
And where does the "cups" measure for a coffee maker come from, anyway? On my coffee maker, each cup works out to 150ml (5 fl oz)
I drink "6 cups" per day, as measured by my coffee maker. Comes out to 30.7fl oz. To that, I use 1/4 cup of coffee grounds.

Certainly makes for a popular phd thesis!

There is an ISO standard cup of tea.
ISO3103
there's one for coffee as well.

For our 50 ounces of drip coffee in the Zojirushi coffee maker, I grind 3/4 cup of coffee beans. I usually roast our coffee to a 'full city plus' level.

Bonus round, can you tell me where to find the standards the control the dimensions and tolerance of TIG torch parts? In what spec would I find, say, the dimensions of a collet for a type 17 tig torch?

If you have sleep problems, it don't matter how much coffee you drink.

That is for tea, not coffee. RTFM.

Due to my heart condition, I can't tolerate any amount of caffeine, but I drink decaffeinated tea.
Unfortunately, the study doesn't seem to mention what component(s) in the coffee and/or tea provide the stroke protection, so I don't have any way of judging whether or not my tea consumption is helping me.

If we're playing that game...
Manly men like their coffee good and hot. That's why I prefer to drink half of a very small cup at a time. :P

Meh on this kind of article. "Spinach can kill you!" "Spinach extends life 36.7879441% !"
Studies show 63.2120558% of studies are bullshit.
Coffee ain't coffee less'n you can chew it and have a spoon stand up in it.

Our DHC-6 pilots had some stupid tradition of having those Trader Joes espresso beans on every mission. Every time I flew on one of those aircraft, I got off with a stomach ache and a caffeine headache. :laugh:
