How much caffeine is in Bulletproof Coffee?
Bulletproof coffee blends a regular cup with butter and MCT oil, so the caffeine, about 95 mg, comes from the coffee base alone. The fats make it rich and filling, but they don't change the caffeine total.
| Serving | Caffeine | Sugar |
|---|---|---|
| 12 oz | 95 mg | 0 g |
Coffee blended with butter + MCT oil; caffeine from the coffee base only.
Will Bulletproof Coffee affect your sleep?
At 95 mg, bulletproof coffee takes roughly five hours to fall under 50 mg, just like the cup of coffee at its core. A morning one is well clear by night; an afternoon version may still register.
