While instant coffee is hardly on anyone's best taste list, it is cheap-also in the neighborhood of a dime a cup-and can pack some serious caffeine, with 148 milligrams in a serving of Folgers Instant, a product of the J M Smucker, for example. While K-cup prices vary significantly by brand and size of package, a price of about 50 cents per serving is representative of what is available in U.S.
Keurig Green Mountain, which makes single-serve brewing systems, says caffeine content in a single K-cup can range from 75 to 150 milligrams for an eight-ounce cup of coffee. Expect to pay at least twice that for a premium brand's bean. Depending on the amount of coffee used and the brand, a 12-ounce cup brewed at home could run you as little as about a dime and deliver 150 milligrams or more of caffeine. If you make your coffee at home, you have control over the caffeine content as well as the price.
