Pro Tips for Tea Caffeine Estimate

- Steeping time and water temperature both affect actual caffeine extraction — longer steeping generally extracts more caffeine.
Common Tea Caffeine Estimate Mistakes to Avoid
- Using a single generic caffeine-per-cup figure across very different tea types, when actual caffeine content varies significantly between black, green, and herbal teas.
